    3: IPv6 not working right.
    4: 
    5: Problem with ACME News downloads.  PATH_INFO interferes with the authorization.
    6: 
    7: Why is the client's IP address showing up in paths?
    8: 
    9: Fetches with numeric IP addresses and no Host: header are screwing up the
   10: vhost code?

   13: 
   14: Have directory indexing skip files that start with dot?  Except ..?
   15: In libhttpd.c:
   16: +               if (*(de->d_name) == '.' && *(de->d_name+1) != '.')
   17: +                   continue;

   19: 
   20: Add comment on INDEX_NAMES that it should be simple filenames only.
   21: 
   22: The error page generated for non-local referers should include the
   23: original URL as an active link.
   24: 
   25: Make open in mmc.c use O_NONBLOCK flag, to prevent DOS attack via
   26: a named pipe?

   29: 
   30: Document how symlinks interact with .htpasswd - authorization is checked
   31: on the result of the symlink, and not the origin.
   32: 
   33: SIGHUP log re-opening doesn't work if you started as root.
   34:

   47: 
   48: The special world-permissions checking is probably bogus.  For one
   49: thing, it doesn't handle restrictive permissions on parent directories
   50: properly.  It should probably just go away.
   51: 
   52: redirect should interpret a path with a trailing / as /index.html
   53: 
   54: ssi should change $cwd to the source document's location.
