New Meson option `-Dwith-install-hooks' controls this behavior,
allowing you to disable the install hook in non-privileged environments.
On Linux systems with glibc, we now install the following config file:
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/libatalk.conf
* BREAKING: meson: Introduce option to control which manual l10n to build,
GitHub #1390
New Meson option `-Dwith-manual-l10n' default to empty, can be set to

GitHub #1384
When configuring with `-Dwith-rpath=true' the linker flags
`-Wl,-rpath,' will be prepended instead of the old `-R' flag.
On Linux platforms, we no longer prepend `-Wl,--enable-new-dtags',
either.

talking to the CNID daemons. Previously the volume was flagged read-only
and an AFP message was sent to the client. As this might result in
TimeMachine assuming the backup sparse bundle is damaged, we now just
switch the CNID database to an in-memory tdb without the additional stuff.

Changes in 2.2.2
================
* NEW: afpd: New option "adminauthuser". Specifying e.g. "-adminauthuser root"
whenever a normal user login fails, afpd tries to authenticate as
the specified adminauthuser. If this succeeds, a normal session is
created for the original connecting user. Said differently: if you
know the password of adminauthuser, you can authenticate as any other
user.
* NEW: configure option "--enable-suse-systemd" for openSUSE12.1 and later.
"--enable-redhat-systemd" and "--enable-suse-systemd" are same as

* UPD: afpd: Enhance ACL support detection for volumes: enable them per volume
if
1) ACL support compiled in, 2) the volume supports ACLs, 3) the new
volume option "noacls" is not set for the volume.
The previous behaviour was to enable ACL support for a volume if
1) it was compiled in and 2) the volume supported ACLs. There was no way
to disable ACLs for a volume.

Changes in 2.2alpha5
====================
* UPD: afpd: new option "searchdb" which enables fast catalog searches
using the CNID db.
* UPD: Case-insensitive fast search with the CNID db
* UPD: cnid_dbd: afpd now passes the volume path, not the db path when
connecting for a volume. cnid_dbd will read the
".AppleDesktop/.volinfo" file of the volume in order to figure
out the CNID db path and the volume charset encoding.
Changes in 2.2alpha4
====================
* NEW: Enhanced CNID "dbd" database for fast name search support.

* UPD: afpd: ACLs usable (though not visible on the client side) without common
directory service, by mapping ACLs to UARight
* UPD: afpd: performance improvements for ACL access calculations
* UPD: AppleTalk is disabled by default at configuration time. If needed

Changes in 2.1.1
================
* UPD: fallback to a temporary in memory tdb CNID database if the volume
database can't be opened now works with the default backend "dbd" too.

after 2.1 in case of BerkeleyDB library updates, Netatalk
will be able to upgrade the CNID databases.
* NEW: afpd: store and read CNIDs to/from AppleDouble files by default.
This is used as a cache and as a backup in case the database

* FIX: initscripts installation now correctly uses autoconf paths,
i.e. they're installed to --sysconfdir.

Linux 2.6 sends broadcast queries to the first available socket
which is in our case the last configured one. atalkd now tries to
find the right one.

'perm' value OR with the client requested permissions. (help with OSX 10.5
strange permissions).

for keeping the old behavior, i.e. for OS9 (OSX hide dot files on its
own).

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

This includes a new configure option --enable-netbsd.
* NEW: Add the -client_polling afpd.conf flag to allow for clients to poll
the server every 10 seconds for open window updates. Currently
this is the only way to get asynchronous directory updates.
* UPD: Use separate macro for AFS configure check.
* UPD: Some Perl scripts are now (partially) auto-generated. This improves
out-of-the-box usage of Netatalk.
* UPD: Solaris Kernel Makefile is now auto-generated. This fixes some path
issues, but isn't perfect, yet. Added some Solaris compatibility
fixes to the Kernel sources, too.
* UPD: CNID DB code sync'd with the current CVS version. NOTE: Using this
code requires you to delete _all_ existing .AppleDB directories in
order to avoid database corruption!

