NAT32 Version 2.2 is a Windows application that provides Internet
Connection Sharing and Routing, DHCP and DNS Services, Wireless
Access Point services and Connection Aggregation for multiple LAN,
WAN, WLAN, WWAN, VPN and Bluetooth connections.

NAT32 Version 2.2 is the only software of its kind that supports
selective, forced routing of Internet traffic via an OpenVPN
connection.

NAT32 Version 2.2 is the only software of its kind to support two
Internet gateways per network, with automatic fail-over should the
main Internet gateway fail.

NAT32 Version 2.2 runs on ALL current 32-bit and 64-bit platforms,
including most Server and Embedded editions and is ideally suited
for use as a supplementary router in home and office networks.

The software also runs on Windows in Safe Mode with Networking.
In fact, for Windows 10 and 11, that is the recommended mode if
Microsoft telemetry and forced reboots are to be avoided.

A flexible DNS Analyser protects all machines against undesirable
Internet content such as malware, tracking and advertising.

NAT32 Version 2.2 consists of approx. 300,000 lines of C code as
counted with LocMetrics.exe. The nat32.exe file is approximately
1.8 MB in size. It has no runtime dependencies other than the
standard C runtime available on all Windows platforms.

      in NETSTART, even if a second primary gateway has not (yet)
      been specified.

    - Command 'nethood' updated.

    - Command 'arping' updated.

    - User admin feature updated.

    - Inetin() and pnetin() modified. Sleep times are recorded and
      can be viewed with commands 'nic' and 'ifn'.

    - Help pages updated.

    - Paypal button added for purchasing email support.


September, 2020 ***** [CURRENT BUILD   22319] *****
                ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.25] *****
                ***** [New  HELP2.ZIP   file] *****

    ***** [Always restart NAT32 after updating help files] *****

    The following changes have been made:

    - netin functions now call FlushAdapterPacketQueue when buffer
      count is less than 10. Function sleep is no longer called.

    - New command bpdump added.

    - Major changes to message passing mechanism: seperate functions
      for sending an int and a buffer. The buffer is always freed.

    - ARPD modified.

    - BUGFIX: Pipe device modified so that when the reader exits,
      the writer terminates correctly.

    - BUGFIX: Several upnpc bugs fixed.

    - PiHole support added. See set command and nat32s.js.

    - Autoconfig 'l' parameter doesn't add a default route
      but 'L' does.

    - Autoconfig should typicall be 'aDLw' or similar.

    - Autoconfig 'aD' will present the Configuration dialog box that
      can be dismissed with ESC (or Exit) if NAT32 has already been
      configured.

    - NXDOMAIN response behaviour can now be turned on via the
      setns e5 or e7 (bit 2) command.

    - Note that NXDOMAIN responses are not handled correctly by
      some web browsers. The PiHole also has an option for this
      but the 0.0.0.0 response for blocked names seems best

    - Major changes to ifn_ini: Windows values now no longer have
      priority.

    - Major changes to x_openvpn so that connections can used either
      gateway 1 or gateway 2.

    - BUGFIX: Either gateway can now be 0.0.0.0.

    - Variables router 1 and router 2 are now independent of Windows
      gateway settings.

    - BUGFIX: DNS resolution for machines on private networks now
      works again.

    - New command: sha256x $phpwd 2 will generate the needed auth
      string in $phauth so that PiHole commands can be executed.

    - Note that there is currently no known way of changing the
      upstream DNS server that PiHole uses. We may want to do this
      when an alternate Internet gateway is being used. Presently,
      we depend on the PiHole detecting a dead DNS address and
      switching to the alternate DNS address automatically.

    - The sockio library now times out TCP connection requests if
      they do not succeed within 2 seconds.

    - BUGFIX: Filter mechanism structure packing added.

    ***** [Always restart NAT32 after updating help files] *****

    The following changes have been made:

    - Interface configuration dialog box modified to allow specific
      gateway and DNS server addresses to be added.

    - Interface configuration dialog box now adjusts routes if
      gateways are modified.

    - DNS counters have been modified to increase accuracy.

    - DNS reverse lookups (ip2name) now function correctly.

    - UPNP client commands now accept IP or name argument.

    - Experimental: INETIN, RTADD and NETWRITEA modified to forward
      169.254.x.x traffic.

    - NAT32 no longer hangs on exit when a network adapter is
      disabled or removed.

    - Support for 169.254.0.0 reachability added.

    - Route add command added to startup.txt:

        route add 169.254.0.0 255.255.0.0 0.0.0.0

    - ICMP reachability issues corrected.

