52 * NEW: Long file name mangling support.
53 * NEW: Improved log file support.
54 * NEW: Server-side find capability ("FPCatSearch")
55 * NEW: Concurrent datastore (CDB) is now the default CNID datastore. This

93 * FIX: afp_deleteid() now deletes the specified file and not the parent
95 * FIX: papd does now announce that it supports binary data to its clients.
96 * FIX: NetBSD ELF support.
97 * FIX: acleandir.rc is now installed in the bin directory.
98 * FIX: megatron does now compile even if compiled with -DDEBUG.

105 This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
106 * NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
107 the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
108 this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
109 * UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
110 * UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
111 out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
112 * UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
113 issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
114 fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
115 * UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
116 code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
117 order to avoid database corruption!
118 * FIX: The file AppleVolumes.system contained wrong line breaks so that
119 not all file types were properly recognized.
120 * FIX: AFS compilation would fail due to a misnamed variable.
121 * FIX: SLP configure check was wrong so SLP did not compile.
122 * FIX: Fix the way quotas are handled under certain situations.
123 * FIX: Do not enable debugging code if debugging option is not set.
124 * FIX: Some problems with wrongly assigned DIDs were fixed.
125 * FIX: Various bug fixes and code cleanups.
130 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
131 verify the consistency of the CNID database.

134 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
135 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
136 * FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
137 * FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
139 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
140 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
141 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
142 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
147 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
148 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
149 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
150 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
155 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
156 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
157 generated during package build.
158 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
159 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
160 and prior bounds checking.
162 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
164 Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
166 Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
168 Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
171 Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
173 Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
176 Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
178 Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
180 Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
182 Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
185 Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
187 Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
189 Moved all the config files to .../config.
191 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
193 Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
196 Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
199 All sorts of other stuff.
201 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
203 Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
204 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
207 Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
209 Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
210 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
211 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
213 Added Kerberos support to papd.
215 atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
218 Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
219 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
220 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
221 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
224 atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
225 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
226 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
227 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
228 the owner doesn't have write permission.
230 Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
231 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
234 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
237 Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
238 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
239 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
241 Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
242 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
244 !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
245 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
246 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
247 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
248 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
251 Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
253 Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
254 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
255 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
257 afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
258 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
261 Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
262 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
263 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
265 Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
266 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
269 Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
270 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
271 on the Mac gray-ed out.
273 Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
274 which improves permission inheritance.
276 Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
277 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
278 users aren't interested in.
280 Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
281 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
283 Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
286 Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
287 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
288 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
289 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
291 Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
292 ever worked right on little endian machines!
294 Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
295 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
297 Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
298 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
301 Changes from the 1.3 release:
303 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
304 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
305 (corrupted) database.
307 Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
308 when copying to afpd.
310 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
311 contain the written icon.
313 Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
314 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
315 machine running afpd.
317 Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
318 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
320 Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
321 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
322 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
323 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
325 Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
327 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
329 atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
330 from previous version will not work!
332 afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
333 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
334 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
335 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
337 afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
340 There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
342 Changes from the 1.2 release:
344 The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
345 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
346 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
348 The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
349 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
350 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
351 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
353 The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
355 aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
357 nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
358 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
359 environment variable.
361 nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
363 afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
364 silently denying service.
366 A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
367 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
369 Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
370 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
372 atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
375 atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
376 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
377 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
379 pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
380 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
381 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
382 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
383 card for HP LJIIISIs.
385 pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
388 A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
389 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
391 A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
393 atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
394 hasn't recieved anything yet.
396 atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
397 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
398 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
400 Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
403 The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
405 The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
407 The README files for various machine have been updated
