#
# This is a summary of changes of the D1 to D5 beta releases and shows
# what makes v4.0 different from 3.1.

# would YOU like to do that and receive the fame? Send an email to [email protected] !
#
* For the first time there is not only a UNIX/source release but additionally:
! Windows release (cygwin compile with dll's)
! PalmPilot release
! ARM processor release (for all your Zaurus, iPaq etc. running Linux)

! vnc module didnt work correctly, fixed
! mysql module supports newer versions now
! http module received a minor fix and has better virtual host support now
! http-proxy supports now an optional URL
! socks5 checks now for false positives and daemons without authentication
* The core code (hydra.c) was rewritten from scratch

balancing based on success, error and load rate
! intelligently detect maximum connect numbers for services (per server if
multiple targets are used)
! intelligent restore file writing
! Faster (up to 15%)
