12 This affected application like Adobe Photoshop where saving
13 files may fail. Fixes bug #511.
14 * UPD: Enhance ACL mapping, change global ACL option 'map acl' to take
15 the following options: "none", "rights" (default), "mode".
16 none = no mapping, this resembles the previous false/no setting
17 rights = map ACLs to Finder UARights, this resembles the previous
18 true/yes setting. This is the default.
19 mode = map ACLs to Finder UARights and UNIX mode
21 * FIX: Fix a possible crash in cname() where cname_mtouname calls
22 dirlookup() where the curdir is freed because the dircache
23 detected a dev/inode cache difference and evicted the object
24 from the cache. Fixes bug #498.
25 * FIX: Add missing include, fixes bug #512.
26 * FIX: Change default FinderInfo for directories to be all 0, fixes
28 * NEW: New option "afp interfaces" which allows specifying where

43 * FIX: Fix an issue with user homes when user home directory has not the
44 same name as the username.
46 * UPD: Fix PAM config install, new default installation dir is
47 $sysconfdir/pam.d/. Add configure option --with-pam-confdir
48 to specify alternative path.
49 * NEW: AFP stats about active session via dbus IPC. Client side python
50 program `afpstats`. Requires dbus, dbus-glib any python-dbus.
51 configure option --dbus-sysconf-dir for specifying dbus
52 system security configuration files.
53 New option 'afpstats' (default: no) which determines whether
54 to enable the feature or not.
55 * NEW: configure option --with-init-dir
56 * NEW: dtrace probes, cf include/atalk/afp_dtrace.d for available
58 * UPD: Reload groups when reloading volumes. FR #71.
59 * FIX: Attempt to read read-only ._ rfork results in disconnect.

99 * FIX: Fix a race condition between dbd and the cnid_dbd daemon
100 which could result in users being disconnected from volumes
101 when dbd was scanning their volumes. Fixes bug #477.
102 * FIX: Netatalk didn't start when the last line of the config file
103 afp.conf wasn't terminated by a newline. Fixes bug #476.
104 * NEW: Add a new volumes option 'follow symlinks'. The default setting is
105 false, symlinks are not followed on the server. This is the same
106 behaviour as OS X's AFP server.
107 Setting the option to true causes afpd to follow symlinks on the
108 server. symlinks may point outside of the AFP volume, currently
109 afpd doesn't do any checks for "wide symlinks".
110 * FIX: Automatic AppleDouble conversion to EAs failing for directories.
112 * FIX: dbd failed to convert appledouble files of symlinks.
117 * NEW: afpd: Optional "ldap uuid encoding = string | ms-guid" parameter to
118 afp.conf, allowing for usage of the binary objectGUID fields from
120 * FIX: afpd: Fix a Solaris 10 SPARC sendfilev bug
121 * FIX: afpd: Fix a crash on FreeBSD

131 * UPD: Install relevant includes necessary for building programs with
132 installed headers and shared lib libatalk
133 * UPD: libevent configure args to pick up installed version. Removed

151 * FIX: Solaris and friends: resource fork handling
156 * UPD: afpd: Performance tuning of read/write AFP operations. New option
157 "afp read locks" (default: no) which disables that the server
158 applies UNIX byte range locks to regions of files in AFP read and
160 * UPD: apple_dump: Extended Attributes AppleDouble support.
161 (*BSD is not supported yet)

168 with Solaris CIFS/SMB server. Uses new Solaris fcntl F_SHARE share
169 reservation locking primitives. Enabled by default, set global
170 "solaris share reservations" option to false to disable it.
171 * NEW: ad: ad set subcommand for changing Mac metadata on the server
172 * UPD: unix charset is UTF8 by default.
173 vol charset is same value as unix charset by default.
174 * UPD: .AppleDesktop/ are stored in $localstatedir/netatalk/CNID
175 (default: /var/netatalk/CNID), databases found in AFP volumes are
177 * FIX: afpd: Server info packet was malformed resulting in broken
178 server names being displayed on clients
179 * FIX: afpd: Byte order detection. Fixes an error where Netatalk on
180 OpenIndiana returned wrong volume size information.
182 Changes in 3.0 alpha2
183 =====================

188 containing CAP sequences to their not enscaped forms
189 * UPD: afpd: Correct handling of user homes and users without homes
190 * UPD: afpd: Perform complete automatic adouble:v2 to adouble:ea conversion
191 as root. Previously only unlinking the adouble:v2 file was done as root
192 * UPD: dbd: -C option removes CAP encoding
193 * UPD: Add graceful option to RedHat init script
194 * UPD: Add --disable-bundled-libevent configure options When set to yes,
195 we rely on a properly installed version on libevent CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS
196 should be set properly to pick that up
197 * UPD: Run ldconfig on Linux at the end of make install
198 * FIX: afpd: ad cp on appledouble = ea volumes
199 * FIX: dbd: ignore ._ appledouble files

245 * UPD: afpd: Use GSS_C_NO_NAME as server principal when Kerberos options -fqdn
246 and -krb5service are not set, from Jamie Gilbertson
247 * UPD: afpd: Changed behaviour for TimeMachine volumes in case there's a problem
248 talking to the CNID daemons. Previously the volume was flagged read-only
249 and an AFP message was sent to the client. As this might result in
250 TimeMachine assuming the backup sparse bundle is damaged, we now just
251 switch the CNID database to an in-memory tdb without the additional stuff.
252 * FIX: afpd: sendfile() on FreeBSD was broken, courtesy of Denis Ahrens
253 * FIX: afpd: Dont use searchdb when doing partial name search

267 whenever a normal user login fails, afpd tries to authenticate as
268 the specified adminauthuser. If this succeeds, a normal session is
269 created for the original connecting user. Said differently: if you
270 know the password of adminauthuser, you can authenticate as any other
272 * NEW: configure option "--enable-suse-systemd" for openSUSE12.1 and later.
273 "--enable-redhat-systemd" and "--enable-suse-systemd" are same as
275 "--enable-suse" is renamed "--enable-suse-sysv".

