3 * UPD: afpd: Increase default DSI server quantum to 1 MB
4 * UPD: bundled libevent2 is now static
5 * NEW: --with-lockfile=PATH configure option for specifying an

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

1105 * Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
1106 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
1107 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
1109 * Added Kerberos support to papd.
1111 * atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
1112 it, but it's closer.
1114 * Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
1115 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
1116 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
1117 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
1120 * atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
1121 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
1122 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
1123 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
1124 the owner doesn't have write permission.
1126 * Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
1127 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
1130 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
1133 * Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
1134 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
1135 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
1137 * Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
1138 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
1140 * !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
1141 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
1142 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
1143 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
1144 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
1147 * Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
1149 * Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
1150 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
1151 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
1153 * afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
1154 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
1155 for AFS directories.
1157 * Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
1158 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
1159 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
1161 * Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
1162 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
1165 * Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
1166 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
1167 on the Mac gray-ed out.
1169 * Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
1170 which improves permission inheritance.
1172 * Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
1173 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
1174 users aren't interested in.
1176 * Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
1177 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
1179 * Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
1182 * Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
1183 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
1184 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
1185 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
1187 * Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
1188 ever worked right on little endian machines!
1190 * Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
1191 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
1193 * Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
1194 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
1197 Changes from the 1.3 release:
1198 =============================
1200 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
1201 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
1202 (corrupted) database.
1204 * Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
1205 when copying to afpd.
1207 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
1208 contain the written icon.
1210 * Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
1211 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
1212 machine running afpd.
1214 * Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
1215 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
1217 * Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
1218 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
1219 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
1220 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
1222 * Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
1224 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
1225 ===============================
1227 * atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
1228 from previous version will not work!
1230 * afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
1231 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
1232 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
1233 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
1235 * afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
1238 * There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
1240 Changes from the 1.2 release:
1241 =============================
1243 * The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
1244 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
1245 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
1247 * The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
1248 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
1249 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
1250 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
1252 * The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
1254 * aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
1256 * nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
1257 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
1258 environment variable.
1260 * nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
1262 * afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
1263 silently denying service.
1265 * A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
1266 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
1268 * Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
1269 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
1271 * atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
1274 * atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
1275 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
1276 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
1278 * pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
1279 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
1280 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
1281 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
1282 card for HP LJIIISIs.
1284 * pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
1287 * A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
1288 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
1290 * A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
1292 * atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
1293 hasn't recieved anything yet.
1295 * atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
1296 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
1297 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
1299 * Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
1302 * The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
1304 * The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
1306 * The README files for various machine have been updated