    - Several web pages modified.

           ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.24] *****
           ***** [New  HELP2.ZIP   file] *****

    ***** [Always restart NAT32 after updating help files] *****

    The following changes have been made:

    - VLAN support added (experimental). Traffic with a VLAN ID is
      handled by NAT32. All non-matching traffic is forwarded
      transparently. Command 'vlan [ifn [ID]]' is used to specify
      the ID. The default VLAN ID is 0. A future version of the
      WinPkFilter driver will support filtering by VLAN ID.

    - Multicast DNS (mDNS and LLMNR) support improved.

    - Nethood support improved.

    - Bug in HTTPW fixed.

    - Bug in DHCPD fixed. Networks with masks shorter than
      255.255.255.0 are now handled correctly.

    - Netcheck now validates connection IP and Mask for all
      interfaces. The value (IP & Mask) must be unique for all
      interfaces. Note that & denotes the bit-wise AND operation.

    - File diag.txt modified.

    - ICMP code modified to support ICMP 3 3 correctly.

    - Detection of QUIC traffic added.

    - An experimental QUIC daemon (udpquic) has been added.
      It responds to QUIC traffic that has been redirected to the
      honeypot.

    - The winquic.sys device driver is being examined on Windows 10
      platforms.

    - Port mapping now checks the nexthop address of a packet.
      This will disable the QUIC connection migration 'feature'.
      That feature undermines the use of VPN connections to increase
      anonymity.

    - OpenVPN now adds a filter to allow UDP Port 443 traffic to
      an OpenVPN server. The filter does not conflict with a filter
      added to block the QUIC UDP Port 443 traffic. The filter is
      deleted on disconnect.

    - Environment variable "nat32.local" added. It holds the actual
      string to be used for the .local name to be used in name
      resolution.

    - Command 'js dev [func [arg]]' enhanced. It allows scripts in the
      top window of the web page displayed in 'dev' to be executed.
      Script output is written to STDOUT. An argument to the script is
      now optional.

    - Command 'jsf' now requires a flag argument. See js.htm for usage.

    - BHO support removed.

    - Exec command supports a "browser" alias. It is similar to the
      "ie" alias but uses MSEdge instead of Internet Explorer.

    - Note that IE11 is still the embedded browser because a release
      version of the Edge browser object (WebView2) is still not
      available. NAT32 can be started with argument 'b' if no web
      browser is to be embedded.

    - Device driver files updated to Version 3.2.24.2. NDISAPI library
      rebuilt. Install and delete now works correctly.

    - Auto-config code modified. Option "aD" will use an existing
      configuration if the Welcome Dialog is cancelled and the driver
      is already running.

    - No password is required if NAT32 is running in Admin mode.

    - The gateway daemon (GWD) modified to work correctly if no alternate
      gateway is available.

    - Command "checki" modified to work correctly if no alternate
      gateway is available.

    - File diag.txt modified.

    - Name resolution modified (see name2ip.c).

    - Filtering code modified (see setf.c).

    - OpenVPN code modified (see x_openvpn,c).

    - Netcheck code modified (see x_netcheck.c).

    - Interface selection code modified (see x_setis.c).

    - Route timer code modified (see rttimer.c).

    - Calls to name2ip corrected in various shellx commands.

    - New change.txt file.

    - HTTPGET now supports chunked transfers

    - Bug in function uncompress() fixed

    - Gateway Monitor Daemon regularly checks status of gateways
      on the Primary Internet interface.

    - Routing-only mode updated to support multiple gateways.

    - DNS server settings detection made more robust.

    - Several new shell commands added. See the updated help

    - Trace functionality enhanced.

    - DNS queries for type ANY now supported.

    - Alternate gateway support enhanced.

    - DNS resolution mechanisms enhanced.

    - DNS Test feature enhanced.

    - File startup.txt now calls 'setuc' to set a default
      UPnP interface.

    - File startup.txt now calls 'mdnsx p on' so that LLMNR name
      requests are answered.

    - Command 'checkx ifn.gwn' now returns the external IP address
      of the specified gateway.

    - Fo clients with no source route, NSERVER is used to resolve
      names. This has the side-effect that when an OpenVPN connection
      is in place, name resolution will always be via the DNS server
      of the OpenVPN connection. To modify this behaviour, simply
      set NSERVER to the desired address via the 'setns ip' command.

    - IFNx.INI file format changed. Reconfigure NAT32 to generate
      new ifn.ini files.

    - NAT32 icon in system tray now changes colour if a DUN
      connection is up or down, even if the connection is not ours.

