NOTE: THIS LOG IS IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER


1.5.00    announced to mailing list

1.5.01 1/12/93
    - configuration through makefile only
    - fixed silly bug that made the client not accept dir's from
    the server
    - tested and updated include files for ultrix, aix and solaris
    - several things fixed thanks to [e-mail]
    who provided invaluable help and advice.

1.5.02 1/12/93
    - added username option to services file so connection
    as non guest from lanmanager is possible
    - made server abort when it can't read/write on a socket
    - added logging to client

1.5.03 2/12/93
    - printing now works
    - fixed a minor bug to do with hidden and system attributes

1.5.04 2/12/93
    - added reduce_name() call to fill in security hole.
    - cleanup up debug stuff a little

1.5.05 2/12/93
    - fixed bug in reduce_name that affects services with base paths
    that have a soft link in them.

1.5.06 3/12/93
    - used the reserved server field in the search status to hold the
    directory pointer. This allows lots of directories to be open
    at once by clients without stuffing things up.
    - preserved all the client reserved bytes in the search status
    in case they actually use them. Hopefully this will fix the annoying
    empty directory dir bug. (it does)

1.5.07 3/12/93
    - fixed silly bug that caused volume ids to appear twice
    - fixed a wrote-too-few bug in smb_send()

1.5.08 3/12/93
    - did the SMBsearch properly. It can now handle recursive searches.
    In order to keep the required dir info I encode the dirptr and
    the current dir offset (from telldir) into 5 bytes by using a table
    on the last 7 bits of the first byte. The first bit is always on
    as this byte must by != 0
    This is all put in the "server reserved" search field.

1.5.09 5/12/93
    - added a prototype nameserver. It's broken but can at least interpret
    incoming packets.
    - minor fixes to the server and client


1.5.10 5/12/93
    - fixed silly unsigned/signed char bug that made dosshell noot see all files
    - added nmbd to Makefile

1.5.11 6/12/93
    - made the volume label appear as the service name, rather than "Remote"
    - made the nmbd actually work (a little) for lanman for dos

1.5.12 7/12/93
    - fixed broadcasting in the nameserver
    - the smbd now correctly sets the pid and uid
    - nmbd now seems to work enough to satisfy the MS client.


1.5.13 7/12/93
    - fixed a silly bug that truncated filenames
    - added -B option to nameserver to specify bcast address
    - added -R option to nameserver to prevent name registering
    - fixed minor read() bug. Does this fix the "cmp" bug?

1.5.14 8/12/93
    - fixed a bug in send_login() in the client. Thanks to
    [e-mail] for pointing this out.
    - changed name_mangle() to pad to minimum of 32 bytes with spaces
    - changed the returned buffer size in reply_connect() to not
    count the 4 byte length field. This fixes the "can execute" bug
    and the "comp" bug
    - once again re-wrote the directory pointer handling code.
    now "tree" works correctly

1.5.15 9/12/93
    - fixed name mangle bug introduced in 1.5.14 which stopped
    nameserver from working

1.5.16 9/12/93
    - arrgh. another silly bug in name_mangle() causes the client to die.


1.5.17 13/12/93
    - some cosmetic cleanups to the code
    - changed make_connection not to lower case the password (thanks
    to [e-mail])
    - fixed accept() bug not initialising in_addrlen (thanks to
    [e-mail])
    - fixed cd bug in client.c (thanks to [e-mail])
    - lots of fixes to the nameserver to read_socket and
    associated routines. It should now correctly reply to the originating
    address and use the correct broadcast.
    (thanks to [e-mail])
    - SVR4 patches from [e-mail]
    - changed the default BUFFER_SIZE to 0xFFFF

1.5.18 15/12/93
    - minor fix to reply_printqueue() to zero data buffer array.
    - added print command to client.
    - fixed minor bug in cmd_put() in client where a handle could
    be closed without being previously opened.
    - minor cleanups to the client
    - minor solaris fixes from [e-mail]
    - SYSV, shadow password  and dfree() fixes from [e-mail]
    - fixed reply_delete() to not delete read-only files

    Thanks to [e-mail] for pointing this out.
    - posix mode definitions and changes from [e-mail]


1.5.19 18/12/93
    - another very minor fix to dfree().
    - minor change to SVR4 makefile entry from [e-mail]
    - changed reply_open not to open directories, this fixes the
    "copy .." bug pointed out by [e-mail]
    - changed dos_mode() so it doesn't return hidden and system info
    on directories.
    - changed get_dir_entry() not to descend into proc/self under linux
    control this with the DONT_DESCEND define in includes.h
    - changed smb_setlen() to add in the SMB id. (thanks
    to [e-mail])
    - fixed minor bug in reply_dir() so it won't return a ACCESS_DENIED
    when searching a directory that is unreadable
    - removed second stat() from get_dir_entry() (speed up)
    - made null searches close the dirptr (fixes big filesystem problem)
    - fixed clean_name for cd .. (from [e-mail])


