* Fixed problem with multiple children being forked when using
iptables to modify the netfilter tables. upnpd was doing a
fork+system without a following exit, so children continued living
on. Now a fork+exec+exit is done.
* Included a patch from Juho Va"ha"-Herttua to fix inserting of
forward rules when using libiptc.

* Added handling of port mapping duration. Port mappings will be
automatically removed when they expire. If the client doesn't set
a duration, a default duration can be used. The default duration
can either be set as a relative time (e.g. two hours), or as an
absolute time of day (e.g. 04:00 every day).
* You can force upnpd to delete all port mappings by sending it the
SIGUSR1 signal. The SIGINT and SIGTERM signals terminate upnpd.
* Made parsing of the configuration file more secure by guarding
against buffer overflow.
* In the configuration file, the path to the iptables command is now
specified between quotes, to allow all characters to be used in
the path.
* syslog messages are now sent to local6. Trace output is sent to
LOG_DEBUG. You can specify the log level in the configuration file
by setting debug_mode between 0 (no output) and 3 (all output).
* added an example init.d script: etc/upnpd.rc.
* Some code cleanups, like only defining globals in one place
(i.e. not in an include file), and some improvements to the
Makefile.
And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Not all of these packages have been tested.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.
Service (ICS). It implements the UPnP Internet Gateway Device specification
(IGD) and allows UPnP aware clients, such as MSN Messenger to work properly
from behind a NAT firewall.