    - File crontab edited to not run the hosts commands in the
      background.

    - TCP port 3389 (RDP) filters modified in startup.txt.

    - Packets to private IP addresses are no longer forwarded to
      Internet gateways.

    - IPPROC modified to call the new rtgeti() function that always
      matches source addresses, even the 0.0.0.0 ones.

    - Various DHCPD helper functions modified so that no GPF occurs
      if the the DHCPD never ran.

    - Reinstated the non-shared private IP address feature.

    - Command setgw1 p forces ALL traffic to use gateway 1 (main).
      Command setgw2 p forces ALL traffic to use gateway 2 (aux).

    - Default search provider changed to StartPage.com.

    The following changes have been made:

    - OpenVPN support modified to allow a connection to a given
      server even if another machine already has such a connection.

    - Names defined in DHCPD.INI now stick.

    - Command ns now resolves DHCP-assigned names.

    - Commands arpadd and arpdel now resolve DHCP-assigned names.

    - Command setf enhanced. See setf.htm for details.

    - WARNING: The MS-LLTD protocol fails when NAT32 is running.
      The reason for this is unknown.

    - The 'active' thread now no longer spins.

    - NAT32 exit issues fixed.

    - CRON issues fixed.

    - New variables added. See set.htm for details.

    - INT64 now used for gateway counters.

    - Command gwstat now accepts an ifn.gwn argument and clearing
      of counters.

    - Route added for IP address 127.0.0.x mask 255.0.0.0

    - Command 'xevent pid' added. It can be used to force a thread
      to terminate by setting its exit event (if one exists).

    - Command "if" is now a builtin. This fixed exit and break
      issues.

    - Command "route alt" fixed for the case that no alternate
      gateway exists.

    - Command "dunupd" added. It causes connect.txt to be executed
      for DUN connections that are in place on startup.

    The following changes have been made:

    - Several routing modifications made to allow the following:

        - Any machine can request the use of an alternate Internet
          gateway. This includes the MSTCP of the NAT32 machine
          itself. See route.htm for details.

        - OpenVPN connections can now also be established over an
          alternate Internet gateway.

    - Several bugs fixed that caused some HTM pages to malfunction.
      BE SURE to download and unzip the new help2.zip file.

    - TCL parser modified to strip lines starting with # within
      braces (parse.c line #466).

    - OpenVPN setup simplified. See openvpn.htm for details.

    - Var no_sleep modified to not prevent monitors from being
      turned off.

    - Function sbcprintf modified to print in both Console and
      Web window modes.

    - TCP Keepalive code modified.

    - IPPROC source routing code modified.

    - The arpingn command now resolves IPs to names.

    - Special names like nat32.box now resolve even if no name
      server is reachable.

    - File nat32js modified to include an IP address that can
      be used instead of nat32.box in configurations that do
      not have a name server on any NAT32 interface.

    - File change.txt modified to add/delete the default route
      on the Primary interface.

    - Skype Tool support deprecated.

    - A few minor bugs fixed.

    The following changes have been made:

    - The WinPkFilter driver now supports NdisMobileIP adapters.

    - NAT32 can now share Mobile IP connections.
      See Mobile_IP.txt for more information.

    - A few minor bugs fixed.


June, 2019 ***** [CURRENT BUILD   22301] *****
           ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.18] *****
           ***** [New  HELP2.ZIP  file]  *****

    The following changes have been made:

    - BUGFIX: The NAT32 service failed to start if file nat32.pid
              existed. File nat32.pid (and others) are now always
              deleted on Windows shutdown and restart.

    - New command: route alt [ip | name] [delete]

      Adds a default source route for the specified IP or Name.
      Option 'delete' deletes such a route.
      The command fails if no alternate gateway is available on
      the network of the specified IP or Name.

      DNS requests from the specified machine are redirected to
      the adapter's second name server.

      For test purposes, a new command: setnhf ifn [ip | name]
      has been added. It will block all access to the specified
      IP or Name via the specified ifn.

    - BUGFIX: Command setf was printing an uninitialised field.
              Command setf now checks args[2] (add or delete).


May, 2019 ***** [CURRENT BUILD  22298]  *****
          ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.18] *****
          ***** [New  HELP2.ZIP  file]  *****

    The following changes have been made:

    - IMPORTANT: Reconfiguration is required because the ifnx.ini
      file format has changed.

    - NEW FEATURE: A backup (fallback) interface can now be
      specified. A fallback daemon can be run as: 'startd fallback".
      It monitors the Primary Internet connection and switches
      between it and the backup Internet connection to ensure
      continuous Internet connectivity.

