184 Changes in 2.0-alpha1
185 =====================
187 * NEW: afpd: We now support AFP 3.x, which features long filenames and
189 * NEW: CNID handling completely reworked. We now use per Volume configurable
191 * NEW: Two new daemons, cnid_metad and cnid_dbd to implement the dbd CNID backend.
192 Using Berkeley DB transactions with the CNID database should be safe now.
193 * NEW: The on disk format of the CNID database has changed. We now support 8 byte
194 device and inode numbers and an additinal type field that should make
195 detection of file/directory changes outside of afpd more robust.
196 Changed from HASH to BTREE access which speeds things up in certain cases
197 and reduces database file size.
198 * NEW: Long file name mangling is now implemented using the CNID ID, so no database is
199 required to map names to mangled names. This is the same method Mac OS X uses.
200 * NEW: New format (version 2) for Metadata in AppleDouble files. We record device and
201 inode of the underlying file as well as the CNID. This can be used for recovery
202 and speeds up access to the CNID.
203 * NEW: The old NLS codepage system has been removed. It was replaced by an iconv
204 based conversion system, which provides much more flexibility.
205 * NEW: You can safely use extended characters in volume names and for SIGUSR2 messaging.
206 * NEW: The default volume encoding is UTF-8.
207 * NEW: All documentation is now generated using DocBook. New or completely reworked
208 sections about installing, setting up and upgrading Netatalk replace various
209 README files in the doc directory.
210 * FIX: Protect afpd better against unexpected signals during updates of the CNID
211 database with the cdb backend. This makes database corruption less likely.
212 * FIX: All manpages have been reviewed and should now be up to date.
213 * FIX: Tons of bug fixes since 1.6.4. Please consults the CVS change log for details.
218 * NEW: afpd: Using the mswindows option now implicitly specifies usedots.
220 * UPD: afpd.8: Updated the option documentation.

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

339 * FIX: afp_deleteid() now deletes the specified file and not the parent
341 * FIX: papd does now announce that it supports binary data to its clients.
342 * FIX: NetBSD ELF support.
343 * FIX: acleandir.rc is now installed in the bin directory.
344 * FIX: megatron does now compile even if compiled with -DDEBUG.
345 * FIX: Clean up some syslog messages.
350 * NEW: NetBSD support contributed by David Rankin and NetBSD contributors.
351 This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
352 * NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
353 the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
354 this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
355 * UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
356 * UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
357 out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
358 * UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
359 issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
360 fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
361 * UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
362 code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
363 order to avoid database corruption!
364 * FIX: The file AppleVolumes.system contained wrong line breaks so that
365 not all file types were properly recognized.
366 * FIX: AFS compilation would fail due to a misnamed variable.
367 * FIX: SLP configure check was wrong so SLP did not compile.
368 * FIX: Fix the way quotas are handled under certain situations.
369 * FIX: Do not enable debugging code if debugging option is not set.
370 * FIX: Some problems with wrongly assigned DIDs were fixed.
371 * FIX: Various bug fixes and code cleanups.
376 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
377 verify the consistency of the CNID database.
378 * NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
380 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
381 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
382 * FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
383 * FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
385 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
386 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
387 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
388 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
393 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
394 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
395 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
396 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
401 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
402 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
403 generated during package build.
404 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
405 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
406 and prior bounds checking.
408 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
409 ===============================
411 * Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
413 * Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
415 * Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
418 * Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
420 * Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
423 * Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
425 * Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
427 * Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
429 * Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
432 * Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
434 * Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
436 * Moved all the config files to .../config.
438 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
439 ===============================
441 * Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
444 * Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
447 * All sorts of other stuff.
449 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
450 ===============================
452 * Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
453 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
456 * Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
458 * Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
459 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
460 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
462 * Added Kerberos support to papd.
464 * atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
467 * Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
468 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
469 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
470 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
473 * atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
474 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
475 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
476 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
477 the owner doesn't have write permission.
479 * Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
480 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
483 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
486 * Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
487 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
488 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
490 * Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
491 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
493 * !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
494 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
495 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
496 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
497 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
500 * Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
502 * Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
503 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
504 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
506 * afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
507 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
510 * Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
511 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
512 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
514 * Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
515 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
518 * Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
519 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
520 on the Mac gray-ed out.
522 * Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
523 which improves permission inheritance.
525 * Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
526 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
527 users aren't interested in.
529 * Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
530 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
532 * Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
535 * Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
536 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
537 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
538 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
540 * Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
541 ever worked right on little endian machines!
543 * Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
544 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
546 * Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
547 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
550 Changes from the 1.3 release:
551 =============================
553 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
554 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
555 (corrupted) database.
557 * Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
558 when copying to afpd.
560 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
561 contain the written icon.
563 * Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
564 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
565 machine running afpd.
567 * Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
568 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
570 * Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
571 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
572 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
573 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
575 * Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
577 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
578 ===============================
580 * atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
581 from previous version will not work!
583 * afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
584 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
585 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
586 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
588 * afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
591 * There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
593 Changes from the 1.2 release:
594 =============================
596 * The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
597 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
598 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
600 * The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
601 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
602 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
603 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
605 * The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
607 * aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
609 * nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
610 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
611 environment variable.
613 * nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
615 * afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
616 silently denying service.
618 * A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
619 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
621 * Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
622 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
624 * atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
627 * atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
628 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
629 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
631 * pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
632 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
633 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
634 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
635 card for HP LJIIISIs.
637 * pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
640 * A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
641 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
643 * A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
645 * atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
646 hasn't recieved anything yet.
648 * atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
649 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
650 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
652 * Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
655 * The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
657 * The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
659 * The README files for various machine have been updated
