+
+Changes in release 2.5.0
+
+* Communication security/authentication: Kerberos 4/5, OpenSSH
+* Data security: Symmetric/Assymetric encrytion algorithms (aesutil
+ and gpg encryption), Encryption can be done on server or client,
+ Custom encryption utilities can be used.
+* Compression: Ability to add custom compression tools. This is a
+ really useful feature especially since it can specified for a DLE. You
+ can use different compression algorithm for images, binaries, ascii files
+ and so on.
+* Dump images spanning multiple media volumes - Dump images are no
+ longer restricted to a single media volume (tape or vtape). Data restoration
+ can be done using amrecover and amfetchdump commands.
+* Auto tape labelling - This optional feature is good for disk backups.

+Changes in release 2.4.2
-* Mostly bug fixes.
* Samba passwords are now sent to smbclient via a pipe and never displayed.
-* Amrecover should now work with xfsrestore.
-* Amrecover no longer binds an incorrect port that resulted in connection
- failures on some systems.
* Debug files in /tmp/amanda (--with-debug-dir) are now timestamped and old
ones automatically cleaned out. This means more space (a few KBytes) will
be used since in a given run, several of the programs are called more than
be lost by the file being overwritten. The length of time to keep the
files is controlled by --with-debug-days (default: 4). The old flag
--with-pid-debug-files is no longer needed and is ignored.
-* updated chg-zd-mtx.sh.in changer.
