[bug-inetutils] Inetutils 1.5

[Sergey Poznyakoff]

Hello,

On behalf of the GNU Inetutils developers, I'd like to announce the
release of GNU Inetutils version 1.5.

GNU Inetutils is a collection of common network programs. It includes, 
among others:

* An ftp client and server.
* A telnet client and server.
* An rsh client and server.
* An rlogin client and server.
* A tftp client and server.

The package is available from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/inetutils and from
the mirrors worldwide -- see http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html.
                         
The files and their MD5 sums are:

9e0f1ac040de3168ea785f44e42d585e  inetutils-1.5.tar.gz
a0643be557fccdf698901c0c4767819b  inetutils-1.5.tar.gz.sig

The list of noteworthy changes follows:

* Various bugs fixes and clean ups.

* inetd:

** New option --environment enables passing client/server data via
environment variables. 

** New option --resolve enables resolving IP addresses before passing
them via environment.

** Allows numeric port names as service names

** Inetd now creates a PID file.

* rcp now supports the -V option

* rshd/rexecd now switches to the users home directory after
  authentication.

* rlogin now supports XON/XOFF without needing -8.

* syslogd now can actually disable forwarding.

* talk allows the use of 8-bit ASCII.

* telnet is not subject to certain DNS spoofing techniques that could
  possibly foil Kerberos authentication.

Regards,
Sergey
