Revision history for Perl extension Net::Ident.

1.20  Fri Aug 27 00:59:24 CEST 1999
       - Public release
       - Added a few more apache layouts to the Makefile.PL to autodetect.

1.19  Mon Aug  2 22:50:21 CEST 1999
       - Added the often asked for, long promised lookupFromInaddr method.
       - No longer imports ident_lookup into package FileHandle by
         default, unless you explicitly ask for it (or unless you
         installed it that way during compile time for compatibility
         reasons).
       - Allow adding an ident_lookup method to the Apache::Connection
         class, as a convenience for mod_perl script writers.
       - Rewritten tests, included test for the Apache::Connection method
         by actually launching apache and performing ident lookups from
         within mod_perl.
       - Moved selection of FileHandle/IO::Handle class out of the
         Makefile.PL.  PAUSE/CPAN didn't really like modules that weren't
         present in the distribution, and it didn't allow you to upgrade
         your perl version underneath.

1.11  Wed Jan 15 01:49:15 MET 1997
	- Several bugfixes, and some slight interface changes:
    	  - constructor now called `new' instead of `initconnect',
            constructor now always succeeds, if something has gone
            wrong in the constructor, all methods return undef (like
            `getfh'), except for `geterror', which returns the error
            message.
	  - The recommended exported function is now `ident_lookup'
            instead of `lookup'
	  - Fixed a bug: now chooses O_NDELAY or O_NONBLOCK from
            %Config, instead of hardcoding O_NDELAY (argh)
	  - Adding a method to FileHandle would break in perl5.004, it
            should get added in IO::Handle. Added intelligence in
            Makefile.PL to detect that and choose the appropriate
            package.
	  - Miscellaneous pod fixes.
          - Test script now actually tests multiple different things.


1.10  Sat Jan 11 19:05:35 1997
	- original version; created by h2xs 1.16. First release
	  as a perl5 module, complete rewrite for perl5, based
	  on rfc931.pl

1.02  Fri Jan 20 18:20:32 1995
        - Quite a big bugfix: "connection
          refused" to the ident port would kill the perl process
          with a SIGPIPE if the connect didn't immediately
          signal it (ie. almost always on remote machines). Also
          recognises the perl5 package separator :: now on fully
          qualified descriptors. This is still perl4-compatible,
          a perl5- only version would require a rewrite to make
          it neater.  Fixed the constants normally found in .ph
          files (but you shouldn't use those anyway).

1.01  Some Novish evening 1994
        - Removed a spurious perl5 -w complaint. First public release.
	  Has been tested against perl 5.000 and perl 4.036.

1.00  Somewhere in 1994
        - First neat collection of dusty routines put in a package.
