227 afp.conf wasn't terminated by a newline. Fixes bug #476.
228 * NEW: Add a new volumes option 'follow symlinks'. The default setting is
229 false, symlinks are not followed on the server. This is the same
230 behaviour as OS X's AFP server.
231 Setting the option to true causes afpd to follow symlinks on the
232 server. symlinks may point outside of the AFP volume, currently
233 afpd doesn't do any checks for "wide symlinks".
234 * FIX: Automatic AppleDouble conversion to EAs failing for directories.
236 * FIX: dbd failed to convert appledouble files of symlinks.

370 and -krb5service are not set, from Jamie Gilbertson
371 * UPD: afpd: Changed behaviour for TimeMachine volumes in case there's a problem
372 talking to the CNID daemons. Previously the volume was flagged read-only
373 and an AFP message was sent to the client. As this might result in
374 TimeMachine assuming the backup sparse bundle is damaged, we now just
375 switch the CNID database to an in-memory tdb without the additional stuff.

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

1006 * NEW: afpd: Make sure getstatus doesn't return loopback address as server IP.
1007 * NEW: afpd: Specify USEDOTS with MSWINDOWS implicitely.
1008 * NEW: afpd: SRVLOC register with IP address instead of hostname by default,
1009 if -fqdn is specified register with FQDN. Added extended character
1010 support for SLP, non ASCII characters are escaped Added ZONE to registration.
1011 * NEW: atalkd: Make atalkd set interfaces to ALLMULTI on linux by default.
1012 * NEW: cnid_metad: Use DB_PRIVATE attribute for dbd backend without transaction.
1013 * FIX: afpd: Partial workaround for an OSX client deadlock.

1025 =====================
1027 * NEW: afpd: We now support AFP 3.x, which features long filenames and
1029 * NEW: CNID handling completely reworked. We now use per Volume configurable
1031 * NEW: Two new daemons, cnid_metad and cnid_dbd to implement the dbd CNID backend.
1032 Using Berkeley DB transactions with the CNID database should be safe now.
1033 * NEW: The on disk format of the CNID database has changed. We now support 8 byte
1034 device and inode numbers and an additinal type field that should make
1035 detection of file/directory changes outside of afpd more robust.
1036 Changed from HASH to BTREE access which speeds things up in certain cases
1037 and reduces database file size.
1038 * NEW: Long file name mangling is now implemented using the CNID ID, so no database is
1039 required to map names to mangled names. This is the same method Mac OS X uses.
1040 * NEW: New format (version 2) for Metadata in AppleDouble files. We record device and
1041 inode of the underlying file as well as the CNID. This can be used for recovery
1042 and speeds up access to the CNID.
1043 * NEW: The old NLS codepage system has been removed. It was replaced by an iconv
1044 based conversion system, which provides much more flexibility.
1045 * NEW: You can safely use extended characters in volume names and for SIGUSR2 messaging.
1046 * NEW: The default volume encoding is UTF-8.
1047 * NEW: All documentation is now generated using DocBook. New or completely reworked
1048 sections about installing, setting up and upgrading Netatalk replace various
1049 README files in the doc directory.
1050 * FIX: Protect afpd better against unexpected signals during updates of the CNID
1051 database with the cdb backend. This makes database corruption less likely.
1052 * FIX: All manpages have been reviewed and should now be up to date.
1053 * FIX: Tons of bug fixes since 1.6.4. Please consults the CVS change log for details.
1058 * NEW: afpd: Using the mswindows option now implicitly specifies usedots.
1060 * UPD: afpd.8: Updated the option documentation.

1136 ====================
1138 * NEW: Long file name mangling support.
1139 * NEW: Improved log file support.
1140 * NEW: Server-side find capability ("FPCatSearch")
1141 * NEW: Concurrent datastore (CDB) is now the default CNID datastore. This
1142 should be heavily tested in a multiuser environment.
1143 * NEW: Variable substitution support has been added for the dbpath AppleVolume
1145 * UPD: CNID DID handling is now enabled by default.
1146 * FIX: Various bug and build fixes as well as code cleanups.
1151 * NEW: Allow afpd debugging to be enabled by sending the afpd process
1153 * NEW: Allow SLP to be disabled per afpd process by adding a new -noslp flag
1155 * FIX: Use server name (if not NULL) for the SLP URL.
1156 * FIX: papd: buffer overflow during config file read (Olaf Hering)
1161 * FIX: File open read only and then read write (aka pb with Illustrator).
1162 * FIX: Problems with unexpected EOF when reading files on a ddp connection
1163 Photoshop, old finder.
1164 * FIX: --with-nls-dir option does now work
1169 * UPD: Extend the --disable-shell-check functionality to ignore users
1170 with _no_ shell. Also, send a log message if a user is refused login
1171 based on the fact that they have no shell.
1172 * UPD: Autoconf updates.
1173 * UPD: Tru64 afpd authentication updates.
1174 * UPD: As always: lots of minor code cleanups.
1175 * FIX: Problems with Photoshop trying to open image files has been
1177 * FIX: Preserve special permission bits when creating or modifying
1179 * FIX: afp_deleteid() now deletes the specified file and not the parent
1181 * FIX: papd does now announce that it supports binary data to its clients.
1182 * FIX: NetBSD ELF support.
1183 * FIX: acleandir.rc is now installed in the bin directory.
1184 * FIX: megatron does now compile even if compiled with -DDEBUG.
1185 * FIX: Clean up some syslog messages.
1190 * NEW: NetBSD support contributed by David Rankin and NetBSD contributors.
1191 This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
1192 * NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
1193 the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
1194 this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
1195 * UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
1196 * UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
1197 out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
1198 * UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
1199 issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
1200 fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
1201 * UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
1202 code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
1203 order to avoid database corruption!
1204 * FIX: The file AppleVolumes.system contained wrong line breaks so that
1205 not all file types were properly recognized.
1206 * FIX: AFS compilation would fail due to a misnamed variable.
1207 * FIX: SLP configure check was wrong so SLP did not compile.
1208 * FIX: Fix the way quotas are handled under certain situations.
1209 * FIX: Do not enable debugging code if debugging option is not set.
1210 * FIX: Some problems with wrongly assigned DIDs were fixed.
1211 * FIX: Various bug fixes and code cleanups.
1216 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
1217 verify the consistency of the CNID database.
1218 * NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
1220 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
1221 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
1222 * FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
1223 * FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
1225 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
1226 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
1227 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
1228 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
1233 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
1234 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
1235 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
1236 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
1241 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
1242 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
1243 generated during package build.
1244 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
1245 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
1246 and prior bounds checking.
1248 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
1249 ===============================
1251 * Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
1253 * Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
1255 * Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
1258 * Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
1260 * Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
1263 * Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
1265 * Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
1267 * Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
1269 * Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
1272 * Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
1274 * Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
1276 * Moved all the config files to .../config.
1278 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
1279 ===============================
1281 * Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
1284 * Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
1287 * All sorts of other stuff.
1289 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
1290 ===============================
1292 * Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
1293 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
1296 * Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
1298 * Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
1299 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
1300 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
1302 * Added Kerberos support to papd.
1304 * atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
1305 it, but it's closer.
1307 * Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
1308 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
1309 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
1310 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
1313 * atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
1314 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
1315 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
1316 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
1317 the owner doesn't have write permission.
1319 * Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
1320 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
1323 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
1326 * Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
1327 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
1328 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
1330 * Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
1331 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
1333 * !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
1334 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
1335 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
1336 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
1337 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
1340 * Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
1342 * Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
1343 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
1344 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
1346 * afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
1347 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
1348 for AFS directories.
1350 * Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
1351 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
1352 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
1354 * Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
1355 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
1358 * Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
1359 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
1360 on the Mac gray-ed out.
1362 * Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
1363 which improves permission inheritance.
1365 * Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
1366 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
1367 users aren't interested in.
1369 * Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
1370 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
1372 * Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
1375 * Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
1376 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
1377 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
1378 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
1380 * Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
1381 ever worked right on little endian machines!
1383 * Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
1384 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
1386 * Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
1387 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
1390 Changes from the 1.3 release:
1391 =============================
1393 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
1394 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
1395 (corrupted) database.
1397 * Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
1398 when copying to afpd.
1400 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
1401 contain the written icon.
1403 * Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
1404 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
1405 machine running afpd.
1407 * Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
1408 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
1410 * Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
1411 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
1412 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
1413 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
1415 * Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
1417 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
1418 ===============================
1420 * atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
1421 from previous version will not work!
1423 * afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
1424 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
1425 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
1426 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
1428 * afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
1431 * There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
1433 Changes from the 1.2 release:
1434 =============================
1436 * The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
1437 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
1438 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
1440 * The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
1441 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
1442 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
1443 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
1445 * The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
1447 * aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
1449 * nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
1450 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
1451 environment variable.
1453 * nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
1455 * afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
1456 silently denying service.
1458 * A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
1459 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
1461 * Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
1462 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
1464 * atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
1467 * atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
1468 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
1469 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
1471 * pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
1472 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
1473 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
1474 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
1475 card for HP LJIIISIs.
1477 * pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
1480 * A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
1481 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
1483 * A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
1485 * atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
1486 hasn't recieved anything yet.
1488 * atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
1489 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
1490 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
1492 * Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
1495 * The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
1497 * The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
1499 * The README files for various machine have been updated
