721 if -fqdn is specified register with FQDN. Added extended character
722 support for SLP, non ASCII characters are escaped Added ZONE to registration.

736 Changes in 2.0-alpha1
737 =====================
739 * NEW: afpd: We now support AFP 3.x, which features long filenames and
741 * NEW: CNID handling completely reworked. We now use per Volume configurable
743 * NEW: Two new daemons, cnid_metad and cnid_dbd to implement the dbd CNID backend.
744 Using Berkeley DB transactions with the CNID database should be safe now.
745 * NEW: The on disk format of the CNID database has changed. We now support 8 byte
746 device and inode numbers and an additinal type field that should make
747 detection of file/directory changes outside of afpd more robust.
748 Changed from HASH to BTREE access which speeds things up in certain cases
749 and reduces database file size.
750 * NEW: Long file name mangling is now implemented using the CNID ID, so no database is
751 required to map names to mangled names. This is the same method Mac OS X uses.
752 * NEW: New format (version 2) for Metadata in AppleDouble files. We record device and
753 inode of the underlying file as well as the CNID. This can be used for recovery
754 and speeds up access to the CNID.
755 * NEW: The old NLS codepage system has been removed. It was replaced by an iconv
756 based conversion system, which provides much more flexibility.
757 * NEW: You can safely use extended characters in volume names and for SIGUSR2 messaging.
758 * NEW: The default volume encoding is UTF-8.
759 * NEW: All documentation is now generated using DocBook. New or completely reworked
760 sections about installing, setting up and upgrading Netatalk replace various
761 README files in the doc directory.
762 * FIX: Protect afpd better against unexpected signals during updates of the CNID
763 database with the cdb backend. This makes database corruption less likely.
764 * FIX: All manpages have been reviewed and should now be up to date.
765 * FIX: Tons of bug fixes since 1.6.4. Please consults the CVS change log for details.
770 * NEW: afpd: Using the mswindows option now implicitly specifies usedots.
772 * UPD: afpd.8: Updated the option documentation.

896 * FIX: megatron does now compile even if compiled with -DDEBUG.
897 * FIX: Clean up some syslog messages.
902 * NEW: NetBSD support contributed by David Rankin and NetBSD contributors.
903 This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
904 * NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
905 the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
906 this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
907 * UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
908 * UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
909 out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
910 * UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
911 issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
912 fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
913 * UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
914 code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
915 order to avoid database corruption!
916 * FIX: The file AppleVolumes.system contained wrong line breaks so that
917 not all file types were properly recognized.
918 * FIX: AFS compilation would fail due to a misnamed variable.

928 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
929 verify the consistency of the CNID database.
930 * NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
932 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
933 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.

938 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
939 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
940 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
945 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
946 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
947 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
948 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
953 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
954 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
955 generated during package build.
956 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
957 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
958 and prior bounds checking.
960 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
961 ===============================
963 * Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
965 * Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
967 * Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
970 * Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
972 * Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
975 * Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
977 * Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
979 * Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
981 * Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
984 * Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
986 * Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
988 * Moved all the config files to .../config.
990 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
991 ===============================
993 * Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
996 * Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
999 * All sorts of other stuff.
1001 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
1002 ===============================
1004 * Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
1005 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
1008 * Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
1010 * Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
1011 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
1012 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
1014 * Added Kerberos support to papd.
1016 * atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
1017 it, but it's closer.
1019 * Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
1020 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
1021 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
1022 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
1025 * atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
1026 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
1027 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
1028 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
1029 the owner doesn't have write permission.
1031 * Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
1032 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
1035 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
1038 * Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
1039 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
1040 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
1042 * Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
1043 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
1045 * !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
1046 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
1047 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
1048 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
1049 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
1052 * Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
1054 * Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
1055 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
1056 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
1058 * afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
1059 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
1060 for AFS directories.
1062 * Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
1063 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
1064 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
1066 * Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
1067 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
1070 * Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
1071 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
1072 on the Mac gray-ed out.
1074 * Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
1075 which improves permission inheritance.
1077 * Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
1078 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
1079 users aren't interested in.
1081 * Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
1082 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
1084 * Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
1087 * Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
1088 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
1089 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
1090 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
1092 * Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
1093 ever worked right on little endian machines!
1095 * Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
1096 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
1098 * Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
1099 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
1102 Changes from the 1.3 release:
1103 =============================
1105 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
1106 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
1107 (corrupted) database.
1109 * Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
1110 when copying to afpd.
1112 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
1113 contain the written icon.
1115 * Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
1116 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
1117 machine running afpd.
1119 * Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
1120 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
1122 * Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
1123 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
1124 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
1125 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
1127 * Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
1129 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
1130 ===============================
1132 * atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
1133 from previous version will not work!
1135 * afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
1136 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
1137 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
1138 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
1140 * afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
1143 * There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
1145 Changes from the 1.2 release:
1146 =============================
1148 * The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
1149 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
1150 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
1152 * The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
1153 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
1154 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
1155 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
1157 * The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
1159 * aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
1161 * nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
1162 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
1163 environment variable.
1165 * nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
1167 * afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
1168 silently denying service.
1170 * A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
1171 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
1173 * Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
1174 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
1176 * atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
1179 * atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
1180 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
1181 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
1183 * pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
1184 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
1185 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
1186 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
1187 card for HP LJIIISIs.
1189 * pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
1192 * A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
1193 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
1195 * A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
1197 * atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
1198 hasn't recieved anything yet.
1200 * atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
1201 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
1202 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
1204 * Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
1207 * The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
1209 * The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
1211 * The README files for various machine have been updated
