WarpTunnel / News: Recent posts

Configuration Examples uploaded on web sites !!

Changes since v1.4.7.0
- Completely rewritten accept/reconnect server engine. Now tunnel core is definitively stable for intense multi-client use.
- New server is not compatible with older version clients .
- This led to drastically improve multi-client perfomance and stability.
- Fix some minor stability bug into client/server class.

- Add Compatibility for WarpTunnel version 1.4.7.0.
- Review all client code.

Changes since v1.4.0.0
- Add notify icon for WarpTunnel Server and Client GUIs.
- Add Encryption for data inside tunnel. New client version is not compatiple with older server ones.
- Add command line option "-s" to client & server Guis that when used automatically start servers & client when gui was loaded.
- Improved client time response.
- Some minor improvements.

- Add compatibility to warptunnel server version >= 1.4.0.0

Changes since v1.3.5.0
- Add source URI reconnection Control : for any new reconnection server control if reconneted IP address is the same of the one that open the tunneled connection.
- Add Automatic proxy configuration : use Internet Explorer proxy configuration.
- Some optimizations into copress/decompress class (better performance).

Changes since v1.3.2.5
- Fix a little bug into tunnel_in_connect and tunnel_out_connect routines.
- Clear code into TunnelReader and TunnelWriter routines.
- fix bug into tunnel_write_request routine.
- Modify code into tunnel_out_connect and tunnel_in_connect : now tunnel try again if connection fail ( Max 10 times ).
- Library Warptunnel.dll and its source passed from GPL to LGPL license. Other Parts of this project remaing under GPL license.

Changes since v1.1.1.5
- Fix a little bug into tunnel_in_connect and tunnel_out_connect routines.
- Clear code into TunnelReader and TunnelWriter routines.
- fix bug into tunnel_write_request routine.
- Modify code into tunnel_out_connect and tunnel_in_connect : now tunnel try again if connection fail ( Max 10 times ).

It's strange.. nobody notify me a bugs.. please help me

Changes since v1.3.2.0
- ClientTunnel Form bug fix : if you use compatible mode you can't use stealthmode.
- minor bugs fix.

Changes since v1.1.1.0
- minor bugs fix.

Changes since v1.3.1.0
- Rewrite code into "read_until" function that can freeze the server.
- Add some code to stabilize Tunnel-core (add timeouts on socket polling routines).
- Add sorting routines to statistics list.
- Now is possible to clear statistics of closed connections.
- Add "Stealth mode" option in WarpTunnelClient (avoid proxy packet filtering).
(to use this new feature you need to update the server too !!).

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from WarpTunnel !!!

Changes since v1.3.0.0
- Now WarpTunnelClient can emulate HTTP TUNNEL PROXY (CONNECT method),SOCKS4/4A and SOCKS5 to accept connections from applications :
so now the destination address can be fix (using old option settings into tunnel authentication group)
or variable using addreses passed by applications that connect to WarpTunnelClient listening port.
With this options you can run over HTTP Protocol programs that support HTTP TUNNEL PROXY,SOCKS4/4A and SOCKS5 like :
* EMULE
* FTP (only in passive mode).
- Add possibility to choise if WarpTunnelServer ot WarpTunnelClient should run in HeavyThread mode
(3 threads for client and server for every new connection) or in SoftThread mode
(1 thread for client and server for every new connection).... read more

- Rewrite some code into WarpTunnelService module. - Now if tunnel-authentication fails tunnel will close immediatly.
- Fix bug into Tunnel core-engine that could prevent some data to go throught proxy server.
- Fix bug into "tunnel_close" function : now closer wait for close response (so all data into buffer can be send).

Changes since v1.2.2.0 - Stable Maintenance Release
- Only one instance of WarpTunnelServer can be execute at a time.
- Tunnel general performance improved A LOT (Update Server and Client !!).
- Fix minor bugs.
- Tunnel core-engine stability improved.
- Now WarpTunnelServer's form is smaller.

Changes since v1.0.2.0 - Stable Maintenance Release
- Tunnel general performance improved A LOT.
- Fix minor bugs.
- Tunnel core-engine stability improved.

Changes since v1.0.1.0 - Stable
- Fix bug for "Proxy buffer size option" (now work).
- Eliminate a bottle-neck from "tunnel_write_or_padding" function (internal tunnel bandwidth and data delay improved).

Changes since v1.2.1.0 - Stable
- Fix bug for "Proxy buffer size option" (now work).
- Change Forms Tab indexes.
- Now you can choise if use connection statistics or not in the client.(in options tab)
- Eliminate a bottle-neck from "tunnel_write_or_padding" function (internal tunnel bandwidth and data delay improved).
- Eliminate problems with compression routines (Server executable update required !).
- Now Connection Statistics don't use Datasets (less memory usage).
- Now All tunnel code is inside one library "WarpTunnel.dll".

Fist release of client for Pocket PC 2005 or CE 5.0 (only for framework 2.0 !)

Changes since v1.2.0
- Add Client Authentication to Server
- Add capability to specify destination address:port at connection time (only with client authentication)
- Mantain compatibility with all old clients version.
- Make "ClientTunnel" and "ServerTunnel" serializable items.
- Some code rewriting (eliminated memory leaks).
- Some code optimization (tunnnel data delay improved).
- Now "getServerSocket" is only needed for "non-Authenticate" WarptunnelServers.
- Fix a bug when multiple connections arrive at the same time (TCP or UDP).
- General bug fixes.
- Compile a Client for Compact Framework v 2.0.

Changes since v1.1.0.7
- Change Digest Proxy Auth routine (now only one connection to obtain authentication's headers for the same proxy server).
- Add two new options on WarpTunnelClient form :
* Proxy buffer size : to try to set the size of buffer used by the server.
* Proxy buffer Timeout : to try to set the timeout used by the server to flush data from buffer.

Warptunnel Web Site is now on line !! on http://warptunnel.sourceforge.net

Changes since v1.1.0.5
- Change code inside "tunnel_read" function (internal tunnel bandwidth and data delay improved).
- Change code inside "CompressData" class (now routines use MemoryStreams).
- Fix Bug into compression statistics.
- Add "WarpTunnelSocketsFactory" class for developers use :
* "getServerSocket" create a binding (for UDP) or a listening (for TCP) socket based on a ServerTunnel class.
* "getClientSocket" create (and connect only for TCP) a socket to the listener port of a ClientTunnel class.
* "getClientSocket" return also the connection's remote EndPoint.
* These procedures return NULL if an error occurred inside them.
- Fix bug into ClientTunnel and ServerTunnel classes :
now the two classes can accept multi-client requests without loss of data.
- Changed the key of HashTable in "UDPInputBridge" from String to IPEndPoint for better performance and clear code.
- Fix some bugs in Client Form :
* When you close the form settings will be saved.
* If you select compatible mode you can't select compression or UDP/IP protocol.

Changes since v1.1.0.0
- Change "find_server_reconnect_port" search port routine : now the first free port after the server one is used.
- Now "find_server_reconnect_port" return a Socket bind on the new port;
- Fix bug in statistics : reconnections on input channel now increment number of connections.
- Add UDP Protocol Support !! (you need to update the server !!!)
