This version fixes a recurrent gremlin in the tap driver for Mac. If you are
having this issue, you should reinstall the tap.
If you're already running ZT1, shut it down (sudo killall zerotier-one) and
then do:
sudo kextunload /Library/Application\ Support/ZeroTier/One/tap.kext
This should unload the old version. Then type 'sudo make install-mac-tap' in
the ZT1 source home directory and the new version will be installed. ZT1 will
load the module again when it next starts.
In addition to a fix, I am now distributing tap binaries and it is no longer
built in the default Makefile. This is because Apple's in the midst of some
changes that have made building it somewhat difficult.
Another note for Mavericks users:
The first time you use ZT1, you will get a popup about unsigned kernel
extensions. This will vanish once we're out of beta and have signing keys
and signed drivers.
Other changes in this version:
* Minor improvement to Utils::getSecureRandom
* Bug fixes and a small change to certificates of membership for private
networks, which now appear to be working very well!
* Stubbed out messages for auto-update, which will be done in-band via
the ZT1 protocol. Not implemented yet.
This version removes the peer DBM present in earlier releases. It is not necessary for
regular clients and has been a source of problems.
There is a long-term identity cache that can be enabled by making a directory called
"iddb.d" in the home folder and restarting ZT1. This is probably something only our
supernodes would need, since regular nodes can easily WHOIS peers they've forgotten
about.
On shutdown, the peer database is dumped to disk. It's then restored on startup.
Peers that have not been used in a while are cleaned out, so this keeps this data
set small.
A DBM may re-appear later if it's needed, but for now it was YAGNI.
Version 0.6.0 marks the transition of ZeroTier One from ALPHA to BETA.
Major updates to the web site and binary packages for MacOS and Linux
are coming soon, followed by Windows soon thereafter.
This version contains a number of changes including:
* Speed improvements to encryption
* A new much-improved identity algorithm, which unfortunately requires an
identity regeneration. This should happen automatically, and should be
the last time for a good long while assuming there's nothing wrong with
what's here.
* Cleaned up the Network::Config mess in the code, factored out Config
into its own NetworkConfig class.
* Lots of work to support private networks, which are still in testing.
Concurrent with the web site update will be another minor release to
include any fixes there.
* Some changes to the protocol for better future-proofing.
* Netconf support for ARP caching parameters configurable on per-network
basis.
You must update to stay connected to the network; this version will not
talk to 0.5.0. After this, I'm going to be much more reluctant to make
incompatible changes.
