Release Notes: New SOCKS-style proxying was implemented in lsh and lshg, supporting both SOCKS-4 and SOCKS-5. The lsh client no longer sets its stdio file descriptors into non-blocking mode, which should avoid a bunch of problems. As a consequence, the --cvs-workaround command line option has been removed. The --ssh1-fallback option for lshd was removed, and bug-compatibility hacks for ancient versions of Datafellow's SSH2 were removed. There are no bug-compatibility hacks in this version.


Release Notes: Logging of TCP/IP forward requests has been added. nettle 1.9 is included, which has some portability fixes and optimizations. In particular, arcfour on x86 should be much faster. Flow control on the raw SSH connection has been implemented. Limits are enforced on the amount of buffered data waiting to be written to the socket. General simplification and cleanup of the code.


Release Notes: The server side of X forwarding was finally implemented. The key formats were updated to the current spki draft, which is an incompatible change. IPv6 fixes and other bugfixes were made.


Release Notes: There is a new randomness generator based on Yarrow-256. Initial seeding is done by a separate program, lsh-make-seed. The manual has been updated with a new section describing the files and environment variables that are used. There are various bugfixes.


Release Notes: Window change handling in lshd has been fixed. The io-backend code has been replaced, and now uses liboop. This release uses nettle's implementations of CBC and 3DES chaining.


Release Notes: The manual was updated. X11 forwarding was added. New escape sequences were added for toggling the debug, quiet, and verbose flags. A twofish bug in nettle was fixed.


Release Notes: This version fixes a bug in random generator seeding.


Release Notes: Various bug fixes were made. Spelling and grammar fixes were made in the manual. User authentication was hacked to stop asking for a password if the empty password is entered twice.
