Niko,

Packages.debian.org says yourself and Jose Sogo are the maintainers, do
you know when you will have time to push the 2.3.4 into testing or
Volatile?

Thanks,

Stuart.

Users!

I have released smokeping 2.3.4. This is quite a hefty update
with many bug fixes and improvements for master/slave operation.

NOTE that you must upgrade both slaves and master to this version
     since the protocol was changed. The Master will detect slaves that
     have not been upgraded.

As usual you can get the latest version of smokeping from

  http://oss.oetiker.ch/smokeping/pub

The Smokeping OSS project is sponsored by:

* SWITCH - The Swiss Education & Research Network -
  http://www.switch.ch/
* Dynamic Network Services Inc - http://www.dyndns.org/

If you find smokeping useful, how about becoming a sponsor too?

Change List
-----------

* fix 'loss_background' documentation. Reported by David Tomic.
  --niko

* fix local variable override handling in connection with
  nomasterpoll
  --niko

* add protocol level master/slave protocol to control upgrades
  --tobi

* fix ordering of menu entries in web interface again --tobi

* bail out if the master/slave shared secret file is world-readable
  or writable --niko

* add some security notes to the master/slave documentation --niko

* Switch message hash generation to Digest::HMAC_MD5 (bundled)
  since this prevents the extension attack. Note that this change
  requires that you upgrade client and server in sync (you should
  do that anyway, but especially because of this)! -- tobi

* make sure when loading the sortercache that we only load info
  about graphs presently in the config. --tobi

* optionally pre-create the directory structure under 'dyndir' if
  'precreateperms' is set --niko

* store the slave updates in 'dyndir', defaulting to 'datadir'
  --niko

* change the slave update locking code so that reading works
  without write access to the temporary storage file --niko

* allow SSH probe to config rsa1 key -- Walery Kokarev

* make zooming work properly even for graphs generated with the
  navigator form time range fields. -- tobi
