502- Hardwire Linux slip support since it's too hard to detect.
503
504- Redo configuration of "network" libraries (-lsocket and -lnsl) to
505  deal with IRIX. Thanks to John Hawkinson (jhawk@mit.edu)

510- Added a configure option to disable gcc.
511
512- Added a "raw" packet printer.

539  autoconf version is broken (it only puts the library name in the
540  cache variable name). Thanks to John Hawkinson.
541
542- Add a local autoconf macro to check for types; the autoconf version
543  is broken (it uses grep instead of actually compiling a code fragment).
544
545- Modified to support the new BSD/OS 2.1 PPP and SLIP link layer header
546  formats.
547
548- Extend OSF ip header workaround to versions 1 and 2.

550- Fix some signed problems in the nfs printer. As reported by David
551  Sacerdote (davids@silence.secnet.com)
552
553- Detect group wheel and use it as the default since BSD/OS' install
554  can't hack numeric groups. Reported by David Sacerdote.
555
556- AIX needs special loader options. Thanks to Jonathan I. Kamens
557  (jik@cam.ov.com)

596
597- Use autoconf endian detection since BYTE_ORDER isn't defined on all systems.
598
599- Fix dvmrp printer truncation checks and add a dvmrp probe printer.
600  Thanks to Danny J. Mitzel (mitzel@ipsilon.com)
601
602- Rewrite ospf printer to improve truncation checks.
603
604- Don't parse tcp options past the EOL. As noted by David Sacerdote
605  (davids@secnet.com). Also, check tcp options to make sure they ar
606  actually in the tcp header (in addition to the normal truncation
607  checks). Fix the SACK code to print the N blocks (instead of the
608  first block N times).
609
610- Don't say really small UDP packets are truncated just because they
611  aren't big enough to be a RPC. As noted by David Sacerdote.
612
613v3.2.1 Sun Jul 14 03:02:26 PDT 1996

631
632- Use autoconf's idea of the top level directory in install targets.
633  Thanks to John Hawkinson.
634
635- Avoid infinite loop in tcp options printing code. Thanks to Jeffrey
636  Mogul (mogul@pa.dec.com)
637
638- Avoid using -lsocket in IRIX 5.2 and earlier since it breaks snoop.
639  Thanks to John Hawkinson.
640
641- Added some more packet truncation checks.
642
643- On systems that have it, use sigset() instead of signal() since

645
646- Fixed some more alignment problems on the alpha.
647
648- Add code to massage unprintable characters in the domain and ipx

662- Print IPX net numbers in hex a la Novell Netware. Thanks to Terry
663  Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu)
664
665- Fixed snmp extended tag field parsing bug. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin
666  (pascal.hennequin@hugo.int-evry.fr)

695  fixed an endian bug when printing mx record and added some new record
696  types.
697
698- Added RIP V2 support. Thanks to Jeffrey Honig (jch@bsdi.com)
699
700- Added T/TCP options printing. As suggested by Richard Stevens
701  (rstevens@noao.edu)
702
703- Use autoconf to detect architectures that can't handle misaligned
704  accesses.
705
706v3.1 Thu Jun 13 20:59:32 PDT 1996
707
708- Changed u_int32/int32 to u_int32_t/int32_t to be consistent with bsd
709  and bind (as suggested by Charles Hannum).
710
711- Port to GNU autoconf.
712
713- Add support for printing DVMRP and PIM traffic thanks to
714  Havard Eidnes (Havard.Eidnes@runit.sintef.no).
715

729  (cslater@imatek.com).
730
731- Check return status from malloc/calloc/etc.
732
733- Check return status from pcap_loop() so we can print an error and
734  exit with a bad status if there were problems.
735
736- Bail if ip option length is <= 0. Resulted from a bug report from
737  Darren Reed (darrenr@vitruvius.arbld.unimelb.edu.au).
738
739- Print out a little more information for sun rpc packets.
740
741- Add suport for Kerberos 4 thanks to John Hawkinson (jhawk@mit.edu).

