This release adds a configurable timeout when waiting for new incoming DHCP packet. It adds documentation for usable DHCP options in pydhcplib. Python2.5 is forced in setup. There are miscellaneous bugfixes.
This release corrects the server identifier data type, a 32-bit option error when printed, and dhcp_message_type string import. A mailing list for pydhcplib discussion now exists.
A major improvement was made to the pydhcp admin
tool, namely the possibility to read and write
DHCP packets in a human readable file format and
to generate binaries for network I/O. DHCP packets
can be sent from and stored in files. In the
library, source address is added for a received
packet. Bugs were fixed. The code was cleaned up.
