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

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

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

668 kes Some time in March, a Feature Request with patch from Jorj Bauer
669 <jorj@seas.upenn.edu> was committed by Landon (with my approval).
671 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
672 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
673 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
674 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place
675 of hostname matching against the Certificate's CN. As an example, we

719 ebl Check size and age of each file after its backup to see if
720 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
721 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
722 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
723 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
724 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.

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

844 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
845 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
847 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused

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

920 was opened, it is closed.
922 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
923 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
924 in the case of orphaned records.
925 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
926 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
927 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
928 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
929 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
930 happens to the ScratchPool?
931 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
932 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
933 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
934 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
935 times are in Bacula units.
936 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
938 kes Update projects list.
940 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
941 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
942 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
943 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
944 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
946 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
947 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
948 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
950 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
951 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
953 Switch to using Subversion
954 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
956 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
957 plus the entrypoints.
958 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
959 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
960 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
962 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
963 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
965 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
966 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
967 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
969 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
970 problem is with read or append.
972 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
973 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
974 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
975 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
976 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
977 (i.e. migration jobs).
978 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
979 a memory leak problem.
980 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
981 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
982 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
983 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
984 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
985 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
986 (hides some of the ugly casting).
987 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
988 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
989 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
990 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
991 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
992 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
993 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
994 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
995 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
997 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
999 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
1000 kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.

1018 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
1020 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
1021 backup. This should fix bug #755.
1022 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.

1030 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
1032 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
1033 This *should* fix bug #747.
1034 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
1037 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1038 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1039 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1040 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1041 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1042 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