770
771- Include time.h when SVR4 is defined to avoid problems under Solaris
772  2.3.
773
774- Fix etheraddr_string() in the ETHER_SERVICE to return the saved
775  strings, not the local buffer. Thanks to Stefan Petri
776  (petri@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de).
777
778- Detect when pcap raises the snaplen (e.g. with snit). Print a warning
779  that the selected value was not used. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin
780  (Pascal.Hennequin@hugo.int-evry.fr).
781
782- Add a truncated packet test to print-nfs.c. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin.
783
784- BYTEORDER -> BYTE_ORDER Thanks to Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
785
786v3.0.3 Sun Oct  1 18:35:00 GMT 1995
787
788- Although there never was a 3.0.3 release, the linux boys cleverly
789  "released" one in late 1995.
790
791v3.0.2 Thu Apr 20 21:28:16 PDT 1995
792
793- Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
794
795- Redo gmt2local() so that it works under BSDI (which seems to return
796  an empty timezone struct from gettimeofday()). Based on report from
797  Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
798
799- Change configure to recognize IP[0-9]* as "mips" SGI hardware. Based
800  on report from Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
801
802- Don't pass cc flags to gcc. Resulted from a bug report from Rainer
803  Orth (ro@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de).
804
805- Fixed printout of connection id for uncompressed tcp slip packets.
806  Resulted from a bug report from Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu).
807
808- Hack around deficiency in Ultrix's make.
809
810- Add ETHERTYPE_TRAIL define which is missing from irix5.
811
812v3.0.1 Wed Aug 31 22:42:26 PDT 1994
813
814- Fix problems with gcc2 vs. malloc() and read() prototypes under SunOS 4.
815
816v3.0 Mon Jun 20 19:23:27 PDT 1994
817
818- Added support for printing tcp option timestamps thanks to
819  Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
820
821- Reorganize protocol dumpers to take const pointers to packets so they
822  never change the contents (i.e., they used to do endian conversions
823  in place).  Previously, whenever more than one pass was taken over
824  the packet, the packet contents would be dumped incorrectly (i.e.,
825  the output form -x would be wrong on little endian machines because
826  the protocol dumpers would modify the data).  Thanks to Charles Hannum
827  (mycroft@gnu.ai.mit.edu) for reporting this problem.
828
829- Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul
830  (mogul@pa.dec.com).
831
832- Fix bug that caused length of packet to be incorrectly printed
833  (off by ether header size) for unknown ethernet types thanks
834  to Greg Miller (gmiller@kayak.mitre.org).
835
836- Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker
837  (brad@fcr.com).
838
839- Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to
840  Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com).
841
842- Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is
843  packaged separately).
844
845- Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler.
846
847- print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not
848  what we expect.
849
850- print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field. Add RFC1497 tags.
851  Many helpful suggestions from Gordon Ross (gwr@jericho.mc.com).
852
853- print-fddi.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul
854  (mogul@pa.dec.com).
855
856- print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to
857  Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown.
858
859- print-ip.c: Print the inner ip datagram of ip-in-ip encapsulated packets.
860  By default, only the inner packet is dumped, appended with the token
861  "(encap)".  Under -v, both the inner and output packets are dumped
862  (on the same line).  Note that the filter applies to the original packet,
863  not the encapsulated packet.  So if you run tcpdump on a net with an
864  IP Multicast tunnel, you cannot filter out the datagrams using the
865  conventional syntax.  (You can filter away all the ip-in-ip traffic
866  with "not ip proto 4".)
867
868- print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic
869  nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
870
871- print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
872
873- tcpdump.c: Add -T flag allows interpretation of "vat", "wb", "rpc"
874  (sunrpc) and rtp packets. Added "inbound" and "outbound" keywords
875  Add && and || operators
876
877v2.2.1 Tue Jun 6 17:57:22 PDT 1992
878
879- Fix bug with -c flag.
880
881v2.2 Fri May 22 17:19:41 PDT 1992
882
883- savefile.c: Remove hack that shouldn't have been exported. Add
884  truncate checks.
885
886- Added the 'icmp' keyword.  For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
887  matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets.
