~ftp/x500/README: University of Michigan X.500 related distributions
This is the long list; see ~ftp/x500/MANIFEST for shorter descriptions.
9 June 1992
DIXIE server/library/ud client
Location: ~ftp/x500/dixie-1.4.tar.Z
Version: 1.4
Description: The dixie distribution contains an intermediate protocol
server that speaks X.500 on one side and dixie on the other
(over udp/tcp). The server does protocol translation,
ASN.1 encoding/decoding, etc. The server is used by
the maX.500 client described below. Also included
is a simple Unix client called ud, and an application
library that can be used by programmers to access the
dixie protocol (and thus X.500). Many of the other
X.500 servers and clients developed at U-M and elsewhere
make use of this software.
Changes: Support for audio attributes and jpeg format photos has
been added to the server and client library. The client
library has been enhanced to try all IP addresses the
dixie server name has listed in its DNS record (up to 4 IP
addresses on DOS and on the Macintosh). Numerous bug fixes
and enhancements to the server, library, and ud client.
Notes: The distribution is a compressed tar file.
9 June 1992
ud client Unix binaries distribution
Location: ~ftp/x500/ud.binaries.tar.Z
Version: 1.10
Description: ud is simple command line white pages interface to X.500.
The source is included in the DIXIE source distribution (see
above for details). This is a binary distribution that
includes version 1.10 of ud for the following platforms:
NeXT machine, NeXT OS 2.1
Sun Sparc family, SunOS 4.1.1
Sun-3 (MC68000) family, SunOS 3.5 and 4.1.1
DEC 3000/5000 (MIPS) family, Ultrix 4.2
IBM RS6000 family, AIX 3.1
Notes: The distribution is a compressed tar file.
9 June 1992
BUD X.500 client for MSDOS
Location: ~ftp/x500/bud.exe
Version: 1.10
Description: This is version 1.10 of the ud command-line X.500 client,
built for DOS using the NCSA TCP/IP software. It requires
that your MSDOS machine be configured to run NCSA Telnet.
There is no documentation for bud at the present time.
Notes: The distribution is binary MSDOS .exe file.
9 June 1992
go500 Gopher to X.500 gateway daemon
Location: ~ftp/x500/go500.tar.Z
Version: N/A
Description: go500 is a simple daemon that transforms queries from Gopher
clients to X.500 queries. Point your gopher client at
totalrecall.rs.itd.umich.edu port 5555 if you want to try
this out.
Notes: The distribution is a compressed tar file. go500 has only
been built and tested on a Sun4 running SunOS 4.1.1. There
are definite University of Michigan dependencies in the code,
but they can easily be cleaned up.
19 May 1992
X.500 Finger daemon
Location: ~ftp/x500/dixie-fingerd.tar.Z
Version: N/A
Description: This is a replacement for the standard Unix finger daemon
that looks up names in X.500 instead of in /etc/passwd or
the local equivalent. It uses the dixie protocol and
client library (see "DIXIE server/library/ud client" above).
If you want to see how it works, finger <name>@umich.edu.
Notes: The distribution is a compressed tar file. This has only
been built and tested on a Sun4 running SunOS 4.1.1. There
are definite University of Michigan dependencies in the code,
but they can easily be cleaned up.
18 October 1991
maX.500 Macintosh client binary distribution
Location: ~ftp/x500/maX.500.sit.hqx
Version: 1.1
Description: This software provides X.500 white pages access from the Mac
Notes: This is a Binhex format, StuffIt 1.5 file compressed file
with the binary and some documentation enclosed. It can
be ftp'd in text/ASCII mode. You will need StuffIt 1.5 or
later to decode and decompress the file.
18 September 1991
X.500 sendmail
Location: ~ftp/x500/x500sendmail-5.64.x500.tar.Z
~ftp/x500/x500sendmail-5.65.x500.tar.Z
Version: 1.1
Description: A sendmail (5.64 or 5.65, take your pick) modified to
do X.500 lookups. Lookups are accomplished by using udp
to contact the dixie server, which keeps a connection open
to the DSA. Instructions for making and configuring things
are in the sendmail source in READ_ME.X500. Mail sent
to <name>@umich.edu makes use of this modified sendmail.
Changes: Since 1.0, the x.500 sendmail now uses the dixie server
instead of duad. Also, a few changes to the way
lookups are done (uid's are now looked up). Groups are also
handled. A few bug fixes, too.
Notes: This distribution is a compressed tar file. Also, the
distribution contains only the src/ subdirectory of the
sendmail distribution, so you should cd into the toplevel
sendmail source directory before untarring.