    - NEW FEATURE: A backup (fallback) gateway can now be specified
      for an Internet-connected interface. A fallback daemon can be
      run as: 'startd fallback p.x", where 'p' is the Primary
      interface and 'x' stands for the gateway number (0, 1 or 2)
      that is to be used for fallback. The fallback daemon monitors
      the Primary Internet gateway and switches between it and the
      backup Internet gateway to ensure continuous connectivity.

      This feature has been tested with a Raspberry Pi running the
      ROOter version of OpenWRT. The ROOter supports just about
      every conceivable Mobile Internet device and gives Internet
      connectivity whenever the fallback daemon switches the
      primary gateway to the IP address of the Raspberry Pi.

    - Support for .local names added. This was needed because
      some web browsers have started warning users if an HTTP
      URL is used rather than HTTPS. For local traffic in trusted
      environments, this "feature" can be bypassed by using URLs
      like http://192.168.178.1/ or http://nat32.local/ or even
      just http://nat32/

    - Support for mDNS and LLMNR modified. See the relevant Help
      pages for details.

    - Pipe problem fixed.

    - Exec commands modified, particularly the execdk and shortcut
      variants.

    - NAT32 can now switch to a second desktop. This feature could
      be useful for hiding NAT32 windows from the regular user of
      the computer.
      Example: desk aux  # Switches to auxiliary desktop
               desk main # Switches to main desktop
      Note: On the aux desktop, Ctrl-Alt-E switches back to main.

    - NAT32 DHCPD modified:
            New range command
            New max command
            See dhcpd.htm for details.

    - New command: host add | del ip | wname
      This command allows a host (specified by its IP or its Windows
      name) to be added to or deleted from the Windows Host Table.

    The following changes have been made:

    - MAJOR: inetin and pnetin sleep for 10 msec when the buffer
      pool nears exhaustion. This modification improves throughput
      dramatically for heavy loads e.g. during speed testing.

    - BUGFIX: arpin_q problem.

    - Several ARP debugging commands and GPQ commands modified.

    - Several pipe modifications made.

    - Shell TCL command now handles unbalanced quotes correctly.

    - BUGFIX: pipes now close correctly.

    - BUGFIX: nested TCL exec commands now work correctly.

    - New shell command: m3u url
      Downloads an m3u URL and extracts the first link.
      See the web radio applet (swrx.htm) for an example.

    - A "Run" menu item now executes the script file specified in
      the 'script' environment variable. Results are displayed in
      a popup window.

    - DHCPD commands that change parameter table values now also
      transfer those values to the interface table.

      NOTE that dhcpd.ini is executed after DHCPD initialisation
      has been done.

    -
    - File fr.js modified to use the IP address of fritz.repeater

    - BUGFIX: SoftAP app now handles rcmd commands correctly.

    - Startup.txt modified so that httpd confirmation is off per
      default.

    - Command 'route add' now modifies the gateway when a route is
      added that matches an existing route.

    - NDISAPI library updated for the 3.2.16.1 driver.

    - New command: pcheck.tcl password
      Checks the password against the HIBP database.

    - BUGFIX: Web interface is at 'localhost' when in Winsock Mode.

    - BUGFIX: A crash on exit no longer occurs.

    - BUGFIX: Redirection in the shell was sometimes failing
      because the original device was being closed before the new
      device was set. This caused nested Tcl exec commands to
      fail. An additional fix now closes all redirected devices
      except pipes.

    - Skype Tool rings FritzBox phone on incoming calls.

    - Find box in Web View now works correctly.

    - BUGFIX: Function isVPN() in data.js corrected.

    - BUGFIX: Command 'setmem' now works correctly.

    - Command 'route vpn IP|name' added. The specified host
      will then communicate via a VPN connection only. If the VPN
      connection goes down, such hosts will have local access only
      until the VPN connection is reestablished.

    - A DNS resolution problem solved by attaching .local to
      an SMB name.

    - Command 'dhcpd' now allows a host-specific gateway address
      and host-specific DNS server address to be specified.
      Previously, these values could only be specified per
      interface, not per host. Of cours, the specified host must
      renew its lease for the new settings to take effect.

    - The Interface Selection dialog box now works correctly.

    - Command 'dhcpd ifn ip ...' now allows just the host portion
      of an IP address to be specified (for convenience).

    - Port Mapping Table and Routing Table sizes now default to
      4096 (the maximum). Commands 'set pmsize' and 'set rtsize'
      can be used to limit the table sizes for better performance
      on 'slow' systems.

      or NAT32. In the latter case, specific uk mappings must be
      specified.

