3 * UPD: afpd: Increase default DSI server quantum to 1 MB
4 * UPD: bundled libevent2 is now static

27 * FIX: Install working PAM config on Solaris 11. Fixes bug #481.
28 * FIX: Fix a race condition between dbd and the cnid_dbd daemon
29 which could result in users being disconnected from volumes
30 when dbd was scanning their volumes. Fixes bug #477.
31 * FIX: Netatalk didn't start when the last line of the config file
32 afp.conf wasn't terminated by a newline. Fixes bug #476.
33 * NEW: Add a new volumes option 'follow symlinks'. The default setting is
34 false, symlinks are not followed on the server. This is the same
35 behaviour as OS X's AFP server.
36 Setting the option to true causes afpd to follow symlinks on the
37 server. symlinks may point outside of the AFP volume, currently
38 afpd doesn't do any checks for "wide symlinks".
39 * FIX: Automatic AppleDouble conversion to EAs failing for directories.
41 * FIX: dbd failed to convert appledouble files of symlinks.
46 * NEW: afpd: Optional "ldap uuid encoding = string | ms-guid" parameter to

64 --with-libevent-header|lib.
65 * UPD: gentoo initscript: merge from portage netatalk.init,v 1.1
66 * REM: Remove --with-smbsharemodes configure option, it was an
67 empty stub not yet implemented
72 * UPD: afpd: force read only mode if cnid scheme is last

74 * FIX: CNID path for user homes
79 * UPD: Solaris and friends: Replace initscript with SMF manifest
80 * FIX: Solaris and friends: resource fork handling
85 * UPD: afpd: Performance tuning of read/write AFP operations. New option
86 "afp read locks" (default: no) which disables that the server
87 applies UNIX byte range locks to regions of files in AFP read and
89 * UPD: apple_dump: Extended Attributes AppleDouble support.
90 (*BSD is not supported yet)
95 * NEW: afpd: Per volume "login message", NetAFP bug ID #18
96 * NEW: afpd: Cross-platform locking (share modes) on Solaris and derivates
97 with Solaris CIFS/SMB server. Uses new Solaris fcntl F_SHARE share
98 reservation locking primitives. Enabled by default, set global
99 "solaris share reservations" option to false to disable it.
100 * NEW: ad: ad set subcommand for changing Mac metadata on the server
101 * UPD: unix charset is UTF8 by default.
102 vol charset is same value as unix charset by default.
103 * UPD: .AppleDesktop/ are stored in $localstatedir/netatalk/CNID
104 (default: /var/netatalk/CNID), databases found in AFP volumes are
106 * FIX: afpd: Server info packet was malformed resulting in broken
107 server names being displayed on clients
108 * FIX: afpd: Byte order detection. Fixes an error where Netatalk on
109 OpenIndiana returned wrong volume size information.
111 Changes in 3.0 alpha2
112 =====================
114 * UPD: afpd: Store '.' as is and '/' as ':' on the server, don't
115 CAP hexencode as "2e" and "2f" respectively
116 * UPD: afdp: Automatic name conversion, renaming files and directories
117 containing CAP sequences to their not enscaped forms
118 * UPD: afpd: Correct handling of user homes and users without homes
119 * UPD: afpd: Perform complete automatic adouble:v2 to adouble:ea conversion

122 * UPD: Add graceful option to RedHat init script
123 * UPD: Add --disable-bundled-libevent configure options When set to yes,

174 * UPD: afpd: Use GSS_C_NO_NAME as server principal when Kerberos options -fqdn
175 and -krb5service are not set, from Jamie Gilbertson
176 * UPD: afpd: Changed behaviour for TimeMachine volumes in case there's a problem
177 talking to the CNID daemons. Previously the volume was flagged read-only
178 and an AFP message was sent to the client. As this might result in
179 TimeMachine assuming the backup sparse bundle is damaged, we now just
180 switch the CNID database to an in-memory tdb without the additional stuff.
181 * FIX: afpd: sendfile() on FreeBSD was broken, courtesy of Denis Ahrens

196 whenever a normal user login fails, afpd tries to authenticate as
197 the specified adminauthuser. If this succeeds, a normal session is
198 created for the original connecting user. Said differently: if you
199 know the password of adminauthuser, you can authenticate as any other
201 * NEW: configure option "--enable-suse-systemd" for openSUSE12.1 and later.
202 "--enable-redhat-systemd" and "--enable-suse-systemd" are same as

509 after 2.1 in case of BerkeleyDB library updates, Netatalk
510 will be able to upgrade the CNID databases.
511 * NEW: afpd: store and read CNIDs to/from AppleDouble files by default.
512 This is used as a cache and as a backup in case the database
513 is deleted or corrupted. It can be disabled with a new volume
514 option "nocnidcache".
515 * NEW: afpd: sending SIGINT to a child afpd process enables debug logging
516 to /tmp/afpd.PID.XXXXXX.

