- will now display a reason when it fails to load a key
- uses existing error return from native keys
- import.c had a lot of error descriptions which weren't going anywhere;
since the strings are probably taking up space in the binary, we
may as well use them

of polishing to bring them to what I think should in principle be
release quality. Unlike the unfix.org patches themselves, this
checkin enables IPv6 by default; if you want to leave it out, you
have to build with COMPAT=-DNO_IPV6.
I have tested that this compiles on Visual C 7 (so the nightlies
_should_ acquire IPv6 support without missing a beat), but since I
don't have IPv6 set up myself I haven't actually tested that it
_works_. It still seems to make correct IPv4 connections, but that's
all I've been able to verify for myself. Further testing is needed.

Change Settings, the port forwarding setup function is run again,
and tags all existing port forwardings as `do not keep'. Then it
iterates through the config in the normal way; when it encounters a
port forwarding which is already in the tree, it tags it `keep'
rather than setting it up from scratch. Finally, it goes through the
tree and removes any that haven't been labelled `keep'. Hence,
editing the list of forwardings in Change Settings has the effect of
cancelling any forwardings you remove, and adding any new ones.
The SSH panel now appears in the reconfig box, and is empty apart
from a message explaining that it has to be there for subpanels of
it to exist. Better wording for this message would be welcome.

- new function platform_get_x_display() to find a sensible local display.
On Unix, the Gtk apps weren't taking account of --display when
determining where to send forwarded X traffic.
- explicitly document that leaving X display location blank in config tries
to do something sensible (and that it's now blank by default)
- don't override X11Display setting in plink, since that's more properly
done later

when talking to SOCKS 5 proxies. Configures itself transparently (if
the proxy offers CHAP it will use it, otherwise it falls back to
ordinary cleartext passwords).

on Linux, but the (very few) platform-specific bits are already
abstracted out of the main code, so it should port to other
platforms with a minimum of fuss.
[originally from svn r3762]
functions have sprouted `**errorstr' arguments, which if non-NULL can
return a textual error message. The interface additions are patchy and
ad-hoc since this seemed to suit the style of the existing interfaces.
I've since realised that most of this is masked by sanity-checking that
gets done before these functions are called, but it will at least report
MAC failures and the like (tested on Unix), which was the original point
of the exercise.
Note that not everyone who could be using this information is at the
moment.

with the crc32() function in the zlib interface. (Not that PuTTY
itself _uses_ zlib, but on Unix it's linked against libgtk which
uses libpng which uses zlib. And zlib has poor namespace management
so it defines this ridiculously intrusive function name. Arrrrgh.)

underlying integer type forming the Bignum. Using this, arranged
that gcc/x86 uses 32-bit chunks rather than the guaranteed ANSI-
portable 16-bit chunks. This has gained another 30% on key exchanges
by my measurements, but I'm not yet convinced that it's all
perfectly robust - it seems to work fine for SSH1 and SSH2/RSA but
I haven't ensured that every bignum routine is actually being
tested, so it may yet show up problems in DSA or key generation.

supports SOCKS 4, SOCKS 4A and SOCKS 5 (well, actually IPv6 in SOCKS
5 isn't supported, but it'll be no difficulty once I actually get
round to it). Thanks to Chas Honton for his `stone soup' patch: I
didn't end up actually using any of his code, but it galvanised me
into doing it properly myself :-)
[originally from svn r3055]
opaque to all platform-independent modules and only handled within
per-platform code. `Filename' is there because the Mac has a magic
way to store filenames (though currently this checkin doesn't
support it!); `FontSpec' is there so that all the auxiliary stuff
such as font height and charset and so on which is needed under
Windows but not Unix can be kept where it belongs, and so that I can
have a hope in hell of dealing with a font chooser in the forthcoming
cross-platform config box code, and best of all it gets the horrid
font height wart out of settings.c and into the Windows code where
it should be.
The Mac part of this checkin is a bunch of random guesses which will
probably not quite compile, but which look roughly right to me.
Sorry if I screwed it up, Ben :-)

areas of the code. Not all back-ends have been tested, but Telnet and SSH
behave reasonably.
Incidentally, almost all of this patch was written through Mac PuTTY,
admittedly over a Telnet connection.
[originally from svn r2615]
proxy-indirection network functions (name_lookup, new_connection,
new_listener) takes a `const Config *' as an argument, and extracts
enough information from it before returning to handle that
particular network operation in accordance with the proxy settings
it specifies. This involved {win,ux}net.c due to a `const'
repercussion.

the remote IP/port data provided by the server for forwarded
connections. Disabled by default, since it's incompatible with SSH2,
probably incompatible with some X clients, and tickles a bug in
at least one version of OpenSSH.

we're going to be a security program, we can at least make a token
effort to use the most secure local X auth available! And I'm still
half-tempted to see if I can support it for remote X servers too...
[originally from svn r2537]
Windows and Mac backends have acquired auth-finding functions which
do nothing; Unix backend has acquired one which actually works, so
Plink can now do X forwarding believably.
(This checkin stretches into some unlikely parts of the code because
there have been one or two knock-on effects involving `const'. Bah.)

from import.c to ssh.h, so that the implementation can see them. This
necessitates ssh.h's including <stdio.h>.
Also remove a spare prototype for base64_encode_atom() from import.c.

absent, and also (I think) all the frontend request functions (such
as request_resize) take a context pointer, so that multiple windows
can be handled sensibly. I wouldn't swear to this, but I _think_
that only leaves the Unicode stuff as the last stubborn holdout.

As a result I've now been able to turn the global variables `back'
and `backhandle' into module-level statics in the individual front
ends. Now _that's_ progress!
[originally from svn r2142]
each backend now stores all its internal variables in a big struct,
and each backend function gets a pointer to this struct passed to
it. This still isn't the end of the work - lots of subsidiary things
still use globals, notably all the cipher and compressor modules and
the X11 forwarding authentication stuff. But ssh.c itself has now
been transformed, and that was the really painful bit, so from here
on it all ought to be a sequence of much smaller and simpler pieces
of work.

`pageant mykey -c mycommand' almost infinitely more useful.

now a passphrase-keyed MAC covering _all_ important data in the
file, including the public blob and the key comment. Should
conclusively scupper any attacks based on nobbling the key file in
an attempt to sucker the machine that decrypts it. MACing the
comment field also protects against a key-substitution attack (if
someone's worked out a way past our DSA protections and can extract
the private key from a signature, swapping key files and
substituting comments might just enable them to get the signature
they need to do this. Paranoid, but might as well).

scp1 if it can't. Currently not very tested - I checked it in as
soon as it completed a successful recursive copy in both directions.
Also, one known bug: you can't specify a remote wildcard, because by
the nature of SFTP we'll need to implement the wildcard engine on
the client side. I do intend to do this (and use the same wildcard
engine in PSFTP as well) but I haven't got round to it yet.

by ceasing to listen on input channels if the corresponding output
channel isn't accepting data. Has had basic check-I-didn't-actually-
break-anything-too-badly testing, but hasn't been genuinely tested
in stress conditions (because concocting stress conditions is non-
trivial).

Only currently works on SSH1; SSH2 should be doable but it's late
and I have other things to do tonight. The Cool Guy award for this
one goes to Nicolas Barry, for doing most of the work and actually
understanding the code he was adding to.