1.5.20 28/12/93
    - added debug statement in case of SMBcreate with volid set ([e-mail])
    - fixed a bug in dptr_close() so it sets the next_key to a better
    value, this fixes a annoying dir bug
    - LOTS of changes from [e-mail] (Jeremy Allison). This
    makes it possible to at least connect to a NT server with the client
    and also fixes up much of the socket/process code. This also includes
    stuff for compiling on a sun386
    - got the client working with the Syntax server (a commercial
    smb-based server). This required a few minor changes so the xmit
    sizes were negotiated properly.
    - added support for OSF1, tested on a DEC3000/400 alpha.
    - fixed the ifconf support under ultrix

1.5.21 31/12/93
    - minor cosmetic change to reduce_name()
    - changes for HPUX from [e-mail] (Pasi Kaara)
    - minor fix to nameserver
    - revamped configuration file format. It now takes a Windows-style
          (.INI style) configuration file. See the file services for
          full details of the format. New files: loadparm.c, loadparm.h,
          params.c, params.h, testparm.c. Several changes to smb.h, local.h,
          server.c, Makefile. The services structure is no longer visible
          to the rest of the system. (Karl Auer)
        - added ability to specify a print command on a per service basis
          and globally via the configuration file. Also allows guest account
          to be specified in the configuration file. Made appropriate changes
          to server.c so that these data items are obtained from the config
          module rather than from hardcoded strings (though the hardcoded
          strings are still the source of the defaults). (Karl Auer)
        - renamed old-style configuration file to services.old (Karl Auer)
        - changed README to reflect new configuration details. (Karl Auer)
        - removed an item from the bugs wishlist (now supplied!) (Karl Auer)
        - protected smb.h against multiple compilation. (Karl Auer)
        - protected local.h against multiple compilation. (Karl Auer)
    - made config stuff do dynamic allocation
    - added "homes" capability
    - added create_mask to each service in config

1.5.22 3/1/94
    - added "root dir" option for extra security
    - added -n option to client (useful for OS/2)
    - changed operation of -n to nameserver to be more useful
    - patches from Jeremy Allison ([e-mail])
    fixing bug in set_message(), fixing up wait3() for SYSV,
    making cd check the path in the client, allowing fetching to stdin
    in client, and enhancing prompt in client to include directory.
    - made the -D become_daemon() actually detach from the tty. This
    may need tuning for different flavors of unix.
    - added "dont descend" option to each service to prevent infinite
    loops on recursive filesystems.
    - updated README to add "running as a daemon" and a simple
    smb.conf file.
    - HP/UX fixes from [e-mail]
    - made lock calls only if opened with write enabled, as pointed out
    by [e-mail]

1.5.23 4/1/94
    - minor fix to logging of data in receive_smb(). It used to
    miss the last 4 bytes of packets.
    - added the pid,uid and mid fields to the negotiation phase of
    the client.
    - made client able to print from stdin
    - added password on command line for client
    - created a sample printcap input filter "smbprint"
    - several fixes to client to work with OS/2
    - added mput, mget, prompt and lcd to client

1.5.24 5/1/94
    - a resend of 1.5.23 as I managed to not include the new
    prompt, mput and mget code.

    when either of "hosts allow" or "hosts deny" is blank
    - added the SO_KEEPALIVE option to configurations of sockets in the
    server
    - made some of the SVAL fns into macros to keep fussy compilers from

1.5.27 11/1/94
    - fixed opening mode for reply_open() in server

    "core+" protocol. The patches also inclued some other features, such
    as a new read_with_timeout() call (used by SMBreadbraw), and auto
    detection of the need to create a socket.
    - changed the default KEEPALIVE value to 0, as it caused
    problems with Lanmanager.
    - added tar capability to client when getting files
    - altered unix_mode() to return x bits for directories
    - fixed bug in trim_string()

1.5.28 12/1/94
    - cleaned up the debug levels a little so debug level 1 is a practical
    level for general use
    - fixed a bug in add_a_service() where a freed pointer was referenced. Thanks
    to [e-mail] for finding the bug.
    - fixed bug in time structure handling in server and client. Thanks to
    [e-mail] for pointing out the bug.

