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

360 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
361 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
362 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes
363 a best guess at the algorithm, and if it is not correct, will
364 then revert to the old code which reads the file after it is
366 kes Implement at least one missing crypto stream in stream_to_ascii()
367 kes Apply patch from William <chowmeined@gmail.com> that fixes bug
368 #877 where a reload with bad syntax causes Dir to exit.
370 Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
372 kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
373 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
374 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
375 and should fix bug #886.
376 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
377 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.

411 kes Fix a seg fault in the PostgreSQL driver dereferencing a NULL pointer.
413 kes Implement SQLITE3_INIT_QUERY in version.h that can do an initial
414 query for SQLite3. Use it to set PRAGMA synchronous = OFF. This
415 makes SQLit3 run 30 times faster, though a bit less safe.

426 Prefer Mounted Volumes = no.
427 kes Fix a Bacula PostgreSQL bug dereferencing a NULL pointer
428 returned from a query.

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

758 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
759 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
760 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
761 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an

799 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
801 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks

803 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
805 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
806 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
807 amount of duplicated code.

899 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
900 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
902 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
903 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
904 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
906 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
907 than English. Fixes bug #788.
909 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
911 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
912 It will be fixed soon.

914 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
916 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
917 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
918 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
919 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
920 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
921 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
922 update volume=xxx frompool
923 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
926 RecyclePool = Scratch
930 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
931 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
932 that returns more information and will make it easier
933 to interface to the Director from a program.
935 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
936 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
937 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
938 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
939 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
940 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
941 the Changer Command to an empty string.
943 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
944 in a single write() request rather than in two.
945 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
946 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
948 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files

962 in the case of orphaned records.
963 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
964 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
965 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
966 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
967 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
968 happens to the ScratchPool?
969 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
970 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
971 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
972 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
973 times are in Bacula units.
974 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
976 kes Update projects list.
978 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
979 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
980 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

982 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
984 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
985 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
986 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
988 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
989 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
991 Switch to using Subversion
992 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
994 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
995 plus the entrypoints.
996 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
997 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
998 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1000 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1001 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1003 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1004 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1005 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1007 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1008 problem is with read or append.
1010 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1011 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1012 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1013 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1014 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1015 (i.e. migration jobs).
1016 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1017 a memory leak problem.
1018 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1019 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1020 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1021 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1022 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1023 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1024 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1025 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1026 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1027 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1028 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1029 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1030 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1031 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1032 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1033 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1035 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1037 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.

1075 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1076 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1077 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1078 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1079 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1080 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
