    1012 
    11 * The default dictionary for Server instances was shared between all instances, 
    12   possibly leading to unwanted data pollution. Each Server now gets its own 
    13   dict instance if none is passed in to the constructor.

     36 
     37* [bug 2] Fix handling of file descriptor parameters in the server 
     38  code and example. 
     39 
     40* [bug 4] Fix wrong variable name in exception raised when encountering

     47 
     48Version 0.8 
     49=========== 
     50 
     51* Fix time-handling in the client packet sending code: it would loop 
     52  forever since the now time was updated at the wrong moment. Fix from 
     53  Michael Mitchell <Michael.Mitchell@team.telstra.com> 
     54 
     55* Fix passing of dict parameter when creating reply packets 
     56           
     57         
     58Version 0.7 
     59=========== 
     60 
     61* add HandleAuthPacket and HandleAcctPacket hooks to Server class. 
     62  Request from Thomas Boettcher. 
     63 
     64* Pass on dict attribute when creating a reply packet. Requested by

     66 
     67* Allow specififying new attributes when using 
     68  Server.CreateReplyPacket. Requested by Thomas Boettcher. 
     69 
     70 
     71Version 0.6 
     72=========== 
     73 
     74* packet.VerifyReply() had a syntax error when not called with a raw packet. 
     75 
     76* Add bind() method to the Client class. 
     77 
     78* [SECURITY] Fix handling of timeouts in client module: when a bad 
     79  packet was received pyrad immediately started the next retry instead of 
     80  discarding it and waiting for a timeout. This could be exploited by 
     81  sending a number of bogus responses before a correct reply to make pyrad 
     82  not see the real response. 
     83 
     84* correctly set Acct-Delay-Time when resending accounting requests packets. 
     85 
     86* verify account request packages as well (from Farshad Khoshkhui). 
     87 
     88* protect against packets with bogus lengths (from Farshad Khoshkhui). 
     89 
     90 
     91Version 0.5

     93 
     94* Fix typo in server class which broke handling of accounting packets. 
     95 
     96* Create seperate AuthPacket and AcctPacket classes; this resulted in 
     97  a fair number of API changes. 
     98 
     99* Packets now know how to create and verify replies. 
     100 
     101* Client now directs authentication and accounting packets to the 
     102  correct port on the server. 
     103

     116* Fix last case of bogus exception usage. 
     117 
     118* Move RADIUS code constants to packet module.

     139* Use proper exceptions. 
     140 
     141* Encode and decode vendor attributes. 
     142 
     143* Dictionary can parse vendor dictionaries. 
     144 
     145* Dictionary can handle attribute values. 
     146 
     147* Enhance most constructors; they now take extra optional parameters 
     148  with initialisation info. 
     149 
     150* No longer use obsolete python interfaces like whrandom.
