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

56 * NEW: Long file name mangling support.
57 * NEW: Improved log file support.
58 * NEW: Server-side find capability ("FPCatSearch")
59 * NEW: Concurrent datastore (CDB) is now the default CNID datastore. This

91 * UPD: Tru64 afpd authentication updates.
92 * UPD: As always: lots of minor code cleanups.
93 * FIX: Problems with Photoshop trying to open image files has been
95 * FIX: Preserve special permission bits when creating or modifying
97 * FIX: afp_deleteid() now deletes the specified file and not the parent
99 * FIX: papd does now announce that it supports binary data to its clients.
100 * FIX: NetBSD ELF support.
101 * FIX: acleandir.rc is now installed in the bin directory.
102 * FIX: megatron does now compile even if compiled with -DDEBUG.
103 * FIX: Clean up some syslog messages.
108 * NEW: NetBSD support contributed by David Rankin and NetBSD contributors.
109 This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
110 * NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
111 the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
112 this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
113 * UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
114 * UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
115 out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
116 * UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
117 issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
118 fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
119 * UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
120 code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
121 order to avoid database corruption!
122 * FIX: The file AppleVolumes.system contained wrong line breaks so that
123 not all file types were properly recognized.
124 * FIX: AFS compilation would fail due to a misnamed variable.
125 * FIX: SLP configure check was wrong so SLP did not compile.
126 * FIX: Fix the way quotas are handled under certain situations.
127 * FIX: Do not enable debugging code if debugging option is not set.
128 * FIX: Some problems with wrongly assigned DIDs were fixed.
129 * FIX: Various bug fixes and code cleanups.
134 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
135 verify the consistency of the CNID database.
136 * NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
138 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
139 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
140 * FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
141 * FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
143 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
144 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
145 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
146 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
151 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
152 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
153 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
154 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
159 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
160 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
161 generated during package build.
162 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
163 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
164 and prior bounds checking.
166 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
168 Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
170 Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
172 Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
175 Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
177 Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
180 Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
182 Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
184 Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
186 Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
189 Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
191 Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
193 Moved all the config files to .../config.
195 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
197 Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
200 Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
203 All sorts of other stuff.
205 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
207 Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
208 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
211 Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
213 Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
214 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
215 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
217 Added Kerberos support to papd.
219 atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
222 Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
223 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
224 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
225 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
228 atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
229 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
230 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
231 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
232 the owner doesn't have write permission.
234 Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
235 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
238 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
241 Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
242 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
243 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
245 Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
246 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
248 !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
249 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
250 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
251 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
252 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
255 Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
257 Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
258 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
259 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
261 afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
262 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
265 Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
266 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
267 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
269 Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
270 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
273 Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
274 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
275 on the Mac gray-ed out.
277 Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
278 which improves permission inheritance.
280 Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
281 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
282 users aren't interested in.
284 Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
285 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
287 Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
290 Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
291 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
292 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
293 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
295 Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
296 ever worked right on little endian machines!
298 Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
299 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
301 Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
302 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
305 Changes from the 1.3 release:
307 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
308 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
309 (corrupted) database.
311 Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
312 when copying to afpd.
314 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
315 contain the written icon.
317 Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
318 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
319 machine running afpd.
321 Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
322 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
324 Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
325 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
326 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
327 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
329 Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
331 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
333 atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
334 from previous version will not work!
336 afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
337 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
338 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
339 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
341 afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
344 There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
346 Changes from the 1.2 release:
348 The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
349 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
350 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
352 The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
353 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
354 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
355 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
357 The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
359 aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
361 nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
362 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
363 environment variable.
365 nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
367 afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
368 silently denying service.
370 A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
371 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
373 Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
374 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
376 atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
379 atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
380 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
381 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
383 pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
384 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
385 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
386 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
387 card for HP LJIIISIs.
389 pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
392 A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
393 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
395 A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
397 atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
398 hasn't recieved anything yet.
400 atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
401 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
402 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
404 Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
407 The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
409 The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
411 The README files for various machine have been updated