Changes in 1.5.1
================
* NEW: Added a program called cnid_didname_verify that can be used to
verify the consistency of the CNID database.
* NEW: New afpd option: -timeout. Warning: This still doesn't do what it's
supposed to!
* UPD: Code cleanups and compatibility fixes to macusers.
* UPD: AppleVolumes.system was cleaned up.
* FIX: Really fix Tru64 compilation (see last entry).
* FIX: Hand correct error value back to AFP client when deleting files or
directories fails.
* FIX: Leading or trailing spaces are now forbidden on volumes that have
the AFPVOL_MSWINDOWS flag set.
* FIX: Minor code cleanups and warning fixes.
* FIX: Make quota support work on FreeBSD.
Changes in 1.5.0
================
* FIX: Compilation on Tru64 systems was broken, since libtool's acinclude.m4
file on the packagers system did not contain the necessary patch.
* FIX: On some systems, atalkd refuses to start, since it couldn't detect
any interfaces. This was caused by an overzealous validity check.
Changes in 1.5rc2
=================
* FIX: contrib/shell_utils/lp2pap.sh was erased when "make clean" was called.
Now we distribute lp2pap.sh.tmpl instead, and lp2pap.sh is automatically
generated during package build.
* FIX: Some platforms (notably Tru64) don't have the snprintf() call, which
was used in etc/afp/afp_config.c. This call was replaced by sprintf()
and prior bounds checking.
Changes from the 1.4b1 release:
===============================
* Fixed the maximum free/total volume size in afpd.
* Made ~ the default volume in afpd.
* Fixed pid file handling and changed setpgrp() to setpgid() in afpd,
papd, and atalkd.
* Added code to afpd to set the Unix file time stamps with utime().
* Fixed a bug in papd's printcap code which limited it to 15 or so
printers.
* Fixed papd's handling of piped printers.
* Fixed papd's handling of bad job names.
* Fixed atalkd to send NBP LKUP packets from NBP port.
* Added "sync;sync;sync" to Solaris kinstall to help with streams
file corruption.
* Added nlocalrts to streams ddp.conf. Thanks Thomas Tornblom.
* Fixed signed extension infinite loop in Solaris module.
* Moved all the config files to .../config.
Changes from the 1.3.3 release:
===============================
* Added code from Sun Microsystems, Inc (OPCOM) for Solaris support.
See COPYRIGHT.
* Added support for FreeBSD, mostly changes by Mark Dawson and Julian
Elischer.
* All sorts of other stuff.
Changes from the 1.3.1 release:
===============================
* Added options to psf's filter names to support accounting on HPs.
!!! NOTE: The location of the filters has changed, see the man
page for where.
* Added code from Alan Cox to support Linux.
* Rewrote papd. Now handles dropped connections better.
Configuration has been modernized. !!! NOTE: The format of the
configuration file has changed, but NOT THE NAME.
* Added Kerberos support to papd.
* atalkd now removes routes on a SIGTERM. Still can't just restart
it, but it's closer.
* Changed atalkd and the kernel driver to remove a hack added to
support sending to 0.255. Now the kernel will allow multiple open
sockets with the same port, so long as the addess associated with
the port is different. atalkd now opens a socket for each port on
each interface.
* atalkd now rewrites its configuration file. If no configuration
file is given, one will be generated. Permissions on the new
configuration file will be inherited from the old one. If there is
no old one, permissions default to 644. Won't rewrite the file if
the owner doesn't have write permission.
* Removed support for the "AFS Kerberos UAM", in favor of the
"AuthMan UAM". Kerberos support should now be much more
straight-forward.
* Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause incorrect group calculations
on ultrix machines.
* Fixed a bug in afpd which causes SimpleText and some other
applications to silently fail to write. There's also a bug in
MacOS, but we can't fix that.
* Fixed a bad interaction with afpd and AFS which would cause file
writes to not propogate between AFS clients.
* !!! CHANGED the name(s) of afpd's config files. The new files are
AppleVolumes.system and AppleVolumes.default. If AppleVolumes.system
exists, it is always read, AppleVolumes.default is only read if the
user has no AppleVolumes file. Included a flag "-u" to indicate
which file has precedence. "-u" user wins, otherwise ".system"
wins.
* Rewrote the AppleVolumes parsing code. Now works.
* Added a filename extension mapping to afpd. User always takes
precedence, regardless of the "-u" flag. Code to change the type
of all Unix files contributed by Kee Hinckley .
* afpd now supports both UFS and AFS volumes simultaneously. It also
uses access() to attempt to calculate reasonable Mac permissions
for AFS directories.
* Changed reporting of file times. Files that are written from Unix
now update the Mac's idea of the files modification time. Unix
mtime is now reported instead of ctime.
* Added support for a new UAM to afpd. This requires that client
Macs have MacTCP and AuthMan installed. Should make running afpd
for AFS easier.
* Removed code so that otherwise valid volumes for which the mounting
user has no permission will appear in the volume selection dialog
