1 2013.57 -
2
3 - Improved initial connection time particularly with high latency connections.
4 The number of round trips has been reduced for both client and server.
5 CPU time hasn't been changed.
6
7 - Client will attempt to send an initial key exchange packet to save a round
8 trip. Dropbear implements an extension [email protected] to allow
9 the first packet guess to succeed in wider circumstances than the standard
10 behaviour. When communicating with other implementations the standard
11 behaviour is used.
12
13 - Client side: when public key or password authentication with
14 $DROPBEAR_PASSWORD is used, an initial authentication request will
15 be sent immediately rather than querying the list of available methods.
16 This behaviour is enabled by CLI_IMMEDIATE_AUTH option (on by default),
17 please let the Dropbear author know if it causes any interoperability
18 problems.
19
20 - Implement client escape characters ~. (terminate session) and
21 ~^Z (background session)
22
23 - Server will more reliably clean up utmp when connection is closed

25 - Don't crash if /dev/urandom isn't writable (RHEL5), thanks to Scott Case

28
29 - scp didn't work properly on systems using vfork(), thanks to Frank Van Uffelen

31 - Added IUTF8 terminal mode support. Not yet standardised though seems that it
32 will soon be

35 enviroment variable is set