888
889- Many improvements to filter code optimizer.
890
891- Added 'multicast' keyword and extended the 'broadcast' keyword can now be
892  so that protocol qualifications are allowed. For example, "ip broadcast"
893  and "ether multicast" are valid filters.
894
895- Added support for monitoring the loopback interface (i.e. 'tcpdump -i lo').
896  Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) contributed the kernel
897  patches to netinet/if_loop.c.
898
899- Added support for the Ungermann-Bass Ethernet on IBM/PC-RTs running AOS.
900  Contact Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) for the diffs.
901
902- Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig.
903
904v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992
905
906- Internal release (never publically exported).
907
908v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT
909
910- Various byte ordering fixes.
911
912- Add truncation checks.
913
914- inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF.
915
916- nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host.
917
918- optimize.c: Rewritten.
919
920- pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous
921  for broadcast nets.
922
923- print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to
924  stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument.
925
926- print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer.
927
928- print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks.
929
930- print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header.
931
932- print-ip.c: Print frag id in decimal (so it's easier to match up
933  with non-frags). Add support for ospf, egp and igmp.
934
935- print-nfs.c: Lots of changes.
936
937- print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v.
938
939- print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso.
940
941- print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options.
942
943- tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits
944  (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs.
945
946- A packet dumper has been added (thanks to Jeff Mogul of DECWRL).
947  With this option, you can create an architecture independent binary
948  trace file in real time, without the overhead of the packet printer.
949  At a later time, the packets can be filtered (again) and printed.
950
951- BSD is supported.  You must have BPF in your kernel.
952  Since the filtering is now done in the kernel, fewer packets are
953  dropped.  In fact, with BPF and the packet dumper option, a measly
954  Sun 3/50 can keep up with a busy network.
955
956- Compressed SLIP packets can now be dumped, provided you use our
957  SLIP software and BPF.  These packets are dumped as any other IP
958  packet; the compressed headers are dumped with the '-e' option.
959
960- Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to
961  Jeff Mogul).
962
963- Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul).
964
965- IBM RT and Stanford Enetfilter support has been added by
966  Rayan Zachariassen <rayan@canet.ca>.  Tcpdump has been tested under
967  both the vanilla Enetfilter interface, and the extended interface
968  (#ifdef'd by IBMRTPC) present in the MERIT version of the Enetfilter.
969
970- TFTP packets are now printed (requests only).
971
972- BOOTP packets are now printed.
973
974- SNMP packets are now printed. (thanks to John LoVerso of Xylogics).
975
976- Sparc architectures, including the Sparcstation-1, are now
977  supported thanks to Steve McCanne and Craig Leres.
978
979- SunOS 4 is now supported thanks to Micky Liu of Columbia
980  University (micky@cunixc.cc.columbia.edu).
981
982- IP options are now printed.
983
984- RIP packets are now printed.
985
986- There's a -v flag that prints out more information than the
987  default (e.g., it will enable printing of IP ttl, tos and id)
988  and -q flag that prints out less (e.g., it will disable
989  interpretation of AppleTalk-in-UDP).
990
991- The grammar has undergone substantial changes (if you have an
992  earlier version of tcpdump, you should re-read the manual
993  entry).
994
995  The most useful change is the addition of an expression
996  syntax that lets you filter on arbitrary fields or values in the
997  packet.  E.g., "ip[0] > 0x45" would print only packets with IP
998  options, "tcp[13] & 3 != 0" would print only TCP SYN and FIN
999  packets.
1000
1001  The most painful change is that concatenation no longer means
1002  "and" -- e.g., you have to say "host foo and port bar" instead
1003  of "host foo port bar".  The up side to this down is that
1004  repeated qualifiers can be omitted, making most filter
1005  expressions shorter.  E.g., you can now say "ip host foo and
1006  (bar or baz)" to look at ip traffic between hosts foo and bar or
1007  between hosts foo and baz.  [The old way of saying this was "ip
1008  host foo and (ip host bar or ip host baz)".]
