Description Michael C. Ferguson 2010-03-19 16:45:12 UTC
Hi,

Please bump net-proxy/dante to version 1.2.0. One of the older 1.1.19 patches for libpam does not seem to have applied on the latest version. I didn't investigate to see if whatever the patch was fixing is fixed upstream. Other patches seem to have worked OK. The package compiled and is running OK on my system.

Thanks,



Michael Ferguson

Thanks for the version bump notice. Assigning to maintainer
Comment 2 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-26 18:53:47 UTC
This introduces support for gssapi ( virtual/krb5 ) and UPnP ( net-misc/miniupnpc ). The latter is not yet in the tree.

1.2.2 released in September:

'Inferno Nettverk A/S, Oslo, Norway
Tuesday, September 21, 2010


Inferno Nettverk A/S is pleased to announce a new release of
Dante - a free socks proxy client/server implementation for UNIX.

Dante is being developed by Inferno Nettverk A/S, a UNIX consulting
company located in Oslo Research Park, Norway.

Inferno Nettverk specializes in services related to software development
and porting on UNIX/Linux and embedded/real-time platforms.

Please see http://www.inet.no/english/services.html for more information
about our services.

Dante is free software, available under a BSD-like license.
Inferno Nettverk also provides commercial services related to Dante.
These services include support via phone and email, customized
installations/tuning of Dante, development, porting and embedding.

The Dante software consists of two parts, packed into one archive.
1) The server part, supporting socks v4 and socks v5.
2) The client part, supporting socks v4, socks v5, http v1.0, and UPnP.

In addition to standard socks authentication methods, Dante includes
the following additional methods: pam and rfc931 (ident).

Dante also includes an extension to the socks v4/v5 protocols which
provides a more generic bind(2) functionality, similar to what
non-socks programs expect.  This makes it possible to run standard
server applications, like e.g. ftpd, behind the Dante server.

This is a maintenance release mostly intended to fix a few bugs.
Compared to the previous release, this version brings amongst other
changes the following:

Generic changes:
 o Compilation fixes for AIX 6.1.
   Problem reported by Ralf Wenk <iz-dante-0910@hs-karlsruhe.de.example.com>.
   Note to Ralf Wenk: we have been unable to contact you on the email
   address you send from.

Server changes:
 o Improved PAM-related code, including fixing a bug introduced in 
   1.2.0 that could leak resources.

Client changes:
 o Added support for handling getsockopt(2) on SO_ERROR, to improve
   detection of network errors for programs that are socksified.

See the NEWS file for a more complete list.
Known problems: see the BUGS file.

Special compatibility notes for users upgrading from the previous
official version of Dante:
  Server part  : None
  Client part  : None
  Dante Modules: Please contact Inferno Nettverk for new versions of
                 the following modules, free of charge:
                    - Session module.
                    - Bandwidth module.

There was also 1.2.1, relnotes here: http://www.inet.no/dante/announce-1.2.1.

Thanks.

Updated the bug title to reflect the current version. I have not tested the ebuild against 1.2.2. Can anyone confirm it works with just the version bump?
Comment 5 Tim Harder gentoo-dev 2011-06-07 06:08:43 UTC
Bumped to 1.2.3 in CVS.

I couldn't get UPnP support using miniupnpc working in a trivial amount of time so it's disabled for now. Currently the build throws a few errors when compiling the UPnP related code. Patches welcome.
