that picks NTLM. Thanks to David Byron letting me test NTLM against his
servers, I could quickly repeat and fix the problem. It turned out to be:
When libcurl POSTs without knowing/using an authentication and it gets back a
list of types from which it picks NTLM, it needs to either continue sending
its data if it keeps the connection alive, or not send the data but close the
connection. Then do the first step in the NTLM auth. libcurl didn't send the
data nor close the connection but simply read the response-body and then sent
the first negotiation step. Which then failed miserably of course. The fixed
version forces a connection if there is more than 2000 bytes left to send.
gets closed just after the request has been sent failed and did not re-issue
a request on a fresh reconnect like the easy interface did. Now it does!
(define CURL_MULTIEASY, run test case 160)
curl_easy_perform() invokes. It was previously unlocked at disconnect, which
could mean that it remained locked between multiple transfers. The DNS cache
may not live as long as the connection cache does, as they are separate.
To deal with the lack of DNS (host address) data availability in re-used
connections, libcurl now keeps a copy of the IP adress as a string, to be able
to show it even on subsequent requests on the same connection.
present in RFC959... so now (lib)curl supports it as well. --ftp-account and
CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT set the account string. (The server may ask for an account
string after PASS have been sent away. The client responds with "ACCT [account
string]".) Added test case 228 and 229 to verify the functionality. Updated
the test FTP server to support ACCT somewhat.
contains %0a or %0d in the user, password or CWD parts. (A future fix would
include doing it for %00 as well - see KNOWN_BUGS for details.) Test case 225
and 226 were added to verify this
1) the proxy environment variables are still read and used to set HTTP proxy
2) you couldn't disable http proxy with CURLOPT_PROXY (since the option was
disabled)
assumed this used the DICT protocol. While guessing protocols will remain
fuzzy, I've now made sure that the host names must start with "[protocol]."
for them to be a valid guessable name. I also removed "https" as a prefix that
indicates HTTPS, since we hardly ever see any host names using that.
using a custom Host: header and curl fails to send a request on a re-used
persistent connection and thus creates a new connection and resends it. It
then sent two Host: headers. Cyrill's analysis was posted here:

problem with the version byte and the check for bad versions. Bruce has lots
of clues on this, and based on his suggestion I've now removed the check of
that byte since it seems to be able to contain 1 or 5.
#1098843. In short, a shared DNS cache was setup for a multi handle and when
the shared cache was deleted before the individual easy handles, the latter
cleanups caused read/writes to already freed memory.
reported on Solaris) problem where the size_t check fails due to the SSL libs

patch-tracker entry #1081707.
libcurl always and unconditionally overwrote a stack-based array with 3 zero
bytes. I edited the fix to make it less likely to occur again (and added
a comment explaining the reason to the buffer size).
