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!).
Bryan Stansell
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 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 <[email protected]> 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 <[email protected]>
- 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" <[email protected]>
- strftime() idea for logfile names : Lars Kellogg-Stedman <[email protected]>
- 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 <[email protected]>
- website docs on serial port configs
- PCs (solaris x86, linux, *bsd, etc)
- lilo
- bios support
- suggestions by Trevor Fiatal <[email protected]>
- 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 <[email protected]>
- show attach/detach events to/of spy console clients : Greg A. Woods
- redefine client escape sequence in conserver.cf : Toby Gerhart
- 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 <[email protected]>
- strict file permission checks on conserver.passwd/conserver.cf : Erik
Sjolund <[email protected]>
- netgroup support? : Nikolaos Papavassiliou
<[email protected]> and Phil Dibowitz <[email protected]>
- send sequences to console on client connect? (to repaint screen,
for example) : John Cagle <[email protected]>
- uucp locks : Sebastian Zagrodzki <[email protected]>
- support more than 9 break sequences : Danish Mirza <[email protected]>
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
- quick-recheck of down consoles (for uds) and possibly only log state
changes (instead of each try) : DJ Gregor <[email protected]>