422 ".AppleDesktop/.volinfo" file of the volume in order to figure
423 out the CNID db path and the volume charset encoding.
428 * NEW: Enhanced CNID "dbd" database for fast name search support.

901 =====================
903 * NEW: afpd: We now support AFP 3.x, which features long filenames and
905 * NEW: CNID handling completely reworked. We now use per Volume configurable
907 * NEW: Two new daemons, cnid_metad and cnid_dbd to implement the dbd CNID backend.
908 Using Berkeley DB transactions with the CNID database should be safe now.
909 * NEW: The on disk format of the CNID database has changed. We now support 8 byte
910 device and inode numbers and an additinal type field that should make
911 detection of file/directory changes outside of afpd more robust.
912 Changed from HASH to BTREE access which speeds things up in certain cases
913 and reduces database file size.
914 * NEW: Long file name mangling is now implemented using the CNID ID, so no database is
915 required to map names to mangled names. This is the same method Mac OS X uses.
916 * NEW: New format (version 2) for Metadata in AppleDouble files. We record device and
917 inode of the underlying file as well as the CNID. This can be used for recovery
918 and speeds up access to the CNID.
919 * NEW: The old NLS codepage system has been removed. It was replaced by an iconv
920 based conversion system, which provides much more flexibility.
921 * NEW: You can safely use extended characters in volume names and for SIGUSR2 messaging.
922 * NEW: The default volume encoding is UTF-8.
923 * NEW: All documentation is now generated using DocBook. New or completely reworked
924 sections about installing, setting up and upgrading Netatalk replace various
925 README files in the doc directory.
926 * FIX: Protect afpd better against unexpected signals during updates of the CNID
927 database with the cdb backend. This makes database corruption less likely.
928 * FIX: All manpages have been reviewed and should now be up to date.
929 * FIX: Tons of bug fixes since 1.6.4. Please consults the CVS change log for details.
934 * NEW: afpd: Using the mswindows option now implicitly specifies usedots.

1086 * FIX: Some problems with wrongly assigned DIDs were fixed.
1087 * FIX: Various bug fixes and code cleanups.
1092 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
1093 verify the consistency of the CNID database.
1094 * NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
1096 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
1097 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
1098 * FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
1099 * FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
1101 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
1102 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
1103 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
1104 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
1109 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
1110 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
1111 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
1112 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
1117 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
1118 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
1119 generated during package build.
1120 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
1121 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
1122 and prior bounds checking.
1124 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
1125 ===============================
1127 * Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
1129 * Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
1131 * Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
1134 * Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
1136 * Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
1139 * Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
1141 * Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
1143 * Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
1145 * Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
1148 * Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
1150 * Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
1152 * Moved all the config files to .../config.
1154 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
1155 ===============================
1157 * Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
1160 * Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
1163 * All sorts of other stuff.
1165 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
1166 ===============================
1168 * Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
1169 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
1172 * Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
1174 * Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
1175 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
1176 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
1178 * Added Kerberos support to papd.
1180 * atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
1181 it, but it's closer.
1183 * Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
1184 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
1185 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
1186 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
1189 * atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
1190 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
1191 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
1192 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
1193 the owner doesn't have write permission.
1195 * Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
1196 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
1199 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
1202 * Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
1203 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
1204 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
1206 * Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
1207 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
1209 * !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
1210 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
1211 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
1212 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
1213 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
1216 * Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
1218 * Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
1219 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
1220 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
1222 * afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
1223 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
1224 for AFS directories.
1226 * Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
1227 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
1228 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
1230 * Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
1231 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
1234 * Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
1235 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
1236 on the Mac gray-ed out.
1238 * Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
1239 which improves permission inheritance.
1241 * Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
1242 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
1243 users aren't interested in.
1245 * Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
1246 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
1248 * Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
1251 * Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
1252 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
1253 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
1254 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
1256 * Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
1257 ever worked right on little endian machines!
1259 * Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
1260 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
1262 * Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
1263 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
1266 Changes from the 1.3 release:
1267 =============================
1269 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
1270 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
1271 (corrupted) database.
1273 * Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
1274 when copying to afpd.
1276 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
1277 contain the written icon.
1279 * Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
1280 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
1281 machine running afpd.
1283 * Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
1284 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
1286 * Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
1287 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
1288 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
1289 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
1291 * Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
1293 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
1294 ===============================
1296 * atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
1297 from previous version will not work!
1299 * afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
1300 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
1301 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
1302 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
1304 * afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
1307 * There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
1309 Changes from the 1.2 release:
1310 =============================
1312 * The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
1313 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
1314 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
1316 * The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
1317 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
1318 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
1319 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
1321 * The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
1323 * aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
1325 * nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
1326 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
1327 environment variable.
1329 * nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
1331 * afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
1332 silently denying service.
1334 * A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
1335 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
1337 * Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
1338 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
1340 * atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
1343 * atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
1344 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
1345 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
1347 * pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
1348 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
1349 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
1350 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
1351 card for HP LJIIISIs.
1353 * pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
1356 * A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
1357 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
1359 * A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
1361 * atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
1362 hasn't recieved anything yet.
1364 * atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
1365 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
1366 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
1368 * Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
1371 * The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
1373 * The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
1375 * The README files for various machine have been updated
