New cs version

v.1.12 -Release Candidate 5:
Added Nagra2 support!! Read Special notes! (Nagra1 still not supported, funny eyh?
Fixed bug that made radegast server hang.
Added numbering to sids in tcp-command.
Fixed bug in dreamcrypt, sorry..
Misc. bugfixes etc.
Added support for multiple Infinity-usb devices.

Nagra Ver.2:
Well, finally..
There are some problems with nagra2, on old boxes thats upgraded, you most probably only need the boxkey,
but on new boxes you have to get out both and add, the boxkey " <boxkey></boxkey> " AND a RSA key " <rsa></rsa> " in reader section.
The procedure is not known to us, so please dont ask..

Tested Providers:
- DigiTV
- Polsat
- D+

NB!
There are only ECM support at this moment, EMM will hopefully be in next release

Newcs_gui_1.2

NewcsGUI

DESCRIPTION
=================================================
This micro utility, was only a species of wrapper
of newcs.
It executes normally newcs and at the same time hide
the window dos in which it comes executed.
All the output of newcs it will comes redirected towards
this utility allowing therefore the minimal control
on eventual error messages.
=================================================

USE
=================================================
* IMPORTANT *
Newscs must be just configured and working.
* IMPORTANT *

Copy all the content of the \Bin folder in the
directory of newcs and put a link of execytable
in Startup folder of windows.
Rename, if not, the configuration file used by
newcs in ' newcs.xml '.
After restart newscsgui will execute automatically
newcs and it will stay in the systray.
All the operations must be carried out through
the systray icon of newcsgui.

For create new language file, copy of one language
file just present and rename it in your language name.
For every row of language file, translate and modify
only what come after the ':' char.
=================================================

*BE AWARE*
==================================================
This utility, that i made for my personal use,
DOES NOT WANT to be a debug instrument or to replace
completely or in part newcs !
The only use of this file was to hide newcs windows
and for simplifying modification and reading of the xml.
================================================== =

DEVELOP
=================================================
Written in Delphi7, uses two external "lib" for the management
of the icona in systemtray and the some operations about strings
(attached) and the compontente of the JVCL (http://www.delphi-jedi.org/)
- CreateProcess- that I use in order to execute, hide and
redirect the output of newcs.

v.1.13 -Release Candidate 6:
Fixed bug in Nagra2, for cards that use dt08.
Better info in users tcp-command, also for radegast users now. (show tcp-connections to rdgd)
Fixed bug in Nagra2 sessionkey implementation.
Fixed bug in config-reading, some options was case-sensitive.
Fixed 3.57mhz in infinity reader.
Added Nagra2 EMM (needs support in camd).
Added <deny> for readers in <user>-tag.
Added dynamic ECM cache. (uses less ram)
Optimize N2 on all devices.

v.1.15 -Release Candidate 8:
Fixed delete newcs.pid when using shutdown tcp-command.
Added possibility to overclock the dreambox readers. (be careful..)
Added client-detection for all known clients, look in special notes for more info.
Fixed recieving client-id on reverse login.
Added HTTP interface, point the browser to the tcp-port. (http://iport/)
Fixed SID-handling again, now AU-users are free of the SID-filter.
Added support for SC8 on windows, atleast some CAS (we need logs of those which dont work).
Fixed Adduser tcp-command, users couldnt login.
Added Nagra2 entitlements.
Added Conax PPV entitlements.
Misc. bugfixes.
Added PC/SC support.
NB! For PC/SC support you have to install pcsc-lite and configure it.

v.1.16 -Release Candidate 9
Fixed version numbering, seems we skipped v.1.15 in binary.. *blush*
More commands available from webinterface.
Fixed problem (we think) with SID-filter if no static or autosid where enabled.
Now own option for users to override the SID-filter (instead of AU-user).
Removed the support for users in own .txt file, the "addusers" are now written directly into the xml configfile.
Fixed misc debug messages.
Fixed some bugs with PC/SC reader.
Fixed a problem with xml-tags in config beeing case-sensitive. (they are now case-insensitive!)
Added debug when missing config elements in user-sections.
Fixed bug in cryptoworks entitlements, thanks for proper debug/logs Augenzwinkern
Fixed humongus bug in the ban tcp-command.
Fixed Nagra blocker for EMM-G, thanks for proper debug/logs Augenzwinkern

NB!
pcsc-lite is only needed on linux, on windows it should go automatic smile

NewCS v.1.3 Stable Release

NewCS v.1.3 Stable Release

v.1.3 -Stable Release
Okay, first of all we want to apologise for the looong wait.. we have been working hard though, honest!
This is just a minor release though, was time for some bugfixes - and so you know that we're still alive!

Changes from previous release are too many to mention here (tbh. we have lost control over the changelog )
There have been alot of fixes, hopefully its bit more stable now then before..
Can also mention that we have added DGcrypt (wherever thats used..)
Also we have compiled support for the Kathrein box, even though it might not be quite useful (seems awfully buggy)

The big changes and features are planned for the next major release (v1.5 series)

1.-- Chameleon - the newcs P2P ------- --- -- - - -

Here we will _try_ to make a little introduction on how the P2P network works.
You have to start by creating your own self-signed Certificate, this can be done with this command on a machine that has openssl installed:
openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -out newcs.pem -keyout newcs.pem
or you can create a certificate on a online site, there is some that creates self-signed certificates.
The connection from newcs<->newcs is encrypted with SSL.

After creating the certificate, place it somewhere and make sure the path in the <certificate> tag in the global section reflects that.
Go through the <chameleon> section, and set your port, create users if you need incomming connections, peers if you need outgoing connections.
If you want incomming connections, the tcp-port specified needs to be open in your router (NAT or similar).

When the server is started, it will generate a random 2byte hex serverID - this will be the ID of your server for this session, the other servers
in the network will locate you based on this ID _only_. Only your peers know your details, _noone_ else on the network know your details -to 3rd parties
the network is completely anonymous.

Clients have to connect to Chameleon through the Feynman server in NewCS, through here the client will send ECM to Chameleon. Chameleon will then
broadcast a ECM to all serverID's in the network that has this CAID/Provider, all that can, answer with a valid dcw. The 3 fastest replies will
be remembered, and Chameleon will continue now to send _only_ to the fastest replier. Chameleon will try to keep a timeing to the next fastest server
so it can switch when another one is faster.
For the moment, Mgcamd 1.2x can also get the chameleon cards through newcamd protocol IF the user it use to login has <cardlevel> set to 1.

If a client send more then 10 requests for a sid, and dont get a valid dcw - this client is blocked on this sid for another 100 requests to prevent
broadcast spamming.


2.-- Feynman Protocol ------- --- -- - - -

Feynman is a protocol written by us, it can handle multiple cards over one port, EMM, ECM - handle SIDS on both sides. It provides simple functions, so
client and server developers can think about other important stuff
We hope that this will be the new "standard" in the sat hobby - like newcamd has been in the past few years
Newcamd has been a great protocol, but it has its limitations - and we hope to phase out newcamd (and radegast) in the next major version of NewCS.

Would be nice if someone could make a sourceforge project, or some other opensource project site.
PLEASE, we give this as opensource, please keep it that way
Feedback is appriciated, hope someone will take this as a project to improve and nurse
