45 * FIX: CNID, folders' DID handling with concurrent access or symlinks.
46 (Fixes an endless loop in afpd.)
51 * FIX: pap looks at the STDOUT file descriptor to see if it's connected to

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

103 * UPD: Tru64 afpd authentication updates.
104 * UPD: As always: lots of minor code cleanups.
105 * FIX: Problems with Photoshop trying to open image files has been
107 * FIX: Preserve special permission bits when creating or modifying
109 * FIX: afp_deleteid() now deletes the specified file and not the parent
111 * FIX: papd does now announce that it supports binary data to its clients.
112 * FIX: NetBSD ELF support.
113 * FIX: acleandir.rc is now installed in the bin directory.
114 * FIX: megatron does now compile even if compiled with -DDEBUG.
115 * FIX: Clean up some syslog messages.
120 * NEW: NetBSD support contributed by David Rankin and NetBSD contributors.
121 This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
122 * NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
123 the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
124 this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
125 * UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
126 * UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
127 out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
128 * UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
129 issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
130 fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
131 * UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
132 code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
133 order to avoid database corruption!
134 * FIX: The file AppleVolumes.system contained wrong line breaks so that
135 not all file types were properly recognized.
136 * FIX: AFS compilation would fail due to a misnamed variable.
137 * FIX: SLP configure check was wrong so SLP did not compile.
138 * FIX: Fix the way quotas are handled under certain situations.
139 * FIX: Do not enable debugging code if debugging option is not set.
140 * FIX: Some problems with wrongly assigned DIDs were fixed.
141 * FIX: Various bug fixes and code cleanups.
146 * NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
147 verify the consistency of the CNID database.
148 * NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
150 * UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
151 * UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
152 * FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
153 * FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
155 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
156 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
157 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
158 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
163 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
164 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
165 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
166 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
171 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
172 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
173 generated during package build.
174 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
175 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
176 and prior bounds checking.
178 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
180 Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
182 Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
184 Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
187 Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
189 Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
192 Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
194 Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
196 Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
198 Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
201 Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
203 Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
205 Moved all the config files to .../config.
207 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
209 Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
212 Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
215 All sorts of other stuff.
217 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
219 Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
220 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
223 Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
225 Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
226 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
227 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
229 Added Kerberos support to papd.
231 atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
234 Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
235 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
236 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
237 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
240 atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
241 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
242 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
243 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
244 the owner doesn't have write permission.
246 Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
247 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
250 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
253 Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
254 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
255 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
257 Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
258 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
260 !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
261 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
262 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
263 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
264 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
267 Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
269 Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
270 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
271 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
273 afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
274 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
277 Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
278 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
279 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
281 Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
282 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
285 Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
286 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
287 on the Mac gray-ed out.
289 Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
290 which improves permission inheritance.
292 Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
293 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
294 users aren't interested in.
296 Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
297 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
299 Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
302 Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
303 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
304 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
305 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
307 Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
308 ever worked right on little endian machines!
310 Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
311 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
313 Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
314 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
317 Changes from the 1.3 release:
319 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
320 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
321 (corrupted) database.
323 Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
324 when copying to afpd.
326 Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
327 contain the written icon.
329 Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
330 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
331 machine running afpd.
333 Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
334 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
336 Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
337 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
338 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
339 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
341 Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
343 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
345 atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
346 from previous version will not work!
348 afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
349 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
350 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
351 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
353 afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
356 There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
358 Changes from the 1.2 release:
360 The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
361 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
362 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
364 The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
365 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
366 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
367 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
369 The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
371 aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
373 nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
374 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
375 environment variable.
377 nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
379 afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
380 silently denying service.
382 A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
383 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
385 Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
386 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
388 atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
391 atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
392 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
393 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
395 pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
396 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
397 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
398 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
399 card for HP LJIIISIs.
401 pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
404 A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
405 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
407 A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
409 atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
410 hasn't recieved anything yet.
412 atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
413 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
414 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
416 Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
419 The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
421 The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
423 The README files for various machine have been updated
