Release Notes: Many minor improvements, including a significant security fix on Mac OS X.


Release Notes: WhoB default behavior was changed due to popular demand. New configure options were added to perform universal builds and to force gettimeofday calls instead of relying on possibly low-precision packet header times on some platforms. The build process was improved on NetBSD and Darwin/Mac OS X.

Release Notes: Behavior that automatically selects the most appropriate interface based on routing was added along with dst/src port auto-selection based on user-supplied hostnames and source port randomization. OpenBSD, Darwin, and MacOS X compatibility was improved and the whois framework was significantly revamped and now supports RIPE RIS, Cymru, RADB, and Prefix WhoIs. ASNs are resolved in bulk format after completing a trace. WhoB, a new whois client for network engineers was introduced.
