Apache Directory Server 1.5.5 released !
----------------------------------------

The Apache Directory team is proud to announce that the long expected 1.5.5 version has been released yesterday.

Downloads are available at 
http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/1.5/downloads.html


What's new ?
------------

- More than 62 bugs have been fixed.
- We switched to MINA 2.0.0-M6
- entryUUID and entryCSN are now injected for every new entry
- huge search requests don't eat all the memory
- Addition of a Client-API (eliminary work)
- Jetty has been integrated into the server
- Addition of a Journal
- The server.xml file has been modified

Change in Server.xml
--------------------

<defaultDirectoryService...> takes some new attributes :
- replicaId (an integer) OPTIONAL
- maxPDUSize (an integer, the maximum number of bytes a incoming message can be) OPTIONAL

<interceptors> :
- the <referralInterceptor/> bean must be present

servers : the configuration has changed for all the servers (changePasswordServer, kdcServer, ntpServer, dnsServer. They all take a <transports> set of transports, instead of sharing some
SocketAcceptor/DatagramAcceptor. For instance :

<kdcServer ipPort="60088">
  <directoryService>#directoryService</directoryService>
  <datagramAcceptor>#datagramAcceptor</datagramAcceptor>
  <socketAcceptor>#socketAcceptor</socketAcceptor>
</kdcServer>


becomes :

<dnsServer>
  <transports>
    <tcpTransport port="8053"/>
    <udpTransport port="8053"/>
  </transports>
  <directoryService>#directoryService</directoryService>
</dnsServer>

The <LdapService> bean has been renamed <LdapServer>, to have a consistent naming scheme.

<LdapServer> supports both the LDAP and LDAPS protocols, the transports are used to define
LDAPS if needed. :

  <transports>
<tcpTransport address="0.0.0.0" port="10389" nbThreads="8" backLog="50" enableSSL="false"/>
    <tcpTransport address="localhost" port="10686" enableSSL="true"/>
  </transports>

The second transport is used for SSL

<ApacheDS> bean does not contain a reference to a directory service anymore, each server which need to rely on such a service will refer it into its own configuration.