    - Bug in icunmap() fixed.

        Inetin modified to forward MSTCP traffic for local
        destinations without mapping.

        private networks and to "none" for clients on Internet
        connected networks, unless such clients are configured
        by the NAT32 DHCPD, in which case the check level as
        specified in the static entries list applies.

        Sample crontab entries are:

        @reboot softap on   # At reboot, turn on the SoftAP
        @resume softap on   # On resume, turn on the SoftAP

        NOTE: The "softap on" command requires privilege.
        It will work silently when NAT32 runs as a service, but
        it will otherwise prompt for permission if User Account
        Control is on (the default).


November, 2015  ***** [CURRENT BUILD  22234] *****
                ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.4] *****
                ***** [New HELP2.ZIP file]   *****

    29  MAJOR CHANGE: The dhcpd now checks for existing use of an
        about to be assigned IP address more rigorously. The ARP
        case is first checked and an ARP request is then broadcast.
        If the address resolves, it means it is in use and will not
        be assigned.

    28  MINOR CHANGES: honeyb lengths checked more rigorously.

        File change.txt now deletes the ARP entry.

        The pnetin thread now passes ARP Requests to the MSTCP
        and to NAT32's ARP Input thread.

    27  NEW COMMAND: Command 'startp' is identical to 'start'
        except that only STDIO devices are inherited from the
        parent. Use startp to start threads from script files.

    25  MINOR CHANGE: The wupnpd modified to not run on the
        RAS Server interface.

    24  BUGFIX: The DNS resolver was returning the incorrect IP
                address for names in the 'local' list.

    23  BUGFIX: wlan command was not displaying output.

        BUGFIX: unshared address mode for both Internet-connected
                and private networks now works correctly.
                Changes in ipget() and map_port().

        BUGFIX: Function printfs() modified.

    18  NEW FEATURE: The following admin commands have been added:

        adminlf [file]      # default is login.htm
        admingf [file]      # default is good.htm
        adminbf [file]      # default is bad.htm

        adminac ifn [access_code] # default is "Accepted"

        See the login1.htm file for an example.


    16  NEW FEATURE: Environment variable "userid" added. When 1,
        admin checks require unique User IDs. When 0, the same
        User ID can be used for multiple machines.

    13  NEW FEATURE: The dhcpd command now accepts a 5th argument
        that specifies the level of DNS checking to be applied to
        requests from the specified host.
        Allowed values are:
            "all"   (all checks done)
            "hosts" (only host checks done)
            "none"  (no checks done).

    12  DNSD privilege mechanism enhanced. The DNSD command now
        understands the checking levels: all, hosts, none.

        Command "set" now accepts "" or 0 for IP string vars.

        Shell now allows empty args (e.g. "").

        Function copy_routes() now uses the Windows metric when
        adding RIP-advertised routes.

     8  File nat32.js modified.

        File script/app: Lines can begin with a # (Comment)

        The dnsd command now allows a security level to be set
        for a specified host IP address. Levels are as follows:

            0   Do ALL name checks (the default)
            1   Do hosts.ini checks only
            9   Do NO checks at all

        Global flag "dnsc" added. Values are as above and apply
        to all clients that have no entry in the DNS Client table.


October, 2015  ***** [CURRENT BUILD  22232] *****
               ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.4] *****

    22  Minor Changes:

        Function p32open() was calling getnam() instead of
        getpname() in error messages.

        Minor error in unixutil() line #90 corrected.

        Minor error in in x_log.c line #19 corrected.

        The DHCPD now honors a specified offset only for DISCOVERs
        with no code 50 IP address.

        Default DHCPD lease duration is again 7 days.

        BUGFIX: The buffer size used by the browser devices has
        been increased to 8*64K (webinit.c line #35).
        The same increase was done in edit.c line #521.

    13  Minor Updates:

        Minor changes in wupnpd.

        NEW FEATURE: Command htest now accepts an argument
        specifying how many times a name should be looked up.
        This gives more accurate time estimates for the lookup.

        NEW FEATURE: The arping command now resolves Vendor IDs
        for MAC addresses, if a file mac.txt or mac.ini exists.
        The supplied mac.ini file is based on the manuf file
        distributed with Wireshark.

        --------------------------------------------
        ***** IMPORTANT NOTE for OpenVPN users *****
        --------------------------------------------

        Some versions of the TAP-WIN32 driver on some platforms
        were causing NAT32 exit to fail if the adapter was set to
        report its Media Status as Always Connected rather than as
        Application Controlled.

