1.502 Apr 2016 21:56
minor feature:
mmap memory-mapped-file support added for ip region files and blacklist/whitelist files. If a long-lived program keeps these files shared mmaped, then pam_ihosts (which gets briefly run when a login occurs) won't have to load these files from disk, giving a signficant performance boost.

major feature:
Now builds on 64-bit linux. DNS blacklists or whitelists like zen.spamhaus.org now supported for allow/deny logins. Manpage reworked.

minor bugfix:
the 'script' option had a fault. If a script is called on allow/deny and one of it's options (say, IP region) cannot be obtained and is NULL, the script will fail. This has been fixed along with a minor memory leak.
