seqfile gone

[dpocock]

I notice seqfile is gone from the config.

I remember the file being created at some point in the past but I don't recall what changed.

I looked through the repository and found commit 3c3caa0 which introduces an rc_get_id() method, using random() to generate the sequence number and stripping out all code for the seqfile itself.

Maybe this is something else that should be mentioned in a file about upgrading from FreeRADIUS-client and its predecessors. People can delete the seqfile if it exists on their system and remove those lines from their config.

This is before my time in freeradius-client and I've never used seqfile. Do yo have some suggested text for that? I think it can be part of the readme file in github.

Looking here: ftp://ftp.freeradius.org/pub/freeradius/old/

it appears that 1.1.6 was released 2007-04-11

The seqfile support was removed by commit 3c3caa0 on 2010-02-04 so this change was only released in FreeRADIUS-client 1.1.7 and radcli 1.2.0.

It is mentioned briefly in doc/ChangeLog, maybe you should combine doc/ChangeLog and NEWS into one file to avoid confusion? I've submitted pull request #7 expanding details about it in doc/ChangeLog

Should be addressed by your PR.
