2006.08.06
Versions: Unix, Released: 2006.08.06

2007.01.07
Versions: Unix, Released: 2001.01.07
What: License change, Darwin and Linux fixes, OpenBSD 4.0, MTU support
The fixlist:
- 2007 Edition of AICCU
- License change to standard 3-clause BSD license.
With thanks to Theo de Raadt, Marco d'Itri and Philipp Kern for
their wise words and reasoning for coming to this decision
- High urgency because of the above and it fixing large problems.
- Fixed Mac OS X / Darwin support on the MacBookPro of Pim van Pelt.
- Added MTU, from TIC, configuration on most platforms.
- Fixed up silly linux bug, adding LL address to tunnels but not to tun/taps.
- Removed Win32 Alpha Endianess (reported by Christian Weisgerber).
- Fixed up alignment error in parseline() (reported by Christian Weisgerber).
- OpenBSD 4.0 support (patch provided by Christian Weisgerber).
- OpenBSD AYIYA fixup (patch provided by Pim van Pelt).
- Fedora/RPM init script fixup (bash case's don't fall through)
reported and patch supplied by Matt Domsch.
- NetBSD AYIYA support (noted by Tobias Riediger)
Works on NetBSD 4.x, for NetBSD 3.0 one needs to patch tun/tap to
support IPv6. Patch is available from the archives.
- local_ipv4_override option so one can use AICCU behind a NAT that
has been configured correctly to do proto-41 forwarding. This is
usually called a DMZ setup.

supports IPv6 (thanks to Geert Hendrickx).

- RPM spec update, add build-requirement.
- Check return values of system commands.
- Added a big warning about running AICCU from Daemontools and similar
programs which run AICCU in a loop, thus hammering the TIC server.

Future Updates / Wishlist / Known bugs and issues
See also the Changelog that is currently in CVS.
Following is a list of items where the SixXS team is currently busy with:
- New cross platform user interface
- Test-mode
- Time-set mode. Uses time from TIC and/or AYIYA to configure time properly
- Re-try TIC connect but the 'correct' way, thus abort when receiving full errors
- Additional support for OpenSSL next to GnuTLS (selectable at run and build time)
- Handle non-existing /dev/net/tun device when udev not active
- Sanatize incoming data before passing it to system() alike functions, this could be a possible attack vector (reported by Jan Behrens) [one just has to trust us for the time being ;) ]
- Refetching of configuration data to test if they are still valid.
- Reconfigure/fetch information on SIG-HUP.
- L2TP Support (Yes, even under Windows one can do IPv6 in PPP in L2TP :) [works but needs to be 'prettyfied' for release].
- TSP (Tunnel Setup Protocol) Support [experimental, no demand, thus very low priority].
- kFreeBSD (FreeBSD kernel, Debian userspace) compile fix by Axel Beckert
- Windows:
- Windows AYIYA implementation doesn't route correctly, requires mac-based fixup.
- Fixup service interface
- Installer (Binary, Tun/TAP + GnuTLS, Start Menu, Service-Option)
- Apple OSX / iOS:
