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

339 * NEW: CNID handling completely reworked. We now use per Volume configurable
341 * NEW: Two new daemons, cnid_metad and cnid_dbd to implement the dbd CNID backend.
342 Using Berkeley DB transactions with the CNID database should be safe now.
343 * NEW: The on disk format of the CNID database has changed. We now support 8 byte
344 device and inode numbers and an additinal type field that should make
345 detection of file/directory changes outside of afpd more robust.
346 Changed from HASH to BTREE access which speeds things up in certain cases
347 and reduces database file size.
348 * NEW: Long file name mangling is now implemented using the CNID ID, so no database is
349 required to map names to mangled names. This is the same method Mac OS X uses.
350 * NEW: New format (version 2) for Metadata in AppleDouble files. We record device and
351 inode of the underlying file as well as the CNID. This can be used for recovery
352 and speeds up access to the CNID.
353 * NEW: The old NLS codepage system has been removed. It was replaced by an iconv
354 based conversion system, which provides much more flexibility.
355 * NEW: You can safely use extended characters in volume names and for SIGUSR2 messaging.
356 * NEW: The default volume encoding is UTF-8.
357 * NEW: All documentation is now generated using DocBook. New or completely reworked
358 sections about installing, setting up and upgrading Netatalk replace various
359 README files in the doc directory.
360 * FIX: Protect afpd better against unexpected signals during updates of the CNID
361 database with the cdb backend. This makes database corruption less likely.
362 * FIX: All manpages have been reviewed and should now be up to date.
363 * FIX: Tons of bug fixes since 1.6.4. Please consults the CVS change log for details.
368 * NEW: afpd: Using the mswindows option now implicitly specifies usedots.

535 * FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
536 the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
537 * FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
538 * FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
543 * FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
544 file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
545 * FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
546 any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
551 * FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
552 Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
553 generated during package build.
554 * FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
555 was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
556 and prior bounds checking.
558 Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
559 ===============================
561 * Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
563 * Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
565 * Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
568 * Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
570 * Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
573 * Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
575 * Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
577 * Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
579 * Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
582 * Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
584 * Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
586 * Moved all the config files to .../config.
588 Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
589 ===============================
591 * Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
594 * Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
597 * All sorts of other stuff.
599 Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
600 ===============================
602 * Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
603 !!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
606 * Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
608 * Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
609 Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
610 configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
612 * Added Kerberos support to papd.
614 * atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
617 * Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
618 support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
619 sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
620 the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
623 * atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
624 file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
625 configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
626 no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
627 the owner doesn't have write permission.
629 * Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
630 "AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
633 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
636 * Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
637 applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
638 MacOS, but we can't fix that.
640 * Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
641 writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
643 * !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
644 AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
645 exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
646 user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
647 which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
650 * Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
652 * Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
653 precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
654 of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley <nazgul@utopia.com>.
656 * afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
657 uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
660 * Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
661 now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
662 mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
664 * Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
665 Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
668 * Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
669 user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
670 on the Mac gray-ed out.
672 * Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
673 which improves permission inheritance.
675 * Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
676 errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
677 users aren't interested in.
679 * Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
680 interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
682 * Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
685 * Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
686 the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
687 pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
688 including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
690 * Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
691 ever worked right on little endian machines!
693 * Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
694 the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
696 * Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
697 won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
700 Changes from the 1.3 release:
701 =============================
703 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
704 mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
705 (corrupted) database.
707 * Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
708 when copying to afpd.
710 * Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
711 contain the written icon.
713 * Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
714 could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
715 machine running afpd.
717 * Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
718 malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
720 * Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
721 first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
722 255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
723 eventually get done, when N drops by one.
725 * Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
727 Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
728 ===============================
730 * atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
731 from previous version will not work!
733 * afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
734 for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
735 byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
736 were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).
738 * afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
741 * There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
743 Changes from the 1.2 release:
744 =============================
746 * The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
747 instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
748 greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
750 * The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
751 ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
752 patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
753 -- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
755 * The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
757 * aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
759 * nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
760 responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
761 environment variable.
763 * nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
765 * afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
766 silently denying service.
768 * A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
769 children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
771 * Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
772 ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
774 * atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
777 * atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
778 from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
779 can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
781 * pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
782 DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
783 PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
784 certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
785 card for HP LJIIISIs.
787 * pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
790 * A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
791 printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
793 * A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
795 * atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
796 hasn't recieved anything yet.
798 * atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
799 format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
800 checks that the separator character is a '.'.
802 * Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
805 * The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
807 * The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
809 * The README files for various machine have been updated