     6  Minor Updates:

        A black-list entry containing a ^ character must be in
        quotes.

        Udptime server fixed.

        Udpdtime server added (UDP Daytime Service).

        Default DHCPD lease duration is now 1 day (86400 sec).

        Monitor dialog box modified to allow clearing of the
        entire list.

        Various web pages updated.


September, 2015  ***** [CURRENT BUILD  22232] *****
                 ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.3] *****

    29  NEW FEATURE: The DNSRD now treats black-listed names that
        start with ^ differently. A strcmp() is done instead of a
        strstr() in this case.

        BUGFIX: The rasin thread now discards incoming packets if
        the number of buffers in the pool reaches 10.

    28  NEW FEATURE: The DNSRD now checks for long DNS labels and
        blocks names with a starting label longer than dnsl bytes.
        The dnsl variable is initially 40 bytes and has a maximum
        value of 63.

    26  BUGFIX: DHCPD modified to mark a declined entry as
        unavailable for 60 sec rather than just 10 sec. This fixed
        the duplicate address problem.

    24  BUGFIX: DHCPD modified to offer a different address each
        time a particular address is declined.

    20  MODIFIED: Connections can now be dialed via a web page.
        RasDial() is now used rather than RasDialDlg().

        MODIFIED: DHCPD now always broadcasts OFFERs and ACKs.
        This was needed because some clients do not set flags
        correctly.

        MODIFIED: Function log() now prints more diagnostic
        information if a log file can't be opened.

    18  BUGFIX: WINIO modified to fix resizing bugs.

    17  DHCPD modified as follows:
        Unicast behaviour changed, NACK behaviour changed.
        Function request() no longer calls arp_send() to check
        the requested IP.

    12  NEW FEATURE: The DNS lookup functions now check the WHOST
        table. The DHCPD now adds an entry to that table after
        sending an ACK to a REQUEST. This fix is particularly
        useful for LINUX-based devices.

     9  Various string functions modified to ensure VS2015
        compatibility. Note the sprintfx.cpp and vsprntfd.c
        modifications.

     8  BUGFIX: The DHCPD now adds an ARP entry before sending an
                OFFER, ACK or NACK. This allows devices that do
                not set the BROADCAST flag in DISCOVER and REQUEST
                packets to work correctly.

        BUGFIX: Function inetin() now passes mapped packets to
                NAT32 regardless of source, if a mapping exists.

     7  BUGFIX: Portmap send_ack() error fixed.
                An ARP request for IP destination instead of
                IP nexthop was being sent.

        BUGFIX: Honeypot serve_real_content() fixed.
                The request length is now checked.

        BUGFIX: See all the 5.9.2015 notes relating to udpsend(),
                ipsend, and their callers.

     4  NEW FEATURE: The httpd_proxy environment variable now
        allows (1) or diallows (0) HTTPD proxy behaviour.

     3  BUGFIX: DHCPD was sometimes not responding to request.

     2  A new WinPkFilter Driver Version 3.2.4 is now available.


August, 2015  ***** [CURRENT BUILD  22232] *****
              ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.3] *****

    31  MODIFICATION: The dhcp command has been renamed to dhcpd.

    30  Error in nav.css fixed.

    28  BUGFIX: TCL: Several minor file I/O errors corrected.

    26  NEW FEATURE: arping command added.

            Usage: arping ifn [IP | MAC]

        The command is used to obtain a list of all machines on a
        network (arping ifn) or to "ping" a machine by IP address
        or MAC address.

        CRON now re-syncs when the machine resumes from sleep.


    23  NEW FEATURE: mechanism for overriding DHCP offers from
        external DHCP servers modified.

    21  NEW FEATURE: Command 'dhcpc ifn test' gathers responses for
        2 seconds. It thus detects all DHCP servers that have sent
        an offer during that interval.

        File 'crontab' detects external DHCP servers every minute.

        NOTE: If the DHCPD is set to static mode on an interface,
        then stations not in the reserved list will never be
        initialised if no external DHCP server is active.

    19  NEW FEATURE: mechanism for overriding DHCP offers from
        external servers improved.

    16  BUGFIX: several minor DHCPD bugs fixed.

    15  NEW FEATURE: Honeypot now honors FILE and CMD requests.

    14  BUGFIX: Port 137 lookups for "wpad" now honored.

    13  BUGFIX: UDP echo command was sending to broadcast address
        if name resolution failed.

        NEW FEATURE: RDP and SMB traffic is now mapped directly to
        the MSTCP by the driver. This greatly increases performance
        for local traffic.

