39 * FIX: CNID, folders' DID handling with concurrent access or symlinks.
40 (Fixes an endless loop in afpd.)
45 * FIX: pap looks at the STDOUT file descriptor to see if it's connected to

63 * NEW: Improved log file support.
64 * NEW: Server-side find capability ("FPCatSearch")
65 * NEW: Concurrent datastore (CDB) is now the default CNID datastore. This

97 * UPD: Tru64 afpd authentication updates.
98 * UPD: As always: lots of minor code cleanups.
99 * FIX: Problems with Photoshop trying to open image files has been
101 * FIX: Preserve special permission bits when creating or modifying
103 * FIX: afp_deleteid() now deletes the specified file and not the parent
105 * FIX: papd does now announce that it supports binary data to its clients.
106 * FIX: NetBSD ELF support.
107 * FIX: acleandir.rc is now installed in the bin directory.
108 * FIX: megatron does now compile even if compiled with -DDEBUG.
109 * FIX: Clean up some syslog messages.
114 * NEW: NetBSD support contributed by David Rankin and NetBSD contributors.
115 This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
116 * NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
117 the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
118 this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
119 * UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
120 * UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
121 out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
122 * UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
123 issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
124 fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
125 * UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
126 code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
127 order to avoid database corruption!
128 * FIX: The file AppleVolumes.system contained wrong line breaks so that
129 not all file types were properly recognized.
130 * FIX: AFS compilation would fail due to a misnamed variable.
131 * FIX: SLP configure check was wrong so SLP did not compile.
132 * FIX: Fix the way quotas are handled under certain situations.
133 * FIX: Do not enable debugging code if debugging option is not set.
134 * FIX: Some problems with wrongly assigned DIDs were fixed.
135 * FIX: Various bug fixes and code cleanups.
140 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
141 verify the consistency of the CNID database.
142 * NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
144 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
145 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
146 * FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
147 * FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
149 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
150 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
151 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
152 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
157 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
158 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
159 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
160 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
165 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
166 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
167 generated during package build.
168 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
169 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
170 and prior bounds checking.
172 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
174 Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
176 Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
178 Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
181 Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
183 Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
186 Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
188 Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
190 Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
192 Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
195 Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
197 Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
199 Moved all the config files to .../config.
201 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
203 Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
206 Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
209 All sorts of other stuff.
211 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
213 Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
214 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
217 Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
219 Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
220 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
221 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
223 Added Kerberos support to papd.
225 atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
228 Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
229 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
230 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
231 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
234 atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
235 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
236 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
237 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
238 the owner doesn't have write permission.
240 Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
241 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
244 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
247 Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
248 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
249 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
251 Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
252 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
254 !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
255 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
256 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
257 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
258 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
261 Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
263 Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
264 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
265 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
267 afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
268 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
271 Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
272 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
273 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
275 Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
276 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
279 Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
280 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
281 on the Mac gray-ed out.
283 Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
284 which improves permission inheritance.
286 Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
287 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
288 users aren't interested in.
290 Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
291 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
293 Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
296 Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
297 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
298 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
299 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
301 Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
302 ever worked right on little endian machines!
304 Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
305 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
307 Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
308 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
311 Changes from the 1.3 release:
313 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
314 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
315 (corrupted) database.
317 Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
318 when copying to afpd.
320 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
321 contain the written icon.
323 Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
324 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
325 machine running afpd.
327 Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
328 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
330 Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
331 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
332 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
333 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
335 Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
337 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
339 atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
340 from previous version will not work!
342 afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
343 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
344 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
345 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
347 afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
350 There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
352 Changes from the 1.2 release:
354 The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
355 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
356 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
358 The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
359 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
360 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
361 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
363 The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
365 aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
367 nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
368 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
369 environment variable.
371 nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
373 afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
374 silently denying service.
376 A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
377 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
379 Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
380 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
382 atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
385 atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
386 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
387 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
389 pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
390 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
391 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
392 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
393 card for HP LJIIISIs.
395 pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
398 A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
399 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
401 A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
403 atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
404 hasn't recieved anything yet.
406 atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
407 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
408 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
410 Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
413 The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
415 The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
417 The README files for various machine have been updated