534 AppleVolumes.system. They're unmaintained, possibly wrong and
536 * FIX: rewritten logger
537 * FIX: afpd: UNIX permissions handling

539 * FIX: initscripts installation now correctly uses autoconf paths,
540 ie they're installed to --sysconfdir.
541 * FIX: UTF-8 volume name length
542 * FIX: atalkd: workaround for broken Linux 2.6 AT kernel module:
543 Linux 2.6 sends broadcast queries to the first available socket
544 which is in our case the last configured one. atalkd now tries to
546 Note: now a misconfigured or plugged router can broadcast a wrong route !
547 * REM: afpd: removed CNID backends "db3", "hash" and "mtab"

814 if -fqdn is specified register with FQDN. Added extended character

829 Changes in 2.0-alpha1
830 =====================
832 * NEW: afpd: We now support AFP 3.x, which features long filenames and
834 * NEW: CNID handling completely reworked. We now use per Volume configurable
836 * NEW: Two new daemons, cnid_metad and cnid_dbd to implement the dbd CNID backend.
837 Using Berkeley DB transactions with the CNID database should be safe now.
838 * NEW: The on disk format of the CNID database has changed. We now support 8 byte
839 device and inode numbers and an additinal type field that should make
840 detection of file/directory changes outside of afpd more robust.
841 Changed from HASH to BTREE access which speeds things up in certain cases
842 and reduces database file size.
843 * NEW: Long file name mangling is now implemented using the CNID ID, so no database is
844 required to map names to mangled names. This is the same method Mac OS X uses.
845 * NEW: New format (version 2) for Metadata in AppleDouble files. We record device and
846 inode of the underlying file as well as the CNID. This can be used for recovery
847 and speeds up access to the CNID.
848 * NEW: The old NLS codepage system has been removed. It was replaced by an iconv
849 based conversion system, which provides much more flexibility.
850 * NEW: You can safely use extended characters in volume names and for SIGUSR2 messaging.
851 * NEW: The default volume encoding is UTF-8.
852 * NEW: All documentation is now generated using DocBook. New or completely reworked
853 sections about installing, setting up and upgrading Netatalk replace various
854 README files in the doc directory.
855 * FIX: Protect afpd better against unexpected signals during updates of the CNID
856 database with the cdb backend. This makes database corruption less likely.
857 * FIX: All manpages have been reviewed and should now be up to date.
858 * FIX: Tons of bug fixes since 1.6.4. Please consults the CVS change log for details.
863 * NEW: afpd: Using the mswindows option now implicitly specifies usedots.

1104 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
1105 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
1107 * Added Kerberos support to papd.
1109 * atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
1110 it, but it's closer.
1112 * Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
1113 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
1114 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
1115 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
1118 * atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
1119 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
1120 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
1121 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
1122 the owner doesn't have write permission.
1124 * Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
1125 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
1128 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
1131 * Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
1132 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
1133 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
1135 * Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
1136 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
1138 * !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
1139 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
1140 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
1141 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
1142 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
1145 * Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
1147 * Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
1148 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
1149 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
1151 * afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
1152 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
1153 for AFS directories.
1155 * Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
1156 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
1157 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
1159 * Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
1160 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
1163 * Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
1164 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
1165 on the Mac gray-ed out.
1167 * Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
1168 which improves permission inheritance.
1170 * Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
1171 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
1172 users aren't interested in.
1174 * Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
1175 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
1177 * Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
1180 * Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
1181 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
1182 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
1183 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
1185 * Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
1186 ever worked right on little endian machines!
1188 * Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
1189 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
1191 * Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
1192 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
1195 Changes from the 1.3 release:
1196 =============================
1198 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
1199 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
1200 (corrupted) database.
1202 * Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
1203 when copying to afpd.
1205 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
1206 contain the written icon.
1208 * Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
1209 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
1210 machine running afpd.
1212 * Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
1213 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
1215 * Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
1216 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
1217 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
1218 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
1220 * Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
1222 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
1223 ===============================
1225 * atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
1226 from previous version will not work!
1228 * afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
1229 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
1230 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
1231 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
1233 * afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
1236 * There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
1238 Changes from the 1.2 release:
1239 =============================
1241 * The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
1242 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
1243 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
1245 * The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
1246 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
1247 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
1248 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
1250 * The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
1252 * aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
1254 * nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
1255 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
1256 environment variable.
1258 * nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
1260 * afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
1261 silently denying service.
1263 * A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
1264 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
1266 * Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
1267 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
1269 * atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
1272 * atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
1273 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
1274 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
1276 * pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
1277 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
1278 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
1279 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
1280 card for HP LJIIISIs.
1282 * pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
1285 * A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
1286 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
1288 * A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
1290 * atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
1291 hasn't recieved anything yet.
1293 * atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
1294 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
1295 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
1297 * Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
1300 * The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
1302 * The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
1304 * The README files for various machine have been updated
