Folks,

The first release candidate of HylaFAX 4.2.5 is now available at:

     ftp://ftp.hylafax.org/source/BETA/hylafax-4.2.5rc1.tar.gz

The changes from 4.2.4 are few, but important:

* Include crypt.h where necessary (BUG 722) (9 Jan 2005)
* Fix eval sed in faxrcvd script (BUG 719) (9 Jan 2006)
* Fix shell comments in nofity AWK script (BUG 719) (9 Jan 2006)

We'd be grateful if as many people as possible could download, compile, 
install and test this as soon as possible so that we can make sure we don't 
issue another broken release. If no major problems are found, this will 
become an official 4.2.5 release late tomorrow, or early Wednesday.

I've attached a diff file between 4.2.4 and 4.2.5rc1 for those who may wish 
to patch a local copy, or simply want some insight into what we changed.

-Darren
