From anakin@pobox.com Mon, 14 Jan 2002 21:01:00 +0000 Date: Mon, 14 Jan 2002 21:01:00 +0000 From: Simon Tatham anakin@pobox.com Subject: PuTTY 0.52 is released PuTTY version 0.52 is released. All the pre-built binaries, and the source code, are now available from the PuTTY website at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ This long-awaited release is packed full of new features, many of which have been available in the development snapshots for some months now. The Changes page on the web site gives a full list of the new features, but here's a summary of the major ones: - There is now documentation! We have a complete manual for PuTTY and its tools, and this manual is also provided as a Windows Help file. - We now support public-key authentication in SSH2 (both RSA and DSA). - We now support SSH port forwarding and X11 forwarding. - We now support SFTP, the new file transfer mechanism in SSH2. We provide PSFTP, a dedicated SFTP client, and also the existing PSCP program will use SFTP if it can arrange it. In particular, this makes PSCP work with ssh.com servers (which support nothing other than SFTP). - PuTTY has vastly improved support for character sets in the terminal window - including UTF-8. - PuTTY now supports full-screen mode, a bit like a DOS box. In addition to these and other new features, we've also fixed some bugs in 0.51: - The AltGr key now works again. - The `Server failed host key check' message should _really_ be gone this time. - Error reporting is now much better. Enjoy using PuTTY!

Those people who want to avoid installers can still do so; those people who prefer them can have one. - PuTTY now supports proxies: SOCKS, HTTP and simple Telnet. - More configurability. - Lots of bug fixes. In particular, high-traffic port forwarding applications should find much more stability. Enjoy using PuTTY!

It should be fixed in 0.53b. - Security and robustness fixes; notably a change in random number policy which should give a significant security improvement for anyone running more than one PuTTY at the same time. Because of this security fix, we recommend that everyone upgrade to 0.53b as soon as possible, even if you do not need the -P bug fix. Enjoy using PuTTY!
