+ Changes since October 27, 1999
+
+- Fix some inconsistencies in printf formats and clean up some error
+ messages (thanks to Albert Herranz).
+
+- Fix a bug in the default handling of in-addr DDNS updates (thanks to
+ Albert Herranz, and also I think one other person sent me a patch,
+ but I've forgotten who).
+
+- Fix the DDNS update behaviour on startup so that no actions are
+ taken until the entire lease file has been read. This prevents
+ old, expired records from deleting valid A and PTR records, which
+ created an inconsistency in the DHCP server's idea of what was
+ stored in the DNS, such that it would never again attempt to update
+ those records.
+
+- If the deletion of a name fails, assume that this means it's
+ already been deleted, and forget the record associated with it.
+ This allows the server to recover if the A and/or PTR records are
+ deleted out from under it, although it leaves open the possibility
+ that a name server failure could result in an A record never
+ being deleted.
+
+- Open the db file for append after reading it, so that if the global
+ pool expiry that is done after the database is read results in
+ leases being written, the server will not dump core.
