next time Tor is run.
o Detect netfilter properly on more recent linux kernels.

startup but there is no sign of it

TorK 0.29.2
Bug Fixes/Feature Fixes

reporting. Re-enabled hidden services under live-cd option.

TorK 0.29.1
Bug Fixes/Feature Fixes

2008-06-09 Robert Hogan <robert@roberthogan.net>
TorK 0.29
Bug Fixes/Feature Fixes
o Speed up pop-up windows
o Block plaintext ports (23,110,109) and warn user. User can elect
to allow the plaintext port for the rest of the session.
o Quick Bandwidth Configuration in System Tray a la KTorrent.
o Fix first-run wizard to allow proper configuration of system-managed
privoxy. This should save users the bother of manually configuring
a packaged, auto-starting privoxy installation to work with Tor.
o If TorK attempts to launch Tor but finds an instance already running,
only display the helpful pop-up message (asking if you want to just
connect to the already running instance) and not the subsequent,
confusing one (reporting the failure to bind to localhost:9050 as
some sort of a bug).
2008-04-09 Robert Hogan <robert@roberthogan.net>
TorK 0.28
Bug Fixes/Feature Fixes
o Always apply settings when OK or Apply clicked on configuration
dialog. Some of the more exotic settings were not getting applied
in some situations.
o The non-anonymous settings (e.g. cookies,javascript) were not getting
restored properly in some cases. This was due to an eccentricity in
TDEConfig.
o Be a little more aggressive with UPnP. Silently re-apply port
forwarding to the UPnP router when (i) Tor tells us it has failed
reachability tests, (ii) whenever the user presses play.
o Always enable torbutton when launching firefox.
o Always show a padlock on SSL connections in the stream display.
Minor Technical Stuff
o Add some missing includes for Debian packaging. (Thanks to Patrick
Matthai)
o Change the build script so that we have an SSL_LIBS parameter to use
with shallot when it's integrated.
o Some extra configure checks for OpenBSD. (Thanks to kuburosso).
2008-02-28 Robert Hogan <robert@roberthogan.net>
TorK 0.27
o UPnP Support Added. Almost all code taken from Joris Guisson's UPnP
implementation in KTorrent. UPnP will only forward ports 80 and 443
- this is because anything else misses the point. Users who want to
get fancy with port forwarding can configure their router themselves.
UPnP is on by default but can be disabled at server set-up time or
through the config.
o New compile-time configure option: --enable-gnutls. Default remains
OpenSSL. This resolves the licence clash between openSSL and third-party
GPL2 code in TorK. Thanks to Patrick Matthai for reporting.
o Removed use of libwhich.
o Usability Improvements. Reduced the initial complexity of the interface
by:
o Remove 'connect'/disconnect from toolbar
o Simple Mode:
- Add 'More Options' button that will reveal:
- 'Citizen' button
- 'Fail-Safe' button and 'Fail Safe' config
- 'Server' Button
- 'Usability' config section
- So in simple mode only 'Change ID' and 'un-censor' remain
o 'My Tor Server', 'My Server BW', and 'Configure Server'remain hidden
unless a server is actually running.
o 'My Hidden Services' remains hidden unless user elects to create a
hidden service from main listing.
o 'My Network View' remains hidden until user right-clicks on server
list to select servers.
o Thanks to anonym (maintainer of Incognito CD) for his help in defining
the above.
o Add Server Set-Up Wizard. Used first time you set up a server.
o Use an overlay rather than separate icons for the system tray
representation of server status.
o New Czech translation from Marek Stopka.
o Correct torksocks.conf manpage. Patch from Patrick Matthai.
o Make sure libtorksocks is linked against libdl. Thanks to Patrick Matthai
for reporting.
o Make the traffic monitor a little less of an eyesore.
2007-12-21 Robert Hogan <robert@roberthogan.net>
TorK 0.26
Minor Features
o Display a help bubble in the connections pane until the user has
discovered the clickability of the network interface.
o French translation from Daniel Berthereau <Daniel.Berthereau@laposte.net>.
o Fix geoip when --with-external-geoip used in configure. The option will now
ensure that an external geoip installation (including db) is used. TorK will
issue a warning if the external or local db cannot be found/read.
(Reported by Marek Stopka and Patrick Matthai.)
Bug Fixes/Feature Fixes
o Disabled 0.2.x-only TorK features when running a 0.1.x version of Tor.
o Internationalized all pop-up messages. They should now be translate-able.
o Random password is now the default authentication mechanism. Cookies
were causing too much trouble on certain installations. In the event
of the user getting locked-out by a random password (e.g. crash), TorK will offer
to reset Tor and try reconnecting.
o Update GPL Licence with correct address. (Reported by Patrick Matthai.)
o Fix interface bugs when selecting countries/servers for include/exclude.
o When displaying exit in connections pane, find the exit to display using server digest
rather than nickname.
o Modify license for OpenSSL. (Reported by Patrick Matthai.)
o Cleanup tsocks dir properly during make clean. (Reported by Patrick Matthai.)
o For 'My Bandwidth' allow TorK to always set values, even when greyed out. Selecting 'default'
resets values to default.
o For 'Performance' in 'My Tor Server' do the same
o For 'Normal Settings' in 'My Tor Client' do the same.
o For 'My Tor Server' do not store 'old' values if greyed out, but always apply values. This will
work because 'never run as server' is tied to ClientOnly - which prevents Tor from
functioning as a server.
o Patch to 'About' dialog from Jonathan Patrick Davies.
2007-12-07 Robert Hogan <robert@roberthogan.net>
TorK 0.24.1
Bug Fixes/Feature Fixes

2007-11-05 Robert Hogan <robert@roberthogan.net>
TorK 0.23 - The 'Oh For Crying Out Loud!' Release
Regression Fix
o The feature 'Cope with new extra-info handling for servers' in TorK 0.22 uses
a feature only available in the develoment version of Tor, rendering
TorK unusable if it is launching, rather than just connecting to, older
versions of Tor. Revert the change until the new feature makes the Tor stable release.
Thanks to Chris Giles for reporting.
Bug Fixes/Feature Fixes
o Fix nearly all compiler warnings in all components.
o Fix crash in libtorksocks if no configuration file present.
o Fix crash in libtorksocks if malformed configuration file passed (Thanks to
Brian Piatkus for reporting).

PACKAGING for more information if you are packaging TorK.
o Update to latest KDE admin build directory

2007-05-08 Robert Hogan <robert@roberthogan.net>
TorK 0.16
**Important Bug Fix**
o Konqueror settings to disable/enable plugins/java/javascript were not being applied
to all existing konqueror windows when anonymity was toggled.
Minor Features
o Make DNS Leak warnings less noisy. The rationale now is: If we see a DNS request
(noticing these is still not failsafe), and an active Tor connection within the next 6 seconds
then report a possible DNS leak. The previous approach was to report possible leaks
whenever a DNS request was noticed while KDE/Konqueror were enabled for Tor.
o Be more informative when KDE-wide anonymity is toggled.
o Add Pidgin to application list.
o Point to http://healthcheck.anonymityanywhere.com
Bug Fixes
o Change installation of GeoIP so that it is internal to TorK, rather than system wide.
This prevents crashes if the installation is not 'as expected'.
o Enforce 20KB as minimum bandwidth in configuration module.
