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

531 * UPD: CNID DID handling is now enabled by default.
532 * FIX: Various bug and build fixes as well as code cleanups.
537 * NEW: Allow afpd debugging to be enabled by sending the afpd process
539 * NEW: Allow SLP to be disabled per afpd process by adding a new -noslp flag
541 * FIX: Use server name (if not NULL) for the SLP URL.
542 * FIX: papd: buffer overflow during config file read (Olaf Hering)
547 * FIX: File open read only and then read write (aka pb with Illustrator).
548 * FIX: Problems with unexpected EOF when reading files on a ddp connection
549 Photoshop, old finder.
550 * FIX: --with-nls-dir option does now work
555 * UPD: Extend the --disable-shell-check functionality to ignore users
556 with _no_ shell. Also, send a log message if a user is refused login
557 based on the fact that they have no shell.
558 * UPD: Autoconf updates.
559 * UPD: Tru64 afpd authentication updates.
560 * UPD: As always: lots of minor code cleanups.
561 * FIX: Problems with Photoshop trying to open image files has been
563 * FIX: Preserve special permission bits when creating or modifying
565 * FIX: afp_deleteid() now deletes the specified file and not the parent
567 * FIX: papd does now announce that it supports binary data to its clients.
568 * FIX: NetBSD ELF support.
569 * FIX: acleandir.rc is now installed in the bin directory.
570 * FIX: megatron does now compile even if compiled with -DDEBUG.
571 * FIX: Clean up some syslog messages.
576 * NEW: NetBSD support contributed by David Rankin and NetBSD contributors.
577 This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
578 * NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
579 the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
580 this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
581 * UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
582 * UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
583 out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
584 * UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
585 issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
586 fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
587 * UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
588 code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
589 order to avoid database corruption!
590 * FIX: The file AppleVolumes.system contained wrong line breaks so that
591 not all file types were properly recognized.
592 * FIX: AFS compilation would fail due to a misnamed variable.
593 * FIX: SLP configure check was wrong so SLP did not compile.
594 * FIX: Fix the way quotas are handled under certain situations.
595 * FIX: Do not enable debugging code if debugging option is not set.
596 * FIX: Some problems with wrongly assigned DIDs were fixed.
597 * FIX: Various bug fixes and code cleanups.
602 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
603 verify the consistency of the CNID database.
604 * NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
606 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
607 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
608 * FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
609 * FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
611 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
612 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
613 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
614 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
619 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
620 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
621 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
622 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
627 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
628 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
629 generated during package build.
630 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
631 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
632 and prior bounds checking.
634 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
635 ===============================
637 * Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
639 * Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
641 * Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
644 * Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
646 * Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
649 * Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
651 * Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
653 * Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
655 * Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
658 * Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
660 * Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
662 * Moved all the config files to .../config.
664 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
665 ===============================
667 * Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
670 * Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
673 * All sorts of other stuff.
675 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
676 ===============================
678 * Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
679 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
682 * Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
684 * Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
685 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
686 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
688 * Added Kerberos support to papd.
690 * atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
693 * Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
694 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
695 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
696 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
699 * atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
700 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
701 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
702 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
703 the owner doesn't have write permission.
705 * Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
706 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
709 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
712 * Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
713 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
714 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
716 * Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
717 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
719 * !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
720 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
721 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
722 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
723 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
726 * Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
728 * Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
729 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
730 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
732 * afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
733 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
736 * Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
737 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
738 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
740 * Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
741 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
744 * Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
745 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
746 on the Mac gray-ed out.
748 * Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
749 which improves permission inheritance.
751 * Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
752 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
753 users aren't interested in.
755 * Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
756 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
758 * Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
761 * Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
762 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
763 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
764 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
766 * Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
767 ever worked right on little endian machines!
769 * Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
770 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
772 * Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
773 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
776 Changes from the 1.3 release:
777 =============================
779 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
780 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
781 (corrupted) database.
783 * Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
784 when copying to afpd.
786 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
787 contain the written icon.
789 * Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
790 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
791 machine running afpd.
793 * Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
794 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
796 * Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
797 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
798 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
799 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
801 * Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
803 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
804 ===============================
806 * atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
807 from previous version will not work!
809 * afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
810 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
811 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
812 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
814 * afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
817 * There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
819 Changes from the 1.2 release:
820 =============================
822 * The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
823 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
824 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
826 * The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
827 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
828 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
829 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
831 * The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
833 * aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
835 * nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
836 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
837 environment variable.
839 * nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
841 * afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
842 silently denying service.
844 * A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
845 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
847 * Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
848 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
850 * atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
853 * atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
854 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
855 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
857 * pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
858 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
859 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
860 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
861 card for HP LJIIISIs.
863 * pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
866 * A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
867 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
869 * A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
871 * atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
872 hasn't recieved anything yet.
874 * atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
875 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
876 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
878 * Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
881 * The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
883 * The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
885 * The README files for various machine have been updated
