This is the long awaited 1.4.0 release of tinyproxy. Most of the
 | 
						|
tinyproxy source has been rewritten in one form or another. The old
 | 
						|
ADNS code has been removed, and the giant (ugly) state machine has
 | 
						|
been banished. These have been replaced by a threaded connection
 | 
						|
system. Not only did this make the source code cleaner, but it should
 | 
						|
improve performance on SMP machines.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Another change to tinyproxy is the new configuration file. Take a look
 | 
						|
at doc/tinyproxy.conf for an example of how to configure tinyproxy. If
 | 
						|
you have any experience configuring the Apache web server you will
 | 
						|
immediately see similarities between the tinyproxy and Apache
 | 
						|
configuration files. In other words, we liberally copied from the
 | 
						|
Apache style.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The access control list (ACL) feature of tinyproxy has been greatly
 | 
						|
expanded. tinyproxy now allows you to selectively allow or deny a much
 | 
						|
more specific set of IP addresses or subnets. In the same vein,
 | 
						|
tinyproxy can be configured to only bind to one address on a
 | 
						|
multi-homed machine.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If this version is not the best tinyproxy released, than it's pretty
 | 
						|
darn close. |
