--------------------------- LANtronix --------------------------- Reverse TELnet (RTEL) --------------------------- Software Release Notes --------------------------- Version V4.3/1 October 27, 1999 Copyright 1999, Lantronix Release Summary =============== This document describes the problems that have been corrected and the functionality that has been added to the RTEL software. The man pages rtel.8 and rtel_build.8 document the compilation and installation steps. To view these man pages, issue the command nroff -man rtel.8 | more. New Features ============ The np_filter program has been added. This program acts as a simple filter and can be added into a redirected stream to send data to a Lantronix terminal/print server. See the np_filter man page for more information. Linux (on x86 machines) has been added as a supported platform. Resolved Problems ================= On Solaris machines, a problem with the incorrect file descriptor sizing would cause the print job to fail. Better error messages are returned if a named pipe is not available when using the RTELPD daemon process. By default jobs are not aborted if there is no progress for a long period of time. An "abortjob" option has been added to the config options for the rtel_backend program to abort jobs if desired by the user. Known Problems ============== This release has no known problems.
