The features are: - show stats for detail files Arguably a bug that it wasn't there originally. Added because people ran into problems where they couldn't see what was going on with a detail file The control socket isn't enabled in the default install, either. - documentation - better DHCP Option 82 support Arguably a bug: DHCP servers need Option 82 support. This affects only people who use DHCP. (i.e. not many) - enabled "server" in NAS table arguably a bug that it wasn't there a year ago. Only affects *new* installations who use SQL. For me, all of these fall into the "arguably a bug fix" area. There are no major code changes, and will not affect existing systems. > The one bug I was most concerned about I don't see specifically called > out and I'm wondering what the disposition of that was.

Does > that ring a bell? Does this update address that issue? Yes. Bug #35. There's a work-around which should help. I've run *billions* of packets through the server on the same machine as people who claim to have problems. I've been unable to reproduce the issue. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