on the Mac gray-ed out.
* Added code from Chris Metcalf of MIT to the AppleDouble library
which improves permission inheritance.
* Added code from G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec, Inc to better report
errors in psf. Also changed psf to use syslog for errors that
users aren't interested in.
* Added information to psf's man page to better explain the
interaction between psf, pap, and lpd.
* Make psf/pap/psa do accounting when it's turnes on in
/etc/printcap.
* Changed pap's error message when there is no printer specified on
the command line and no .paprc is found. Also heavily modified
pap's man page to reflect changes in the "new" version of pap,
including moving it from section 8 to section 1.
* Fixed a byte-order bug in pap's sequence numbers. Doubt if pap has
ever worked right on little endian machines!
* Added a flag to pap to optionally close before receiving EOF from
the printer. Off by default. psf calls pap with this option on.
* Added timeouts to the nbp library calls. This means that processes
won't hang when atalkd dies during boot, thus hanging your
machine.
Changes from the 1.3 release:
=============================
* Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause APPL mappings to contain both
mac and unix path names. The fixed code will handle the old
(corrupted) database.
* Fixed a *very* serious bug which would cause files to be corrupted
when copying to afpd.
* Fixed a bug in afpd which would cause replies to icon writes to
contain the written icon.
* Filled in the function code switch in afpd. Previously, a hacker
could probably have used afpd to get unauthorized access to a
machine running afpd.
* Fixed a bug in the asp portion of libatalk.a which could cause the
malloc()/free() database to be corrupted.
* Fixed a bug in atalkd's zip query code. With this bug, only the
first N % 255 nets get queried. However, since nets bigger than
255 are usually pretty unstable, the unqueried for nets will
eventually get done, when N drops by one.
* Suppressed a spurious error ("route: No such process") in atalkd.
Changes from the 1.2.1 release:
===============================
* atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf
from previous version will not work!
* afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration
for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related
byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords
were added (thanks to [email protected]).
* afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to
[email protected]).
* There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.
Changes from the 1.2 release:
=============================
* The Sun support now uses loadable kernel modules (a la VDDRV)
instead of binary patches. As such, it should work on any sunos
greater than 4.1, and is confirmed to work under 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
* The DEC support no longer requires source. It also runs under
ultrix 4.1 and 4.2. It still requires patching your kernel, but the
patches are limited to those files available to binary-only sites
-- primarily hooks for things like netatalk.
* The etc.rc script now uses changes made to nbprgstr (see below).
* aecho now takes machine names on the command line.
* nbplkup now takes a command line argument specifying the number of
responses to accept. It also takes its defaults from the NBPLKUP
environment variable.
* nbprgstr may be used to register a name at any requested port.
* afpd now logs if an illegal shell is used during login, instead of
silently denying service.
* A bug in afpd which caused position information for the directory
children of the root of a volume to be ignored has been fixed.
* Several typos in afpd which would cause include files necessary to
ultrix to be skipped have been fixed.
* atalkd will no long propagate routes to networks whose zone
it doesn't know.
* atalkd no longer dumps core if it receives a ZIP GetMyZone request
from a network whose zone it doesn't know. (Since this currently
can only happen from off net, it's not precisely a legal request.)
* pap and papd (optionally) no longer check the connection id in PAP
DATA responses. Both also maintain the function code in non-first-packet
PAP DATA responses. These changes are work-arounds to deal with
certain AppleTalk printer cards, notably the BridgePort LocalTalk
card for HP LJIIISIs.
* pap no longer sends an EOF response to each PAP SENDDATA request,
only the first.
* A bug in papd which would cause it to return a random value when
printing the procset to a piped printer has been fixed.
* A bug relating to NBP on reverse-endian machines has been fixed.
* atp_rsel() from libatalk now returns a correct value even if it
hasn't recieved anything yet.
* atalk_addr() from libatalk no longer accepts addresses in octal
format, since AppleTalk addresses can have leading zeros. Also it
checks that the separator character is a '.'.
* Pseudo man pages for nbplkup, nbprgstr, and nbpunrgstr, have been
added.
* The example in the psf(8) man page is now correct.
* The man pages for changed commands have been updated.
* The README files for various machine have been updated
appropriately.
