of "authorized_keys2" by default. I believe this change was made in OpenSSH
around June 2001, so any versions which it applies should have been replaced
by now for other reasons.
(The docs still adequately document the confusion surrounding this)

attempt to load WS2 and then fall back to WS1 if that fails. This
should allow us to use WS2-specific functionality to find out the
local system's list of IP addresses, thus fixing winnet-if2lo, while
degrading gracefully back to the previous behaviour if that
functionality is unavailable. (I haven't yet actually done this; I've
just laid the groundwork.)
This checkin _may_ cause instability; it seemed fine to me on
initial testing, but it's a bit of an upheaval and I wouldn't like
to make bets on it just yet.

functions have sprouted `**errorstr' arguments, which if non-NULL can
return a textual error message. The interface additions are patchy and
ad-hoc since this seemed to suit the style of the existing interfaces.
I've since realised that most of this is masked by sanity-checking that
gets done before these functions are called, but it will at least report
MAC failures and the like (tested on Unix), which was the original point
of the exercise.
Note that not everyone who could be using this information is at the
moment.

malloc functions, which automatically cast to the same type they're
allocating the size of. Should prevent any future errors involving
mallocing the size of the wrong structure type, and will also make
life easier if we ever need to turn the PuTTY core code from real C
into C++-friendly C. I haven't touched the Mac frontend in this
checkin because I couldn't compile or test it.

it started up. The problem was that I was accepting _any_ event on
IDC_GENERATE to trigger this, not just the `clicked' event, and some
uninteresting event like `initialise' must have occurred. Quite why
this only showed up as a result of the config box revamp I can't
imagine.
[originally from svn r2972]
opaque to all platform-independent modules and only handled within
per-platform code. `Filename' is there because the Mac has a magic
way to store filenames (though currently this checkin doesn't
support it!); `FontSpec' is there so that all the auxiliary stuff
such as font height and charset and so on which is needed under
Windows but not Unix can be kept where it belongs, and so that I can
have a hope in hell of dealing with a font chooser in the forthcoming
cross-platform config box code, and best of all it gets the horrid
font height wart out of settings.c and into the Windows code where
it should be.
The Mac part of this checkin is a bunch of random guesses which will
probably not quite compile, but which look roughly right to me.
Sorry if I screwed it up, Ben :-)

users. Update the file selection dialogs to mention it per the usual Windows
convention, and also sprinkle references to it throughout the docs. I've
also scattered hints that most tools need PuTTY's native format; perhaps this
will reduce the frequency with which FAQ A.1.2 trips people up.

absent, and also (I think) all the frontend request functions (such
as request_resize) take a context pointer, so that multiple windows
can be handled sensibly. I wouldn't swear to this, but I _think_
that only leaves the Unicode stuff as the last stubborn holdout.

The current pty.c backend is temporarily a loopback device for
terminal emulator testing, the display handling is only just enough
to show that terminal.c is functioning, the keyboard handling is
laughable, and most features are absent. Next step: bring output and
input up to a plausibly working state, and put a real pty on the
back to create a vaguely usable prototype. Oh, and a scrollbar would
be nice too.
In _theory_ the Windows builds should still work fine after this...

was not the same as the new one, violating the Principle of Least

Import command; the former warns you if you load a foreign key,
whereas the latter doesn't. So the user should always be aware, one
way or the other, that a format conversion is taking place.

Specifically, we explicitly closesocket() all open sockets, which
appears to be necessary since otherwise Windows sends RST rather
than FIN. I'm _sure_ that's a Windows bug, but there we go.

implemented context help in PuTTYgen to go with it. Shame there
isn't space for a generic `Help' button in the PuTTYgen window.

now a passphrase-keyed MAC covering _all_ important data in the
file, including the public blob and the key comment. Should
conclusively scupper any attacks based on nobbling the key file in
an attempt to sucker the machine that decrypts it. MACing the
comment field also protects against a key-substitution attack (if
someone's worked out a way past our DSA protections and can extract
the private key from a signature, swapping key files and
substituting comments might just enable them to get the signature
they need to do this. Paranoid, but might as well).

(as well as showing it for cut and paste). For SSH1, this feature is
largely cosmetic and added for orthogonality; it comes into its own
in SSH2, where it saves the Official One True Public Key Format as
specified in the draft spec, and more particularly as used by
ssh.com's product for authentication. Now that ssh-3.0.1 supports
RSA user keys, this is suddenly actually useful.

spawn another command after starting Pageant. Also, if Pageant is
already running, `pageant keyfile' and `pageant -c command' will do
the Right Thing, that is, add the key to the _first_ Pageant and/or
run a command and then exit. The only time you now get the `Pageant
is already running' error is if you try to start the second copy
with no arguments.
NB the affected files in this checkin are rather wide-ranging
because I renamed the not really SSH1-specific
`ssh1_bignum_bitcount' function to just `bignum_bitcount'.
[originally from svn r1044]
error messages are currently wrong, and Pageant doesn't yet support
the new key type, and I haven't thoroughly tested that falling back
to password authentication and trying invalid keys etc all work. But
what I have here has successfully performed a public key
authentication, so it's working to at least some extent.

smalloc() macros and thence to the safemalloc() functions in misc.c.
This should allow me to plug in a debugging allocator and track
memory leaks and segfaults and things.

the primegen() function doesn't work well with <100 bits, so RSA
keys need to be >=200 to be generated correctly, and I thought 256
was a nice round number beyond that just to be sure. Perhaps I
should also have a security warning on any key less than 768; or
perhaps I should let people shoot themselves in the feet if they
really want to.
