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

34 * UPD: Removed --with-catsearch option from configure and enable FPCatSearch
36 * UPD: The dbpath argument does now support variable substitution.
37 * FIX: Build fix for non-GNU-C compilers in libatalk/util/logger.c.
38 * FIX: Two directories with the same name but different case confused the
40 * FIX: The ROOT_PARENT directory could get invalidated.
45 * NEW: Long file name mangling support.
46 * NEW: Improved log file support.
47 * NEW: Server-side find capability ("FPCatSearch")
48 * NEW: Concurrent datastore (CDB) is now the default CNID datastore. This
49 should be heavily tested in a multiuser environment.
50 * NEW: Variable substitution support has been added for the dbpath AppleVolume
52 * UPD: CNID DID handling is now enabled by default.
53 * FIX: Various bug and build fixes as well as code cleanups.
58 * NEW: Allow afpd debugging to be enabled by sending the afpd process
60 * NEW: Allow SLP to be disabled per afpd process by adding a new -noslp flag
62 * FIX: Use server name (if not NULL) for the SLP URL.
63 * FIX: papd: buffer overflow during config file read (Olaf Hering)
68 * FIX: File open read only and then read write (aka pb with Illustrator).
69 * FIX: Problems with unexpected EOF when reading files on a ddp connection
70 Photoshop, old finder.
71 * FIX: --with-nls-dir option does now work
76 * UPD: Extend the --disable-shell-check functionality to ignore users
77 with _no_ shell. Also, send a log message if a user is refused login
78 based on the fact that they have no shell.
79 * UPD: Autoconf updates.
80 * UPD: Tru64 afpd authentication updates.
81 * UPD: As always: lots of minor code cleanups.
82 * FIX: Problems with Photoshop trying to open image files has been
84 * FIX: Preserve special permission bits when creating or modifying
86 * FIX: afp_deleteid() now deletes the specified file and not the parent
88 * FIX: papd does now announce that it supports binary data to its clients.
89 * FIX: NetBSD ELF support.
90 * FIX: acleandir.rc is now installed in the bin directory.
91 * FIX: megatron does now compile even if compiled with -DDEBUG.
92 * FIX: Clean up some syslog messages.
97 * NEW: NetBSD support contributed by David Rankin and NetBSD contributors.
98 This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
99 * NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
100 the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
101 this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
102 * UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
103 * UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
104 out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
105 * UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
106 issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
107 fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
108 * UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
109 code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
110 order to avoid database corruption!
111 * FIX: The file AppleVolumes.system contained wrong line breaks so that
112 not all file types were properly recognized.
113 * FIX: AFS compilation would fail due to a misnamed variable.
114 * FIX: SLP configure check was wrong so SLP did not compile.
115 * FIX: Fix the way quotas are handled under certain situations.
116 * FIX: Do not enable debugging code if debugging option is not set.
117 * FIX: Some problems with wrongly assigned DIDs were fixed.
118 * FIX: Various bug fixes and code cleanups.
123 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
124 verify the consistency of the CNID database.
125 * NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
127 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
128 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
129 * FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
130 * FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
132 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
133 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
134 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
135 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
140 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
141 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
142 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
143 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
148 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
149 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
150 generated during package build.
151 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
152 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
153 and prior bounds checking.
155 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
157 Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
159 Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
161 Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
164 Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
166 Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
169 Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
171 Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
173 Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
175 Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
178 Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
180 Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
182 Moved all the config files to .../config.
184 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
186 Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
189 Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
192 All sorts of other stuff.
194 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
196 Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
197 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
200 Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
202 Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
203 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
204 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
206 Added Kerberos support to papd.
208 atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
211 Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
212 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
213 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
214 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
217 atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
218 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
219 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
220 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
221 the owner doesn't have write permission.
223 Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
224 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
227 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
230 Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
231 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
232 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
234 Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
235 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
237 !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
238 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
239 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
240 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
241 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
244 Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
246 Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
247 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
248 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
250 afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
251 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
254 Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
255 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
256 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
258 Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
259 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
262 Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
263 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
264 on the Mac gray-ed out.
266 Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
267 which improves permission inheritance.
269 Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
270 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
271 users aren't interested in.
273 Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
274 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
276 Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
279 Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
280 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
281 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
282 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
284 Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
285 ever worked right on little endian machines!
287 Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
288 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
290 Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
291 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
294 Changes from the 1.3 release:
296 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
297 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
298 (corrupted) database.
300 Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
301 when copying to afpd.
303 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
304 contain the written icon.
306 Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
307 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
308 machine running afpd.
310 Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
311 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
313 Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
314 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
315 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
316 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
318 Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
320 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
322 atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
323 from previous version will not work!
325 afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
326 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
327 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
328 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
330 afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
333 There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
335 Changes from the 1.2 release:
337 The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
338 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
339 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
341 The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
342 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
343 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
344 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
346 The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
348 aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
350 nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
351 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
352 environment variable.
354 nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
356 afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
357 silently denying service.
359 A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
360 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
362 Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
363 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
365 atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
368 atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
369 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
370 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
372 pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
373 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
374 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
375 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
376 card for HP LJIIISIs.
378 pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
381 A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
382 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
384 A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
386 atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
387 hasn't recieved anything yet.
389 atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
390 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
391 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
393 Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
396 The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
398 The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
400 The README files for various machine have been updated
