Default 5.2.9u

The moment some of you have been waiting for... see thread above for current limitations in 'u'nregistered build. Note that unregistered version will not be updated as often as registered version, and therefore may be vulnerable to denial of service attacks.

Beta 5.2.4-5.2.9
All:
- Fix: Broken ident/ssl

Beta 5.2.4
All:
- New: [ioFTPD] Encryption_Thread_Count
- Fix: Per client(/user) speed limits weren't accurate (during first two seconds of send/receive, user could get twice the amount of bandwidth allocated for him)
- Fix: Minor bug in ssl_accept routine (could cause connections to be cut off)
- Fix: Filesize for files between 2 & 4gigabytes was shown incorrectly (negative value)
- Change: ioFTPD uses now 2io threads per processor, when Io_Thread_Count is higher than the cpu count
- Change: Crc32 & ssl encryption was moved to encryption threads (better scalability/performance with ssl)
- Change: Minor optimizations to improve scalability under heavy load conditions

Beta 5.2.3
All:
- New: Client_inbound_bandwidth & Client_outbound_bandwidth
- New: Ident reader capped to 1kb/sec in & out (should be plenty enough)
- Fix: User inbound speedlimit (upload) wasn't working properly
- Change: Inbound_bandwidth => Global_inbound_bandwidth
- Change: Outbound_bandwidth => Global_outbound_bandwidth

Beta 5.2.0
All:
- New: Speedlimits, per user & per device
- New: change <user> speedlimit <dn limit> <up limit>
- New: %[limit(up_speed/dn_speed/ftp_logins/http_logins/telnet_logins)] cookie
- Fix: Scheduled tcl scripts cause ioftpd to crash

Beta 5.1.17
All:
- Fix: Error in DataCopy window message processing
- Change: Compiled using intel compiler
- Change: SITE Command executor is now "smarter":

Beta 5.1.15
All:
- Fix: Removed ugly message box
- Fix: Added several sanity checks to datacopy process (freeing memory area used by pending call, will not cause io to crash anymore)
- Change: Added dedicated threads (2) of higher priority (normal priority) for interprocess datacopying to avoid dead locking, when all worker threads are in use

Beta 5.1.13
All:
- Fix: Infinite loops caused by symbolic links, no longer cause system to crash (set max depth for cwd command to 25)
- Fix: Path resolver returned wrong path in certain (rare) circumstances
- New: iTCL "client" command

Beta 5.1.11
All:
- New: FIFO queues for disk-access

Beta 5.1.9
All:
- Fix: Infinite loop, when stopping active timer that was queueing job for client
- Change: Optimized client job managment

Beta 5.1.8
All:
- Fix: AsyncSelectCancel() was bugged (it didn't wait for timer to stop)
- Fix: Log system had severe bug (logging in io isn't simple writefile().. to minimize thread usage, it uses max 1 worker thread for logging & queues rest of items)
- Fix: Pending AcceptEx() calls failed, when worker threads was shut down
- Fix: Invalid message variables caused crash (those that didn't use $ prefix)
- Change: Optimized timers (I don't think they can be optimized any further)
- Change: Min_Worker_Threads & Max_Worker_Threads ini values were replaced with Worker_Thread_Count

Beta 5.1.7
All:
- Fix: Timers may cause dead-locks
- Fix: Socket closing was not "properly" synchronized, which caused wrong sockets to be closed
- Change: Rewrote listing routine
- Change: Optimized timers
- Change: Optimized message based connect&accept even further
- Change: Several minor optimizations & fixes not worth listing
Ftp:
- New: STAT command
- Fix: Master could not ADDIP on another master

Beta 5.1.5
All:
- New: Configuration file can be specified as parameter to executable (ioftpd.exe d:\foo\ioftpd.ini)
- Fix: TCL module did not return any value
- Fix: Erase of file smaller than 1kb with Modify_Stats_On_Delete caused divide by zero (broke stats)
- Change: Optimized job managment + added priorities for jobs
- Change: Connections are now accepted using AcceptEx
- Change: Optimized message-based socket use (Connect/Accept)
- Change: Active mode transfers are bound to server port - 1
- Change: Some minor optimizations (not worth listing)

Beta 5.1.0
All:
- New: Module support enabled (cookies, events)
- New: More/All headers now in source\include
- Change: Mount tables (.vfs) are no longer cached per session, but per daemon instance (uses less memory)
- Change: Messagefile parser (aka cookieparser) rewritten
- Change: Event handler rewritten
- Notice: "<EventName/SiteCommand> = ..\script.itcl" changed to "<EventName/SiteCommand> = TCL ..\script.itcl"
- Notice: "<EventName/SiteCommand> = ..\script.exe" changed to "<EventName/SiteCommand> = EXEC ..\script.exe"

Beta 5.0.1-13
All:
- Fix: Can't remember..
- Change: Cookie parser rewritten
- Change: SSL routines were rewritten
- Change: Readline routine was rewritten
- Change: SSL now defaults to 64kb transfer decryption buffer for ftp datachannel

Beta 5.0.0
All:
- New: source\Include directory (headers for developers to use)
- New: New window messages
- New: NOT (!) parameter support for commands that allow search parameters (CHANGE, STATS, USERS...)
- New: Added "ShowActivity" config line
- New: !unlock is back
- New: HTTP keep-alive support added
- New: Internal timer thread (nearly 600times faster than old window timers)
- New: Hosts.Rules
- New: Several new error messages
- New: OnDownloadComplete & OnDownloadError events
- New: xferlog (wu-ftpd/proftpd compatible transfer log)
- Fix: Infamous "Service full" bug
- Fix: Secure_Accept() could cause crash on certain circumstances
- Fix: Who shows paths properly
- Fix: Heap still was not properly serialized in unregistered version
- Fix: Bug in Secure_Accept() caused infinite loop under certain circumstances
- Fix: Worker thread counter had bug, that prevented creation of dynamic worker threads
- Fix: Two pointers were uninitialzed (oops)
- Fix: Too much memory was allocated for ident array
- Fix: Telnetd fixed
- Change: text\FTP 'login.msg' was renamed to 'welcome.msg'

- Change: User that is online may now be deleted
- Change: New, more efficient core

- Change: Groupfiles are now cached
