devel/distcc 2.16 -> 2.18.3
http://distcc.samba.org/ftp/distcc/distcc-2.18.3.NEWS
Consists mostly of bug fixes. Only one change in the way distcc
works. You must specify a network on which connections are
allowed, connections from all networks will still be admitted
but connections outside the specified network will be logged
and dropped.
The 127.0.0.0/8 network is the default for the port. All
existing users and all new users will need to update/add a
distccd_flags variable in /etc/rc.conf, a template for which
can be found in the rc.d script.
Perhaps a new variable, which simply contained the trusted
network address would be better, like
distccd_network="192.168.10.2/24"

WARNING: distcc[d] performs NO AUTHENTICATION at all and should
|
|
ONLY be used in trusted networks!
|
|
|
|
NEW in 2.18
|
|
Distccd now requires the --allow (-a) argument when running
|
|
in daemon mode. This option restricts distcc to a specific
|
|
network, by default this port uses 127.0.0.0/8, you should
|
|
change this by specifying your own distccd_flags in
|
|
/etc/rc.conf, see the script in etc/rc.d/distccd.sh for a
|
|
template.
|
|
|
|
Additionally it is reccomended that you add entries to
|
|
/etc/syslog.conf to record all distccd log messages to a file
|
|
such as /var/log/distccd.log.
|
|
|
|
Example syslog.conf entry:
|
|
|
|
!distccd
|
|
*.* /var/log/distccd.log
|
|
|
|
The daemon runs on port 3632 by default. You can change that
|
|
value by calling distccd with the -p parameter, e.g.
|
|
`distccd -p 4711'. Do not edit the rc.d script to achieve this
|
|
instead override the value of distccd_flags in /etc/rc.conf.
|
|
|
|
Note that remote daemons currently won't work if they cannot
|
|
resolve the reverse DNS of the master machine
