RSCC Version history

DateVersionTypeChanges
14-05-20096.3FixFixed a bug that prevented it from adding an extra privilege to a user account in win2000 when required.
NewNewer windows versions are now correctly named in the about screen.
31-10-20086.2NewLogfile analysing extended with OGR-NG support.
08-05-20066.1FixThe manual addition of computers works again. I think I may have hit a compiler bug here.
ChgThe computer names are added in lowercase after the network scan.
NewThe old network scan options can be selected if desired. Although they are much slower, they do allow to work on computers in another domain, and the new routines don't. If someone needs this functionality it can now be selected at the cost of speed.
05-05-20066.0ChgChanged the network behaviour using the NetServerEnum() API call. This makes the network scan much faster, and computers that are switched off for a while will not slow the program down much more. Since this does not work for local systems not in a domain a configuration option to revert to the old behaviour is included.
28-04-20065.8ChgChanged the source code with some #ifdef's to make it compile cleanly under CBuilder 3 and up. No functional changes or bugfixes.
24-04-20065.7NewExtra selection options to select if either clients and/or proxies can be stopped.
FixFixed a privilege error message with XP: XP doesn't require special privileges to run a process as another user as win2000 does.
24-05-20045.6FixFixed a bug in the proxy RC5 logfilename resolving.
20-05-20045.5ChgMade the user interface for running as another user more intuitive.
18-05-20045.4FixFixed a bug in the client logfilename resolving.
NewXP doesn't report as Win2000 5.1 anymore in the About screen. Running on XP is still not supported until I can test it properly.
NewUpdated logfile viewing with OGR Phase2 options.
01-10-20035.3FixApplied the previous fix to the scan network function too.
02-07-20035.2FixAdding computernames by hand now works when the new name partially overlaps with an existing one.
26-02-20035.1NewThe lines shown from the proxy logfile when RC5 lines are selected now depend on the selected contest.
17-12-20025.0NewServices can now be started and stopped on preset times. Separate times can be selected for weekdays and weekends (saturday and sunday). This might be handy in environments where the service should not run during office hours.
FixThe new function added 12-12-2002 worked only half for RC5-72.
13-12-20024.12FixThe new function added 12-12-2002 didn't work for RC5-72.
12-12-20024.11NewIt is now possible to select which RC5 challenge runs when viewing RC5 lines in the proxy logfile.
03-12-20024.10FixUsing UNC paths for the logfile in the inifile now works.
FixError message when Lsa functions fail corrected.
02-04-20014.9FixUpdating the statusinformation while running the network scan would remove the indicator. Fixed.
ChgBoth client and proxy are installed with Tcpip dependence..
NewMenuoptions that don't work for the proxy are disabled when the proxy is selected.
30-03-20014.8FixRunning a service under an account name with an empty password would fail.
15-03-20014.7FixWhen a program close was canceled when a logfile form was open the program would crash.
NewOpen forms with logfile or debug files are added to the "Window" menu.
28-02-20014.6FixWhen the selected keyfield from the perproxy was changed this change would not take effect until next program start.
NewThe menuitems to select which proxy logfile to view are back.
NewAdded menuitems to check and uncheck all computers.
26-02-20014.5FixFixed a memory leak when rscc closes.
NewThe destination path in the default setup can now be chosen with a decent directory selector.
25-02-20014.4NewRSCC maintains now 2 lists of computers, one with clients and one with proxies. This should make switching faster (no updates on computers that are not running one of the services).
NewPeter Conrad implemented a non-modal logfile view. You can now continue working while the logfile view is open. Thanks Peter!
NewIt is now possible to edit the default inifile from within rscc. Non-existing files will be created when they are saved.
25-01-20014.3NewIf the program has unsufficient rights to run in another user context, the program asks if it can try to add this right to the useraccount. You should have administrative rights for this action to succeed, and it requires a logoff/login to take effect.
18-01-20014.2ChgWhen scanning the network for NT computers, computers that are not part of the domain don't generate an errormessage anymore.
01-01-20014.1FixWhen shutting down a locally running proxy the unnecessary error messages are gone.
NewWhen no configuration data is found and the client and/or proxy is locally installed the local settings will be used as defaults.
28-12-20004.0NewProgram settings are mostly gone from the menu and the bottom panel and moved to a separate window.
NewRSCC can now write debug information in a logfile.
NewRSCC can now scan the network for NT machines only (this is a configuration option).
New2 buttons are gone and timing settings moved to a separate window - rscc now fits on a 800x600 desktop. (For those who like that).
NewRowselect on the listview can be switched on/off.
ChgWhen updating or scanning the network the info screen does not lay on top of all windows anymore.
NewA locally running proxy (version 319c or above) can be triggered to reload, connect or shutdown, even if not running as a service.
NewA remote service can be paused and continued after pause.
20-11-20003.10FixThe client logfile name is determined now with the code for the upcomming 464 client. If no client logfile is found with the matching name the old behaviour (find any matching filename) is invoked.