    12  NEW FEATURE: The winset command can now be used to start
        the Windows Firewall Control Panel applet.

    11  CHANGE: The ICF code now no longer defaults to ON.

    10  NEW FEATURE: The honeypots, DHCP server and HTTP servers
        are now started via startup.txt only.

     9  NEW FEATURE: The DHCPD now supports configuration of MSTCP
        interfaces. A new dialog box asks the user for an IP address
        and Mask to be used on the interface. In order to support
        DHCP renew requests, the DHCPD reports the fixed IP address
        x.x.x.232 so that such requests actually make it down to
        the NDIS layer. That IP address is pingable from other
        machines.

     8  BUGFIX: Error in ReadPostData() corrected. This error was
                causing NAT32 to exit if WUPNPD received a command.

     7  WSUPNPD exception handling added.

     6  BUGFIX: WUPNPD buffer size increased.

     4  BUGFIX: HTTPW now uses a larger reply buffer for DNS
                lookups.

     3  BUGFIX: HTTPD POST Request now works correctly.


July, 2015  ***** [CURRENT BUILD  22230] *****
            ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.3] *****

    31  BUGFIX: various buffer issues in the HTTPD fixed.
        BUGFIX: additional sanity checks added to the TCP code.
        BUGFIX: honeypot_ssl was not closing connections because
                read() calls were blocking.
        BUGFIX: Function tcpwrite() was sometimes writing too much
                data.

    25  BUGFIX: termination when additional shells are running.
        BUGFIX: tcpsend() error when no data needs to be sent.
        BUGFIX: buffer length error in mwrite() and monitord().

    22  Several bugfixes and improvements, including:

            Winsock WUPNPD improved (see upnpd.htm).
            New command setu added  (see upnpd.htm).
            WUPNPD now started on Secondary interface in startup.txt
            NAT32.EXE flags modified. Flag "h" now indicates
                "No HOSTS checking"
            Flag "p" now indicates "give network I/O priority".
            FritzBox and FritzRepeater script files modified.
            Default stack size increased.


    15  BUGFIX: Fixed potential GPF in pmain.c

        Various other minor issues fixed.

    12  BUGFIX: TCP keepalive now works correctly.

     6  Minor changes in how winio.c handles change between web
        mode and standard mode.

     4  Many changes made, particularly in memory allocation in
        several functions.

        Most (but not all) printf variants now use xmalloc().

        The minimum stack size is now 16K rather than 4K.

        The WinPkFilter 3.2.3 is now installed per default.

        BUGFIX: The NSERVER string is now no longer sometimes
        falsely set.

June, 2015  ***** [CURRENT BUILD  22228] *****
            ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.x] *****

    15  This is the last build that will run on Windows XP.

        BUGFIX: Function wlogin() modified to close startup.txt
        once it's execution has completed.

        Several commands modified to interpret "all" as all
        interfaces.

     9  BUGFIX: File change.txt now sets interface selection
        algorithm to 'main'.

        NEW COMMAND: netcheck displays important network settings.

     8  IMPROVEMENT: DNS resolver now checks Windows notion of a
        name server address before resorting to OpenDNS.

        BUGFIX: Shutdown command now clears no_sleep before
        calling ExitWindowsEx().

        BUGFIX: Exit flag is now set when a network input thread
        is forcefully terminated (e.g. via a netstop command).

     6  BUGFIX: IPPROC minor DNS modification.

     5  BUGFIX: The NETOUT thread was sometimes terminating
        prematurely. This happened whenever its semaphore was
        signalled and the ouput queue had been emptied in the
        interim. Changes in netout(), netwriteq() and slowtimer().

     4  Major changes to how DNS is used and detected. Nsdetect
        is no longer used, as it allows any private machine to
        change DNS Server settings within NAT32. The mechanism
        is still in place but no longer turned on in startup.txt.

     3  Several web page improvements and enhancements.

        Winio() now displays web pages by running x_web() and
        x_webf() in a thread rather than via a function call.


May, 2015  ***** [CURRENT BUILD  22228] *****
           ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.x] *****

    29  SoftAP.exe major change: Stop button now forces a stop.
        SoftAP.exe minor changes: debug output removed, status info
        now updates correctly.

    25  Admin.exe modified to start child processes without
        inherited handles. This means that such processes will no
        longer prevent NAT32 from terminating if they are still
        active at the time.

        Support for a second Windows ICS magic address added.

    24  NEW FEATURE: Throttling added. See setf.htm for details.

        BUGFIX: WiFi and Virtual WiFi adapters now recognised
        correctly on Windows 8 and higher.

