(Todd Vierling doesn't use mrtg any more :)
Changes from 2.8.12:
MRTG 2.9 is the biggest change in MRTG since the release of MRTG 2.0.
So let's hear the news first:
* The rrdtool integration allows for massively increased logging
performance.
* Routers which change their interface numbers are no problem any more.
MRTG can now reliably address interfaces by IP, MAC, Description,
Name and Type. The cfgmaker tool has been rewritten from scratch and
allows to generate configurations with any of the above mentioned
interface addressing methods.
* Indexmaker has be rewritten from scratch, it is now much more
flexible and fully documented.
* All the MRTG documentation has been reviewed and ported to perls
"Plain Old Documentation (POD)" format. This allows to provide all
documentation in text, HTML and man format. It is now all available
on the MRTG web-site.
* Config file parsing has been optimized. This makes reading
configuration files much faster. Especially large configuration files
are faster by factors
* Under UNIX, mrtg can fork into several instances while querying
routers. This improves data acquisition performance dramatically,
especially with slow networks.
* Graphs and webpages can be generated on the fly is mrtg is used with
rrdtool logging. Several tools in the mrtg contrib section are
available for this purpose.
* And there is more: MRTG has been translated into 29 languages, OS
detection has been automated, did I mention performance, many of the
contributed tools have been dated and a slew of new ones has been
added, The config file reading code is now available in a documented
library which simplifies the creation of other tools which need
access to the mrtg cfg file.
* In total, over 200 individual changes are listed in the change log
since the release of MRTG 2.9.2.
Many thanks to Keith Reynolds <keithr@keithr.com> (the author of the program)
for a very quick response and providing the bug fix. Had I been thinking
I would have asked him sooner.
This version of arla has improved BSD support, so that patches
(patch-ao, patch-ap, patch-aq, and patch-ar) are no longer necessary.
It has improved deadlock detection and many other bug fixes.
doesn't enable any functionality. It is here as a marker, so people building
binary packages know that these packages have version-specific features
that would make them incompatible with other point releases.. (such as
LKM's)
stricter requirements now present in sys/net/rtsock.c in a -current kernel.
This change is sufficient for i386, but may still not be correct for
LP64 systems or systems with different alignment constraints.
Thanks to wrstuden for identifying the kernel change that affected this.
0.5.3 -- only that 0.5.4 is the latest stable version of ORBit.
The pkgsrc-related changes are:
* Compile and link libpopt statically into ORBit. This is really a
small library, and there are more recent versions available if we
with to add it to pkgsrc. Also don't install this library.
* Compile the tcpd-specific code in libIIOP.

*4.1*
New:
- Many new command line flags have been added for input/output flexibility.

(-T TCP on the command lines)
- OpenSSL has replaced KMT for SHA authentication and DES encryption.
(Get OpenSSL from http://www.openssl.org/).

cases scotty can end up calling recvfrom() twice in a row with no
intervening select(), and can thus otherwise end up in a hang.
Fix supplied by Juergen Schoenwalder, received in private communication.
