[Pkg-silc-devel] SILC Server 1.1 Beta4

[Pekka Riikonen]

The new version of the SILC Server is now available!  The source package
of the software is available from the following sources:

              http://silcnet.org/
              ftp://ftp.silcnet.org/

Since we are in beta phase I am recommending that the server is always
compiled with debugging enabled and run so that debug log is created:

Compile as:

      ./configure --enable-debug
      make -j4

Run as:

      ulimit -c unlimited
      silcd -d*server* -f silcd.conf 2>log

If the server crashes, please take the backtrace and send it to silc-devel
mailing list, accompanied with the created debug log file.

      gdb ./silcd corefile
      bt

Known Issues
------------

- Known Issues in SILC Server

        - Two or more servers with same IP must not be linked to same network,
          even if server ports are different.  This is limitation in current
          implementation and may cause desync problems in the network.

        - Adding or removing listenning interfaces (secondary interfaces in
          silcd.conf) does not work in rehash (rehash is kill -HUP <serverPID>).
          Changing listenning interfaces requires reboot of the server.

        - Router to router connections may not work as expected.