    23  NEW COMMAND: arpoff ip | name [ifn]
        This command modifies the state of the specified ARP entry
        to "refuse". Thereafter, traffic to the address will have
        an invalid Ethernet destination address causing such
        traffic to be ignored by the receiver. This action can be
        reversed with an arpon command with the same syntax.
        This feature is useful for blocking traffic at the MAC
        level rather than at the IP level.

    22  Startup.txt modified as follows:

        1. The setis command is now: setis main
        2. The no_sleep variable is now set to 1
        3. Command: "setnsi p" was added to ensure that the main
           DNS server is used per default.

        When running as a service, a 20-sec startup delay has been
        removed.

        Various kprintf functions were modified so that they work
        correctly when NAT32 runs as a service. If kprintf2 is
        ever called, the caller blocks until Ok or Cancel is clicked
        on the xlog.htm page.

        CAUTION: kprintf2 is called from the kecho command. If that
        command is ever used, BE SURE to display the log buffer in
        a browser so that Ok or Cancel can be clicked.

        A new certificate for the WinPkFilter driver was added. The
        original certificate had expired.


    21  MINOR CHANGE: ARP cache size increased.

        NEW FEATURE: WiFi and Virtual WiFi detection added. New
        help pages explain the feature.

        RIP modified so that rip udates are never sent on interfaces
        that are configured, but not in use.

    19  MAJOR CHANGE: The code that handles adapter configuration
        changes and DHCPD changes has been extensively modified.
        The file 'change.txt' has also been modified and the old
        version should no longer be used.

        BUGFIX: All netin functions have been modified to correct
        a DHCP Renew problem.

        NEW FEATURE: The SoftAP.exe program has been enhanced.

    18  Kernel modification: The thread wrapper now checks for an
        unreleased Critical Section and releases it if necessary.

    17  BUGFIX: dstat  command modified (ARP CS issue)
        BUGFIX: eth2ip command modified (ifn arg added)

    15  MINOR CHANGE: Service configuration improved.

    14  MAJOR CHANGE: A problem was occurring on networks that are
        connected to the Internet via routers that have multiple
        private IP addresses. NAT32's inetin() thread was dropping
        incoming packets that had a MAC source address that did
        not match that of the configured gateway.

    13  NEW COMMAND: "dstat ea" converts the specified Ethernet
        Address to an IP address and name (if known).

        The Monitor window is now preserved across restarts. This
        means that decho the and mecho commands (which both call
        dprintf to display output in the monitor windos) can now
        be used at any time.

        Various help texts in dialog boxes updated.

    10  Unsolicited incomimg ICMP traffic is now passed to NAT32
        for processing rather than to the MSTCP. This means that
        pings will work even if the Windows Firewall is blocking
        ICMP traffic.

        BUGFIX: Problem with shell exit after a restart fixed.

     9  BUGFIX: wpad dns now works correctly.

        Softap.exe notification handling improved.

        Several htm pages updated.

     8  BUGFIX: Function sets() line #47.

     7  BUGFIX: Function inetin() now routes packets received from
        the MSTCP that are addressed to a different local network.
        Packets from the MSTCP for addresses on the same network
        are written directly.

        BUGFIX: The DHCPD reset command was setting the nserver to
        1.2.3.4 instead on nif[ifn].ni_ip.

     4  Command config no longer writes to logfile unless a debug
        argument is specified.

     3  The GPF Dialog box now works correctly for all options.
        A gpf command is available for testing the GPF handler.
        Full details are in file gpf.htm.

     2  NEW COMMAND: The wpad command can now be used to configure
        the wpad features and to turn wpad support on or off.
        Full details are in file wpad.htm.

     1  NEW FEATURE: The DNSRD now resolves names containing
        wpad.domain to NAT32's IP address. This causes a web
        client to send a GET request for file wpad.dat to NAT32,
        which then responds with the contents of file proxy.pac
        that is located in the NAT32v2 HTM directory. A sample
        proxy.pac file is included, but it should be edited as
        needed. The sample proxy.pac redirects all traffic to
        the NAT32 HTTPD at port 8080.


April, 2015  ***** [CURRENT BUILD  22225] *****
             ***** [CURRENT DRIVER 3.2.2] *****

    30  Various HTML pages updated.

        The "su" command now always executes admin.exe, even on
        systems without UAC enabled.


    26  Build 22225 created from the Build 22224 codebase.

        Minimum platform requirement is Windows 7 (Server 2008 R2).
