Hello everyone,

Here it is at last, sslh-1.8. If you use the
select()-version of the server, it is important you upgrade
as there is an error in rc5 that can cause a segmentation
fault.

Also, be warned that the format of logs has changed to
include more information, as it was previously impossible to
reliably link an sslh log to a httpd or sshd log. So if you
have scripts processing sslh logs, you'll need to update
them.

Here are the news in this release:

	Changed log format to make it possible to link
	connections to subsequent logs from other services.

	Updated CentOS init.d script (Andre Krajnik).

	Fixed zombie issue with OpenBSD (The SA_NOCLDWAIT flag is not
	propagated to the child process, so we set up signals after
	the fork.) (François FRITZ)

	Added -o "OpenVPN" and OpenVPN probing and support.

	Added single-threaded, select(2)-based version.

	Added support for "Bold" SSH clients (clients that speak first)
	Thanks to Guillaume Ricaud for spotting a regression
	bug.

	Added -f "foreground" option.

	Added test suite. (only tests connexions. No test for libwrap,
	setsid, setuid and so on) and corresponding 'make
	test' target.

	Added README.MacOSX (thanks Aaron Madlon-Kay)

	Documented use with proxytunnel and corkscrew in
	README.

This can be downloaded on the usual page:

The roadmap for 1.9 includes ipv6 support and binding to
several addresses.

Enjoy,
Y.
