0.88 Jun 21 2005
- Change maintainer back to paul@seamons.com (Paul Seamons)
- Add run_n_children_hook to prefork servers (At suggestion of
James Fitzgibbon and Paul B. Henson)
- Make delete child only delete children it knows about.
Fixes ancient bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=168784
filed by Christian Mock and worked on by Lucas Filipozzi.
- Store $ENV{PWD} as part of script name for HUP'ing (Russel Pettway)
- Allow PreFork and PreForkSimple to have child mark
explicitly as done the same as other server types via
the ->done(1) call. (Idea from Marc Martinec)
- After numerous requests, the CHLD SIGNAL is now
set to DEFAULT in the child process of PreFork and
PreForkSimple servers. This should allow grand child processes to
run without affecting the child process (or parent).
- Fix parent/child communication channel buffering issue (Matt Sergeant)
- Check for child's sock before closing with
child_communication enabled (Alexander Hlawenka)
- Documentation fix (Mark Morgan)
- Allow 'stream' option for syslog_logsock property (Daniel Matuschek)
- Fix syslog format vulnerability. (Carlos Velasco) This has
potential to break some log implementations that were
planning on ->log passing all of @_ to syslog. Now only the
first item from @_ is passed as the message.
- Allow for '-' in group names. (Corey Minyard)
- Prevent locking caused by interupt of flock (Dietmar Maurer [cpan #11693])
- Finally fix UID/GID bugs during daemonization. This is the
biggest bug winner. The new model Calls POSIX::setuid and
setgid and tests for success by checking the values of $<
and $( and not by checking the response of the setuid/setgid functions.
- Add CIDR style lookups for allow/deny using cidr_allow and
cidr_deny (Carsten Wolff)
- Allow for port configured in perl to not have to be arrayref.

http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/net-server.patch
- Add a fix in the argument handling of configure

perl(IO::Muliplex) and perl(IO::Socket::SSL)
rpms are installed just to use Net::Server.
