This call was replaced by sprintf() and prior bounds checking. + +Changes from the 1.4b1 release: + + Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd. + + Made ~ the default volume in afpd. + + Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd, + papd, and atalkd. + + Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime(). + + Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so + printers. + + Fixed papd's handling of piped printers. + + Fixed papd's handling of bad job names. + + Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port. + + Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams + file corruption. + + Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom. + + Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module. + + Moved all the config files to .../config. + +Changes from the 1.3.3 release: + + Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support. + See COPYRIGHT. + + Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian + Elischer. + + All sorts of other stuff. + +Changes from the 1.3.1 release: + + Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs. + !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man + page for where. + + Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux. + + Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better. + Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the + configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME. + + Added Kerberos support to papd. + + atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart + it, but it's closer. + + Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to + support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open + sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with + the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on + each interface. + + atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration + file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new + configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is + no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if + the owner doesn't have write permission. + + Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the + "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more + straight-forward. + + Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations + on ultrix machines. + + Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other + applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in + MacOS, but we can't fix that. + + Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file + writes to not propogate between AFS clients. + + !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are + AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system + exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the + user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate + which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system" + wins. + + Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works. + + Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes + precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type + of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley . + + afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also + uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions + for AFS directories. + + Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix + now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix + mtime is now reported instead of ctime. + + Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client + Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd + for AFS easier. + + Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting + user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog + on the Mac gray-ed out. + + Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library + which improves permission inheritance. + + Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report + errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that + users aren't interested in. + + Added information to psf's man page to better explain the + interaction between psf, pap, and lpd. + + Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in + /etc/printcap. + + Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on + the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified + pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap, + including moving it from section 8 to section 1. + + Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has + ever worked right on little endian machines! + + Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from + the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on. + + Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes + won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your + machine. + +Changes from the 1.3 release: + + Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both + mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old + (corrupted) database. + + Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted + when copying to afpd. + + Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to + contain the written icon. + + Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker + could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a + machine running afpd. + + Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the + malloc()/free() database to be corrupted. + + Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the + first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than + 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will + eventually get done, when N drops by one. + + Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd. + +Changes from the 1.2.1 release: + + atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf + from previous version will not work! + + afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration + for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related + byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords + were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu). + + afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to + metcalf@mit.edu). + + There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes. + +Changes from the 1.2 release: + + The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV) + instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos + greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2. + + The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under + ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the + patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites + -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk. + + The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below). + + aecho now takes machine names on the command line. + + nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of + responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP + environment variable. + + nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port. + + afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of + silently denying service. + + A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory + children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed. + + Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to + ultrix to be skipped have been fixed. + + atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone + it doesn't know. + + atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request + from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently + can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.) + + pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP + DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet + PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with + certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk + card for HP LJIIISIs. + + pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request, + only the first. + + A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when + printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed. + + A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed. + + atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it + hasn't recieved anything yet. + + atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal + format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it + checks that the separator character is a '.'. + + Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been + added. + + The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct. + + The man pages for changed commands have been updated. + + The README files for various machine have been updated + appropriately.