    - added support for setbuffer for HPUX (thanks to [e-mail])

1.5.31 29/1/94
        - added support for user level security in smbclient eg:
          smbclient "\\SERVER\SHARE" -U USERNAME%PASSWORD
        - added error message decode as per SMB File Sharing
          protocol extensions. (thanks to [e-mail])
        - added selection masks to smbclient that recurse down directory
          tree. eg: mget *.* with recurse and mask *.c on will retrieve all
          *.c files in the tree.
    - patches for FreeBSD from [e-mail]
    - changed reduce_name() to trim ./ from front of strings and / from
      back
    - fixed a nasty bug in trim_string().
    - numerous small changes to lots of stuff that I didn't
    document while I was doing them. Sorry :-(
    - slightly updated sockspy

       - The following was done by Karl Auer ([e-mail])
       - added processing in configuration file of a [printers] section. Allows
         connection to any printer specified in /etc/printcap (or the file
         specified in the global parameter 'printcap name').
       - added full processing of 'available' flag to configuration file. A
         service can now be 'turned off' by specifying 'available = no'. Of
         dubious utility.
       - added 'printcap =' parameter to [global] section in the configuration
         file. This allows the normal /etc/printcap to be bypassed when
         checking printer names for dynamic printer connections via [printers].
       - added 'printer name =' parameters to both the [global] section and
         services sections of the configuration file. This allows the printer
         name only to be set, without having to specify an entire print
         command.
       - added some synonyms: 'writable' and 'write ok' have the opposite sense
         to 'read only'. 'public' may be used instead of 'guest ok'. 'printer'
         may be used instead of 'printer name'. 'printable' is the same as
         'print ok'. 'root' may be used instead of 'root dir' or 'root
         directory'.
       - added lots more detail to the sample configuration file to take
         account of the above.
       - many minor fixes to internal documentation in the configuration
         sources.
       - also - Man pages!

      from Karl Auer
    - zombie process fix from [e-mail]

    dead connections to the smbd.
    - HPUX changes from [e-mail]
    - made use of unsigned char more consistent
    - changed the way of getting the default username and host in the

    Use -DLANMAN1=1 to make it on in both.
    - lots of casts and cleanups for various operating systems
    - changes to the Makefile from Karl to auto-instal the man pages

    - minor fixes to the client
    - added hosts file to name server (-H option)
    - added -G option for groups to nameserver

    - fixed bug in smbclient so that "dir" didn't work correctly
    with pathworks
    - possibly fixed bug in server that led to "abort retry ignore" from
    pathworks client when doing a "dir".
    - changed behaviour of smbclient login slightly, to try a
    blank password in SMBtcon if the right password fails, and a
    session setup has succeeded. Some clients seem to use a blank
    one if a session setup has succeeded.
    - ISC patches from [e-mail]
    - the client now tries to do name registration using a unicast.
    Let me know if this helps anyone.
    - tried to add a "contributed" line to each OS in the Makefile.

1.5.39 18/2/94
    - fixed silly C code that only worked with some compilers
    - fixed another silly bug in nameserv.c that caused it to seg fault

    This improves the debug info.
    - made SMBopen ignore supplied attribute as per X/Open spec

    if this breaks something. It is implied in the X/Open spec. This
    fixes the pkzip bug.
    - added dptr_demote() to replace dptr_close() to try and fix
    pathworks dir bug. This has the potential disadvantage of
    leaving lots of open file descriptors.
    - changed mask_match to disallow two .s in a name

1.5.41 2/3/94
    - added "dfree command" global option to smbd to support an
    external "disk free" executable (typically a script). This gets
    around the problem of getting disk free info reliably on lots
    of systems.
    - added ffirst and fclose to client
    - simple SYSVR4 patch from [e-mail]
    - added better uid/gid reporting for debugging purposes
    - several changes to the logon procedure for the client, so hopefully
    it will connect correctly to a wider range of servers.

==========
todo:

new nmb.conf file

integrate in the afs changes from iastate

proper include file handling - need to keep a date for each include file
(linked list?) and check for changes against those dates. A pain.

add print queue deletion from smbclient

raw write in smbclient put routines (current put is VERY slow)

add "strip tail" option??
what happens when share locks are NFS mounted and non-writeable?
try NT touch
NEXT has problem with uids?
what happens when printer not found in a lpq? (eg: printcap not readable)



UNRESOLVED PROBLEMS
===================

---
ALLOW_PASSWORD_CHANGE only compiles/works on some systems

---
multiple interfaces and nmbd. nmb.conf should be started with much
richer settings.

---
The mangled map stuff doesn't seem to work in all situations
