This release adds support for sending files via SFTP. Duplicate checks
can now be done on a per-host basis. Hosts can be put in a group to
share one transfer rate limit value.


Changes: Detection of XPM support was improved. Fetching files via HTTP works now with more Web sites. More error cases in an URL are now reported to the user. Alda has been extended to handle remote log files as well.

The dialogs afd_ctrl, mon_ctrl, and dir_ctrl now use an external bitmap for faster display. Support for SMTP authentication has been added. For the SSH protocol, some of the openssh extensions are now directly supported.

Changes: Files that have been distributed or are to be distributed can now be viewed via show_olog and show_queue dialog. A new interface for acknowledging errors was added. All events are logged into a separate log file. The pattern matching function was enhanced so that it can also handle [] brackets. More syntax checks were added for options in DIR_CONFIG.


Changes: The directory option 'store remote list' can now also be used for local directories. All the log files monitored by afd_mon can now be centralized. Apache directory listing (HTTP) has been implemented. Support for extended active and passive FTP mode has been added.
