Consider merging or overwriting history with unofficial fork

Open samhocevar opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Hi Tom, I’m glad that rinetd has some online presence again! I would like to suggest replacing this repository’s history with that of the fork I’ve been maintaining for the last 15 years (currently at samhocevar/rinetd) that has dozens of improvements and bugfixes. I’d be sad to lose that history if your repository becomes the main place for rinetd.

Here is a summary of the major changes:

  • UDP support, IPv6 support
  • source address binding support
  • fixed various memory leaks, uninitialised data access, and buffer overflows
  • improved performance
  • use a grammar-generated parser to parse the configuration file
  • autoconf project for feature detection for Unix systems
  • Visual Studio project file for Windows systems
  • cross-compile on Linux for Windows
