251 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
252 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
253 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
254 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
255 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
256 reported by Frank Sweetser.
257 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to
258 read it sequentially -- optimization.

325 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
326 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
327 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes
328 a best guess at the algorithm, and if it is not correct, will
329 then revert to the old code which reads the file after it is
331 kes Implement at least one missing crypto stream in stream_to_ascii()
332 kes Apply patch from William <chowmeined@gmail.com> that fixes bug

335 Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
337 kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
338 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
339 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
340 and should fix bug #886.
341 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
342 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.

674 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
675 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
676 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
677 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

724 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
725 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
726 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
727 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.

764 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
766 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
767 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
768 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
770 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
771 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
772 amount of duplicated code.

864 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
865 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
867 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
868 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
869 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
871 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
872 than English. Fixes bug #788.
874 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
876 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
877 It will be fixed soon.
878 If you want to use this, you can apply
879 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
881 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
882 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
883 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
884 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
885 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
886 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
887 update volume=xxx frompool
888 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
891 RecyclePool = Scratch
895 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
896 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
897 that returns more information and will make it easier
898 to interface to the Director from a program.
900 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
901 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
902 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
903 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
904 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
905 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
906 the Changer Command to an empty string.
908 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
909 in a single write() request rather than in two.
910 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
911 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
913 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
914 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.
915 kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
916 kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782 -- scheduler problem.
918 kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.

923 was opened, it is closed.
925 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
926 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
927 in the case of orphaned records.
928 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
929 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
930 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
931 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
932 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
933 happens to the ScratchPool?
934 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
935 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
936 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
937 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
938 times are in Bacula units.
939 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
941 kes Update projects list.
943 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
944 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
945 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
946 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
947 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
949 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
950 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
951 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
953 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
954 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
956 Switch to using Subversion
957 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
959 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
960 plus the entrypoints.
961 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
962 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
963 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
965 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
966 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
968 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
969 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
970 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
972 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
973 problem is with read or append.
975 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
976 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
977 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
978 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
979 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
980 (i.e. migration jobs).
981 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
982 a memory leak problem.
983 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
984 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
985 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
986 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
987 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
988 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
989 (hides some of the ugly casting).
990 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
991 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
992 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
993 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
994 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
995 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
996 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
997 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
998 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1000 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1002 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.

1010 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
1012 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
1013 which should restart an indefinite # of times.

1019 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
1021 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
1023 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
1024 backup. This should fix bug #755.
1025 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
1029 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
1030 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.

1033 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
1035 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
1036 This *should* fix bug #747.
1037 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
1040 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1041 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1042 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1043 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1044 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1045 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
