1 Technical notes on version 3.9.6
6 - Many improvements and enhancements to the manual.
7 - Generated PDF version of the manual that can be found
8 in <src>/doc/manual/apcupsd.pdf
9 - Tested Smart UPS, USB UPS, and Dumb UPS successfully.
10 - Implement a smtp program to permit email messages
11 from WinNT/Win2000 machines.
13 Changes submitted this submission:
14 - Corrected a bug in multimon reported by a user that
15 prevented display of Temperature in Farenheit.
16 - Added code for APC Smart-UPS 370Ci as provided
17 by a user (slightly modified).
18 - Modified the dumb driver to work correctly. This
19 code needs additional testing/checking as I did
20 not have the time for a full audit.
21 - Added a few changes to the new net driver that
22 interfaces to an NIS server. Much work remains to
23 be done to get it working properly. For the moment,
24 it is in Riccardo's hands.
25 - Added the build date to apcupsd.conf.in
26 - Created a simple program in the examples directory
27 called upsapm.c, which returns the string as expected
28 by the kernel for an APM device. The format of the string
29 is the same a found in /proc/apm. This program allows
30 the user to run the Battery applet and have it report
31 the status of his UPS.
32 - Wrote an smtp program that allows sending of email
33 messages. This program will work in a service context on
34 WinNT and Win2000 machines, as well as everywhere else.
35 - Updated the win32 examples to use the smtp program.
