92    Backups

94    - Workstation Backup allows the day of the week to be specified on which a
95      full backup occurs. This now works correctly for all days of the week.

98      OS.

103      device.

117      file.

119    - New optional samba property smb{WideLinks}, valid values are 'no' or 'yes'.
120      The current samba default is 'no'.
121      see http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/smb.conf.5.html#WIDELINKS
122      For example to enable samba Wide Links
123      # config setprop smb WideLinks yes
124    - Add windows network performance enhancements registry file that can help
125      Windows slow logons.
126      /server-resources/regedit/windows_samba_performance.reg

128      smb{ClientMaxProtocol}.
129      For example: # config setprop smb ServerMaxProtocol NT1
130    - Remove the samba_audit specific logrotate configuration which was causing an
131      email to be sent to the admin every night.
132    - Enable smb auditing per ibay, it is disabled by default.
133      Auditing is enabled via
134      # db accounts setprop ibayname Audit enabled

136    - Prevent emailing about the normal, weekly, checks of RAID arrays
137    - Update ServerName (Samba netbios name) when SystemName is updated
138    - Workaround a deficiency in the proftpd package where it does not handle long

140      large numbers of local networks were configured.
141    - Ensure Deny from all is on its own line in 15LimitLOGIN
142    
143    
144    LDAP (Optional in SME 8.1, and considered experimental)
145    ----
146    - Fix init-account script when LDAP auth is enabled.
147    - Fix group creation/modification when LDAP auth is enabled.
148    - The ldap.init script which starts just after the ldap service waits for
149      slapd to be to available. The logic to check if slapd is ready was
150      corrected.
151    - Add missing dependency on openldap-servers.
152    - The ldap log files can take significant space on servers with a lot of
153      users. This update will ensure old BDB log files are removed.
154    
155

165    - Avoid use of unitialised variables in smtp migrate fragments.
166    - Allow smtp_auth_proxy to use port 587 with STARTTLS.

168      blacklist to remove the troublesome methods.
169      For example to remove CRAM-MD5:
170      # db configuration setprop smtp-auth-proxy Blacklist CRAM-MD5
171      # sv t /service/smtp-auth-proxy
172      More than one method can be removed:

174      # sv t /service/smtp-auth-proxy
175    - imap-relocate-maildirs action was removed.It was no longer necessary and was
176      sometimes very slow.
177    - The soft memory limits for pop3 and pop3s were increased. Two new optional
178      database properties pop3{MemLimit} and pop3s{MemLimit}
179      For example to increase the memory limit
180      # config setprop pop3s MemLimit 50000000
181      # expand-template /var/service/pop3s/env/MEMLIMIT
182      # config setprop pop3 MemLimit 50000000
183      # expand-template /var/service/pop3/env/MEMLIMIT
184    - New optional qmail property qmail{ConcurrencyLocal} and default for
185      /var/qmail/control/concurrencylocal changed to 20.

188    - Modify domain style pseudonym pointing to user with dot in name.
189    - Accept messages with no body and no trailing \n after headers.

191      qpsmtpd.
192    - New optional spamassassin property spamassassin{MaxMessageSize} to allow for
193      spamassassin qpsmtpd's plugin size limit to be changed.
194      For example to also scan larger files
195      # config setprop spamassassin MaxMessageSize 1500000
196    - Make CipherSuite secure by default and tls ciphers defaults to disallow
197      SSLv2.

202    - Load TextCat plugin if ok_languages is enabled.
203    - Removed the databytes file from qpsmtpd config to honor the maximum message
204      size settings. See http://wiki.contribs.org/Email#Set_max_email_size
205    
206    Server manager
207    --------------
208    - Added donation text and graphic to login page and server-manager.
209    - Update footer copyright and renew full copyright text.
210    - Do not load mod_ssl for httpd-admin as it is not needed and creates log
211      noise.
212    - If the browser used to access the server-manager used lower case for
213      %escapes a blank screen would be shown. The server manager URL processing is
214      now case-insensitive for %escapes.

216    - Remove log noise (httpd/admin-error-log) when accessing the Create Starter

222    ---------------------
223    
224    - If IMAP is disabled in the server manager email panel, IMAP will now listen
225      to the loopback interface to allow webmail to function.

227    
228    
229    Web Server

231    - Modules necessary to implement .htaccess have now been loaded by default.
232    - Disable index listing of Apache icons folder.
233    - PHP's magic_quotes are deprecated so should no longer be used. The php.ini

235      is ON.
236    - Change wording of Software Update button.
237    
238    
239    Other fixes and updates
240    -----------------------
241    - Remove old System Name from the Hosts DB
242    - Fix warning in /var/log/messages by correctly initialising the relevant
243      variable. The warning related to the HW Address of a NIC.
244    - user-modify-unix script could take many minutes, it has now been optimised
245      to take only seconds
246    - The memory limit for pppoe was increased to 100Mb.
247    - On upgrading from SME Server 7 to SME Server 8 an email could be sent to the
248      admin everyday due to a modified /etc/updatedb.conf file. This update
249      ensures the correct /etc/updatedb.conf file.
250    - Updated SME root server template as D-root changed its IPv4 address on the
251      3rd of January 2013.
252    - The console would crash when no value is entered as static gateway in
253      servergateway(-private) mode. Improved error-checking in isValidIP()
254      prevents this.

256      running at any particular time.
257    - Add python-hashlib so we can read newer repodata signatures.
