New in this version 1.3: - added an option to refuse connections from hosts we can not resolve. - can bind a program to [user list] in users file. - do a gethostname() lookup on what gethostbyname() returned to try and make sure that someone did not put in a bogus IN-ADDR record. - user names in the user file are now case-insensitive (kelly@nine.org) - added nomatch to the config file so certain hosts can do fuzzy user name matching (kelly@nine.org) - using latest rfc931 code (wietse@wzv.win.tue.nl) #ident "@(#)fingerd:$Name: $:$Id: NEWS,v 1.9 2000/12/02 18:18:32 woods Exp $"
