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

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