Bezoekers van de Meuktracker zijn ongetwijfeld bekend met de BitTorrent-client µTorrent. Dat er ook een client is voor Mac OS X, is vaak ook nog wel bekend, maar dat er ook een client is voor Linux, weten minder mensen. Afgelopen maandag is versie 3.0 build 22789 alpha, de derde uitgave in zijn bestaan verschenen. Het programma is getest met Ubuntu 9.10+, Debian 5+ en Fedora 12+, maar werkt waarschijnlijk ook op andere distributies. Kernel 2.6.13 of hoger is nodig en er is voorlopig alleen een 32bit-uitvoering. Meer informatie is op deze pagina te vinden. Hieronder staat de lijst met alle veranderingen tot nu toe.
Version 3.0 alpha (build 22789)Version 3.0 alpha (build 22708)
- Added fields to the About box in the web UI to present the external IP address and UDP/TCP ports assigned by a UPnP router to the server
- Added speculative fix for crash on POSIX platforms occurring when any configurable directories (e.g., active, completed, temporary, autoload, request) contain Unicode characters
- Fixed documentation by changing feed_id to feed-id in two places
Version 3.0 alpha (build 21886)
- Added daemon argument which directs the server to run in its own process group
- Added usage argument which directs the server to display the set of valid command-line arguments before exiting - server also prints error and usage messages before exiting if it detects at least one unrecognized command-line argument
- Added settings finish_cmd and state_cmd to provide a way to invoke asynchronous processes for torrent lifecycle events
- The add torrent dialog in the web UI now allows the user to choose which download directory to use for the torrent being added
- Correct JSON output is now generated for the list-dirs action request
- The name of the directory created by extracting the product archive now includes utorrent instead of bittorrent
- Removed ul_slots_per_torrent setting since it no longer has a function
- Added ut_webui_dir setting in the configuration file, which specifies the directory containing the webui.zip archive or the unarchived files to be served for the web UI
- Added pidfile argument which permits the specification of a file to be created by the utserver process which will contain the ID of the utserver process
- Added logmask setting in the configuration file which permits logging to be configured (and subsequently modified as part of handling a hangup signal), and removed support for LOGMASK environment variable
- The server rereads the configuration file upon receipt of a hangup signal or when creating or moving a file named rcf.utmr in the dir_request directory - see the cautions in the user manual about sending a hangup signal when attempting to change the value of dir_request
- Added settings admin_name and admin_password to allow administrators to define initial non-default credentials for authenticating to the server via the HTTP interface
- Fixed documentation by changing filter_id to filter-id in one place
- Ensure alternative listening port setting persists when changed via web UI
- Include changes list in docs directory of product archive
- Add mention of configfile and settingspath command-line arguments, rearrange content of Getting Started section of user manual
- Support configfile argument to specify configuration file location
- Disable BEP22 DNS support on POSIX platforms
- Include plain text version of the user manual in docs directory of product archive
- Include a EULA file in the docs directory of the archive
- Change default log file for logfile argument to utserver.log
- Fix documentation error saying to use forward slash (/) to precede a command-line argument keyword - should use a dash (-) on POSIX systems
