83 * NEW: Improved log file support.
84 * NEW: Server-side find capability ("FPCatSearch")
85 * NEW: Concurrent datastore (CDB) is now the default CNID datastore. This

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