16-11-20003.9 FixThe name of client logfile is now also good when you use "w" instead of "weekly" as period, or "m", etc.
15-11-20003.8 FixThe name of the client logfiles is now determined with the same code that the client uses (thanks Cyrus), so if multiple logfiles exist always the correct one is loaded.
NewReload service configuration option added. The proxy as of version 319c does not yet support this, the client does.
NewMenu items to tell the client to flush, fetch or update its buffers. This will be supported by the upcomming 464 client.
NewMenu items to make the proxy connect with the keyservers. This is not yet supported by the proxy as of version 319c.
07-11-20003.7 ChgAll operations - install, remove, start, stop, configure, edit ini now only work if the computername is BOTH selected AND checkboxed.
FixFixed a memory leak in the reinstall procedure.
03-11-20003.6 FixWhen trying to start a service on a computer that does not have it installed the program doesn't wait for a timeout anymore.
FixStart service on boot/install is now correctly communicated from the defaults form to the configuraton data.
NewWhen reinstalling a service the bufferfiles are moved to the new location if this location differs from the previous location.
02-11-20003.5 FixTitle of the 4rth column in the listview is now visible again after program start, previously only after you switched from client to proxy or vice versa.
FixEntering an empty pasword on program start does not hide the warning messagebox after the password screen anymore.
ImpIf deleting an executable or inifile fails when removing or updating a service the warning message now tells on which computer it fails.
NewCancel option when closing the program through the title bar and the settings have changed.
25-10-20003.4 FixThe accountinfo form can now cope with passwords of 127 chars, formerly only with 63 chars (Win2000 can have them this long). Since I got no complains I guessed noone has used such long passwords. :-)
NewYou can hide the buttons and the program settings panel below via the menu.
21-10-20003.3 ImpLogin data in memory is now cleared before the program exits. Maybe a bit paranoid but better safe than sorry.
17-10-20003.2 FixEmpty login data is now also saved (allowing one to delete the information).
ChgThe helptext is updated.
16-10-20003.1 NewIf the settings have changed and you exit via the caption bar, the program asks if you want to save settings.
ChgThe simple cipher is gone and replaced by RC5 with a fixed key. Further the way the keys are saved has changed, preventing someone from getting the key length from the stored values. This requires anyone who has saved login information in the inifile to enter this data again.
FixThe Base64 routines could not handle binary data with \0's. Now they can.
10-10-20003.0 NewThe login data can now be saved RC5 encrypted with a user supplied password.
04-10-20002.7 FixThe filename of a rotating proxy logfile is now determined from the time in UTC and not the localtime.
15-09-20002.6 FixConfiguring a service on multiple computers in a row (select multiple computers and then press configure) now works correctly if you have permissions on some but not all computers. Versions 2.4 and 2.5 would give a read-only configure screen after encountering the first computer you had no write access to.
ImpThe program now compiles without any warnings.
14-09-20002.5 FixRestoring from the tray icon popup menu now works correctly (previously it didn't bring the rogram to the foreground).
ImpWhen viewing the logs, the cursor starts at the bottom of the form.
13-09-20002.4 NewViewing the service config on remote computers is now also possible without domain admin rights (changing them is not possible of course).
ChgSome source code cleanup, resulting in fewer and les cryptic error messages in case of insufficient access rights.
08-09-20002.3 FixThe way the thread for updating the status info was implemented could cause a program deadlock. The thread is now replaced by a timer.
NewRight-clicking on the system tray icon now gives a popup menu.
NewMenu item added to save the program settings.
ChgWhen no inifile is found, the default is now not to scan the network. Got too many complains about the slowness of this scan. :-(
07-09-20002.2 FixLogfile name is now also correct for non-daily rotating proxy logfiles.
06-09-20002.1 NewView logfile option added. For proxy logfiles the number of sent blocks/stubs is also calculated when selected.
NewThe program can now be minimized to the system tray.
ChgThe checkboxes for the behaviour on program start are moved to the main menu. They are now checkable menu options.
24-08-20002.0 FixA non existing directory structure of several levels deep is now correctly created when a service is installed.
18-08-20001.9 FixSolved a timeout error when installing a service without starting it after installation (the program would wait for the service to start anyway).
ImpIf the destination dir does not exist it will be created on service install.
NewDistinguished between updating and reinstalling a service.
NewUpdating the status of all checked computers at program start is now optional.
ChgThe buttons are now positioned on top.
17-07-20001.8 FixSolved the annoying "File not found" bug when removing/updating multiple computers.
ImpIntegrated the helpfile within the executable, no separate helpfile needed anymore.
ImpClicking on the listview columns sorts the view alphabetically on that column.
14-07-20001.7 FixSolved a bug that sometimes prevented the client version number from being displayed.
ImpAdded a client update option.
11-07-20001.6 -First public release.
Many1.0 - 1.5- Internal test releases. These were never put online and I didn't keep logs of what changed.
