Security updates
o Fix security leaks that could result in a root shell compromise.
o Fix memory leaks in internal ls (this feature still needs more testing;
you should probably not use it on high-traffic production servers yet.)
o SITE MINFO was missed in 2.6.0 when disabling SITE NEWER.
Additions
o Merge in the virtual passwd/virtual shadow features of BeroFTPD.
Corrections
o Fix up the port-allow command in ftpaccess.
o Some fixes to the configure script.
o Fix documentation of data-limit.
Errata
o On Tru64 systems with C2 security enabled, real users cannot login.
This problem is being worked on.
