414 * NEW: CNID handling completely reworked. We now use per Volume configurable
416 * NEW: Two new daemons, cnid_metad and cnid_dbd to implement the dbd CNID backend.
417 Using Berkeley DB transactions with the CNID database should be safe now.
418 * NEW: The on disk format of the CNID database has changed. We now support 8 byte
419 device and inode numbers and an additinal type field that should make
420 detection of file/directory changes outside of afpd more robust.
421 Changed from HASH to BTREE access which speeds things up in certain cases
422 and reduces database file size.
423 * NEW: Long file name mangling is now implemented using the CNID ID, so no database is
424 required to map names to mangled names. This is the same method Mac OS X uses.
425 * NEW: New format (version 2) for Metadata in AppleDouble files. We record device and
426 inode of the underlying file as well as the CNID. This can be used for recovery
427 and speeds up access to the CNID.
428 * NEW: The old NLS codepage system has been removed. It was replaced by an iconv
429 based conversion system, which provides much more flexibility.
430 * NEW: You can safely use extended characters in volume names and for SIGUSR2 messaging.
431 * NEW: The default volume encoding is UTF-8.
432 * NEW: All documentation is now generated using DocBook. New or completely reworked
433 sections about installing, setting up and upgrading Netatalk replace various
434 README files in the doc directory.
435 * FIX: Protect afpd better against unexpected signals during updates of the CNID
436 database with the cdb backend. This makes database corruption less likely.
437 * FIX: All manpages have been reviewed and should now be up to date.
438 * FIX: Tons of bug fixes since 1.6.4. Please consults the CVS change log for details.

531 * FIX: Various bug and build fixes as well as code cleanups.
536 * NEW: Allow afpd debugging to be enabled by sending the afpd process
538 * NEW: Allow SLP to be disabled per afpd process by adding a new -noslp flag
540 * FIX: Use server name (if not NULL) for the SLP URL.
541 * FIX: papd: buffer overflow during config file read (Olaf Hering)
546 * FIX: File open read only and then read write (aka pb with Illustrator).
547 * FIX: Problems with unexpected EOF when reading files on a ddp connection
548 Photoshop, old finder.
549 * FIX: --with-nls-dir option does now work
554 * UPD: Extend the --disable-shell-check functionality to ignore users
555 with _no_ shell. Also, send a log message if a user is refused login
556 based on the fact that they have no shell.
557 * UPD: Autoconf updates.
558 * UPD: Tru64 afpd authentication updates.
559 * UPD: As always: lots of minor code cleanups.
560 * FIX: Problems with Photoshop trying to open image files has been
562 * FIX: Preserve special permission bits when creating or modifying
564 * FIX: afp_deleteid() now deletes the specified file and not the parent
566 * FIX: papd does now announce that it supports binary data to its clients.
567 * FIX: NetBSD ELF support.
568 * FIX: acleandir.rc is now installed in the bin directory.
569 * FIX: megatron does now compile even if compiled with -DDEBUG.
570 * FIX: Clean up some syslog messages.
575 * NEW: NetBSD support contributed by David Rankin and NetBSD contributors.
576 This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
577 * NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
578 the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
579 this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
580 * UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
581 * UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
582 out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
583 * UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
584 issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
585 fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
586 * UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
587 code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
588 order to avoid database corruption!
589 * FIX: The file AppleVolumes.system contained wrong line breaks so that
590 not all file types were properly recognized.
591 * FIX: AFS compilation would fail due to a misnamed variable.
592 * FIX: SLP configure check was wrong so SLP did not compile.
593 * FIX: Fix the way quotas are handled under certain situations.
594 * FIX: Do not enable debugging code if debugging option is not set.
595 * FIX: Some problems with wrongly assigned DIDs were fixed.
596 * FIX: Various bug fixes and code cleanups.
601 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
602 verify the consistency of the CNID database.
603 * NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
605 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
606 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
607 * FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
608 * FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
610 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
611 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
612 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
613 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
618 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
619 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
620 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
621 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
626 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
627 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
628 generated during package build.
629 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
630 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
631 and prior bounds checking.
633 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
634 ===============================
636 * Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
638 * Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
640 * Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
643 * Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
645 * Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
648 * Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
650 * Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
652 * Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
654 * Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
657 * Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
659 * Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
661 * Moved all the config files to .../config.
663 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
664 ===============================
666 * Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
669 * Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
672 * All sorts of other stuff.
674 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
675 ===============================
677 * Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
678 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
681 * Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
683 * Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
684 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
685 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
687 * Added Kerberos support to papd.
689 * atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
692 * Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
693 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
694 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
695 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
698 * atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
699 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
700 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
701 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
702 the owner doesn't have write permission.
704 * Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
705 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
708 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
711 * Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
712 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
713 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
715 * Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
716 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
718 * !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
719 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
720 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
721 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
722 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
725 * Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
727 * Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
728 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
729 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
731 * afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
732 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
735 * Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
736 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
737 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
739 * Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
740 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
743 * Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
744 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
745 on the Mac gray-ed out.
747 * Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
748 which improves permission inheritance.
750 * Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
751 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
752 users aren't interested in.
754 * Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
755 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
757 * Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
760 * Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
761 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
762 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
763 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
765 * Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
766 ever worked right on little endian machines!
768 * Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
769 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
771 * Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
772 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
775 Changes from the 1.3 release:
776 =============================
778 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
779 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
780 (corrupted) database.
782 * Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
783 when copying to afpd.
785 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
786 contain the written icon.
788 * Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
789 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
790 machine running afpd.
792 * Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
793 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
795 * Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
796 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
797 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
798 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
800 * Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
802 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
803 ===============================
805 * atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
806 from previous version will not work!
808 * afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
809 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
810 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
811 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
813 * afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
816 * There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
818 Changes from the 1.2 release:
819 =============================
821 * The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
822 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
823 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
825 * The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
826 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
827 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
828 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
830 * The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
832 * aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
834 * nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
835 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
836 environment variable.
838 * nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
840 * afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
841 silently denying service.
843 * A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
844 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
846 * Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
847 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
849 * atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
852 * atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
853 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
854 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
856 * pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
857 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
858 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
859 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
860 card for HP LJIIISIs.
862 * pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
865 * A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
866 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
868 * A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
870 * atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
871 hasn't recieved anything yet.
873 * atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
874 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
875 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
877 * Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
880 * The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
882 * The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
884 * The README files for various machine have been updated
