43 kes Fix db_escape_string() for MySQL which did not compile.
45 kes Fix error message that was clobbered when Dir tells SD it does not
46 have write permission on Volume. This should fix a minor point
47 in bug #942, but not the main problem.

342 spurious line drops when using TLS.
343 kes Do not file reparse points when restoring a file that already
346 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
347 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
348 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
349 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
350 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
351 reported by Frank Sweetser.
352 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to
353 read it sequentially -- optimization.

387 kes Tweak debug code in autochanger reservation.
389 kes Add some additional locking in the cats directory in subroutines
390 that modify packet variables called from batch insert.
391 kes Rework how dcrs are allocated. new_dcr() can now be called
392 with an existing pointer, and it will simply clean it up.
393 This allows the reservation system to test various different
394 devices, and will permit easy device changes.
395 kes A bunch of changes all over to handle new new_dcr() calling
397 kes Work more on the Volume management in the SD. Remember Volumes
398 for tape drives and for autochangers (even virtual disk changers).

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

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

763 kes Change the name of gnome-console to bgnome-console to make it
766 kes Some time in March, a Feature Request with patch from Jorj Bauer
767 <jorj@seas.upenn.edu> was committed by Landon (with my approval).
769 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
770 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
771 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
772 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

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

859 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
861 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
862 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
863 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
865 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
866 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
867 amount of duplicated code.
868 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
869 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
870 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version

883 that the tape position has not been changed. If so fail the
885 kes Fix Win32 build for dlls to add the folllowing:
886 src/lib/bsock.c -- new file with new entry points
887 src/lib/dlist.c -- new entry points
888 src/cats/sql_create.c -- new entry point

896 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
897 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director
898 to after we drop privileges. This avoids the need for both root
899 and bacula access to the DB.
900 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
901 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
902 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.

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

959 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
960 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
962 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
963 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
964 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
966 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
967 than English. Fixes bug #788.
969 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
971 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
972 It will be fixed soon.
973 If you want to use this, you can apply
974 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
976 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
977 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
978 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
979 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
980 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
981 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
982 update volume=xxx frompool
983 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
986 RecyclePool = Scratch
990 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
991 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
992 that returns more information and will make it easier
993 to interface to the Director from a program.
995 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
996 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
997 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
998 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
999 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
1000 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
1001 the Changer Command to an empty string.
1003 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
1004 in a single write() request rather than in two.
1005 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
1006 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
1008 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
1009 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.

1020 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
1021 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
1022 in the case of orphaned records.
1023 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1024 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1025 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1026 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1027 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1028 happens to the ScratchPool?
1029 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1030 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1031 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1032 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1033 times are in Bacula units.
1034 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1036 kes Update projects list.
1038 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1039 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1040 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
1041 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
1042 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1044 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1045 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1046 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1048 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1049 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1051 Switch to using Subversion
1052 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1054 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1055 plus the entrypoints.
1056 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1057 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1058 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1060 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1061 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1063 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1064 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1065 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1067 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1068 problem is with read or append.
1070 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1071 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1072 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1073 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1074 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1075 (i.e. migration jobs).
1076 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1077 a memory leak problem.
1078 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1079 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1080 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1081 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1082 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1083 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1084 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1085 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1086 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1087 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1088 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1089 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1090 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1091 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1092 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1093 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1095 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1097 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
1098 kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.

1120 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
1124 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
1125 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.

1131 This *should* fix bug #747.
1132 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
1135 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1136 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1137 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1138 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1139 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1140 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
