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

49 * UPD: Removed --with-catsearch option from configure and enable FPCatSearch
51 * UPD: The dbpath argument does now support variable substitution.

60 * NEW: Long file name mangling support.
61 * NEW: Improved log file support.
62 * NEW: Server-side find capability ("FPCatSearch")
63 * NEW: Concurrent datastore (CDB) is now the default CNID datastore. This

65 * NEW: Variable substitution support has been added for the dbpath AppleVolume
67 * UPD: CNID DID handling is now enabled by default.
68 * FIX: Various bug and build fixes as well as code cleanups.

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