This allows + BackupPC to order some directory operations by inode, which on + some file systems (eg: ext3) can results in a 20-30% performance + gain. On other file systems there is no real improvement. This + optimization is turned on automatically if IO::Dirent is installed. + +* Added sorting by column feature to host summary table in CGI + interface. Implemented by Jeremy Tietsort. + +* Added FreeBSD init.d file provided by Gabriel Rossetti. + +* Applied small patch from Sergey to lib/BackupPC/Xfer/Tar.pm that makes + it ignore "socket ignored" error on incrementals. + +* Applied small patch from Sergey to bin/BackupPC_archiveHost. + +* Added RsyncdUserName to the config editor. Reported by Vicent Roca Daniel. + +* configure.pl clears $Conf{ParPath} if it doesn't point to a valid + executable. + +* Added freebsd-backuppc init.d script from Gabriel Rossetti. + +* Added documentation for BackupPC_tarPCCopy, including use of -P option + to tar suggested by Daniel Berteaud. + +* Config editor now removes white space at start of exec path. + Reported by Christoph Iwasjuta. + +* CgiDateFormatMMDD == 2 gives a YYYY-MM-DD format for CGI dates, + suggested by Imre. + +#------------------------------------------------------------------------ +# Version 3.0.0, 28 Jan 2007 +#------------------------------------------------------------------------ + +* BackupPC_sendEmail now correctly sends admin email if backups + were skipped because the disk was too full, reported by Dan + Pritts. + +* BackupPC_Admin now uses $Conf{UmaskMode}, so config.pl files + written by the editor have more restrictive permissions. + Reported by Tim Massey. + +* Host summary now shows active backups on disabled hosts, + from Jono Woodhouse. + +* Fixed host LOG link and LOG list order, reported by Tim Massey. + +* Moved Encode.pm version check to start of configure.pl so it + produces a useful error message if Encode.pm is too old. + +* Fixed hrefs to configuration documentation to handle changes + in the way perl generates the anchors. Reported by Philip + Gleghorn. + +* Host name links in LOG files now allow "." in the host name. + Reported by Jean-Michel Beuken. + +* Fixes to lib/BackupPC/Xfer/Tar.pm for tar 1.16: allow 1 + (ie: 256) as a successful exit status and match "Total + bytes read" message for restores. First reported by + Torsten Sadowski and debugged by Ralf Gross and Holger + Parplies. + +#------------------------------------------------------------------------ +# Version 3.0.0beta3, 3 Dec 2006 +#------------------------------------------------------------------------ + +* Removed default paths from conf/config.pl so configure.pl will + determine the correct ones at install time. Avoids problem of + the config editor complaining about bad executable paths the + first time you use it. + +* Changed first byte of compressed files with rsync checksums appended + to 0xd7 to allow correct protocol_version >= 27 md4 checksums to be + written. Old cached checksum files have a first byte 0xd6 and are + now considered to be uncached. They will be automatically updated + as needed. This avoids the cached checksum warnings in beta2. + +* BackupPC_tarPCCopy now handles all file types correctly. Reported + by George Avrunin. + +* Fixed BackupPC_nightly to finish pending deletes before renaming + pool chains. + +* Fixes for rsync restore where hardlink is to file outside of the + top-level restore directory. Reported by George Avrunin, who helped + with debugging. + +* Fixes for checksum mismatch on restore for certain file sizes. + Reported by George Avrunin and others. + +* Fix for config.pl writing code to handle multi-line expressions. + Reported by David Relson and others. + +* Fix for CGI editor when deleting hash entries whose keys are + non alphanumeric.
