Recent releases


Release Notes: This release includes support for dlmalloc on OSes with older (less efficient) memory allocation functions, separates the database layer, which means support for other databases can be easily added, and has completely rewritten the authentication subsystem, which now runs as a separate server thread. This means that only one instance of the auth DB is open, speeding up connection times, etc. There is improved thread safety and concurrency across DB calls, a new command 'set' was added to get/set ldb client environment variables, a new housekeeping database, and history tables (presently unused). The logging and error handling was improved.


Release Notes: A new LooperWeb Web client, multiple feature enhancements, improved security code and stability, and support for nagios, snort, and mon via Looper.
