Warning to those who aren't me: this is an unorganized list of things
|
|
that might be classified as bugs, improvements, random thoughts or
|
|
suggestions. Hopefully it will get cleaned up over time (yeah,
|
|
right!).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
- Telnet protocol should be improved
|
|
- Not even RFC 854 compliant...or maybe it is (as of 8.1.0)
|
|
- Option negotiation semi-ignored - should we negotiate anything more?
|
|
- Others?
|
|
|
|
- syslog?
|
|
Daniel E. Singer <des@cs.duke.edu> would like to see it - especially
|
|
in regards to --use-libwrap code
|
|
|
|
- alternate (md5) password encryption support in conserver.passwd
|
|
- actually happens if the crypt() call supports it, like under linux
|
|
- hpux has bigcrypt() also, which we support, so maybe we're covered
|
|
|
|
- config file examples for various configurations
|
|
- sample conserver.cf has some...but it's not explained well
|
|
|
|
- per-line timestamps
|
|
- only when not connected?
|
|
|
|
- pipe input/output (console <-> program) via 'console'
|
|
- some apps (net-ups thing, gdb) might need to talk to user
|
|
- ^Ec| does this, but the interact with user bits might not work
|
|
- actually, ^Ec| does work right with 8.1.0...one change that might
|
|
be nice is the ability to NOT watch the i/o pass to the local
|
|
command - try sending a big file to the local host with xmodem.
|
|
|
|
- autologout? setting per console? gack, would have to interpret data.
|
|
- this will never happen...i don't want to interpret data
|
|
|
|
- "listen" capability (watch all/multiple consoles)
|
|
|
|
- send data to multiple consoles (carbon copy) -
|
|
Steve Lammert <slammert@panasas.com>
|
|
|
|
- authentication to terminal servers (ssh, passphrase, whatever)
|
|
- ssh should probably just be handled by invoking the ssh command.
|
|
so, that's really already covered, no?
|
|
- passphrase...hmmm..could really use some sort of send/expect
|
|
thing here. you could write a wrapper script of sorts, but it
|
|
really would be nice to have a raw socket and do the right thing.
|
|
- this does work, using the 'initcmd' option, so, all done?
|
|
|
|
- cyclades ts1000/2000 port : "Moses, Joel" <jmoses@deloitte.com>
|
|
|
|
- strftime() idea for logfile names : Lars Kellogg-Stedman <lars@larsshack.org>
|
|
|
|
- 9600baud log replay?
|
|
|
|
- server -M flag should accept multiple addresses (comma separated)
|
|
- should client as well?
|
|
- this may never happen...does anyone really need it?
|
|
|
|
- automatic log rotation in general : Egan Ford <egan@us.ibm.com>
|
|
|
|
- website docs on serial port configs
|
|
- PCs (solaris x86, linux, *bsd, etc)
|
|
- lilo
|
|
- bios support
|
|
|
|
- suggestions by Trevor Fiatal <trevor@seven.com>
|
|
- include server hostname on 'console -x' output
|
|
- i think the -i output covers it, but maybe not
|
|
|
|
- ability to configure strings to be sent to a console periodically :
|
|
Greg A. Woods <woods@planix.com>
|
|
|
|
- show attach/detach events to/of spy console clients : Greg A. Woods
|
|
<woods@planix.com>
|
|
|
|
- redefine client escape sequence in conserver.cf : Toby Gerhart
|
|
<toby.gerhart@eds.com>
|
|
- not even sure if this is possible w/o confusing the client,
|
|
but maybe with the new 8.1.0 client-server protocol, we can!
|
|
|
|
- log rotation by date : Tom Pachla <tom.pachla@nlc-bnc.ca>
|
|
|
|
- strict file permission checks on conserver.passwd/conserver.cf : Erik
|
|
Sjolund <erik.sjolund@sbc.su.se>
|
|
|
|
- netgroup support? : Nikolaos Papavassiliou
|
|
<Nikolaos.Papavassiliou@reuters.com> and Phil Dibowitz <phil@usc.edu>
|
|
|
|
- send sequences to console on client connect? (to repaint screen,
|
|
for example) : John Cagle <jcagle@gmail.com>
|
|
|
|
- uucp locks : Sebastian Zagrodzki <sebek@heron.net.icm.edu.pl>
|
|
|
|
- support more than 9 break sequences : Danish Mirza <Danish@lehman.com>
|
|
thought it was easy, but adding more than could break things with
|
|
current encoding. doable, will have to think harder about it.
|
|
|
|
- reintroduce console grouping : Martin Turba
|
|
<martin.turba@igd.fraunhofer.de>
|
|
|
|
- quick-recheck of down consoles (for uds) and possibly only log state
|
|
changes (instead of each try) : DJ Gregor <dj@gregor.com>
