- smbfs 1.19 (27.11.2000)
-
- - Fixed ACTION_FINDOUTPUT implementation; the memory to hold the
- name of the file to be created was released before the file
- was created. This could cause garbage to be written to the
- output file.
-
- - Fixed ACTION_COPY_DIR implementation; the name of the lock to
- be duplicated did not get duplicated.
-
- - Fixed ACTION_EXAMINE_OBJECT and ACTION_EXAMINE_NEXT
- implementations; protection bits are now reported 'properly'
- with respect to read/write access.
-
-
- smbfs 1.20 (27.11.2000)
-
- - ACTION_EXAMINE_NEXT now filters out SMB names that include
- '/' or ':' characters.
-
-
- smbfs 1.21 (28.11.2000)
-
- - Modified ACTION_RENAME_DISK to remove the volume node before
- changing it. It also sends the appropriate diskremove/diskinserted
- input events now.
-
- - Reorganized and rewrote the code to reduce dependencies on
- the compiler runtime library.
-
- - Unified error reporting code.
-
- - SMBFS can now be launched from Workbench using the same parameters
- you would use when starting it from Shell. Error reporting
- has been adapted to show an error requester and to pool error
- messages rather than printing them to the console.
-
-
- smbfs 1.22 (30.11.2000)
-
- - Fixed the test that looks for file/lock access mode collisions.
-
- - No longer changes the case of the password; there is now an
- option to make the change.
-
- - Fixed ACTION_SAME_LOCK which was comparing the same lock with
- itself.
-
- - Added support for ACTION_EXAMINE_ALL, ACTION_EXAMINE_ALL_END
- and ACTION_WRITE_PROTECT packet types.
-
- - No longer allows for files and locks to refer to "." and "..".
- The use of the backslash character '\' is also disallowed in
- Amiga file/directory names.
-
-
- smbfs 1.23 (30.11.2000)
-
- - In the ExNext()/ExAll() handling functions local error variables
- were shadowing each other. Fixed.
-
- - The error reporting requester now also lists the name of the
- service to connect to. This should help in telling different
- invocations of the program apart.
-
- - The size of the directory cache is now a configurable option.
-
- - Added a new option which forces all name comparisons to be
- done in a case-sensitive fashion.
-
- - Reading/writing data to/from a file in chunks larger than
- 65535 bytes could fail and cause the file system to hang.
-
-
- smbfs 1.24 (1.12.2000)
-
- - Added an option to allow hidden files to be omitted from
- directory listings.
-
- - Improved upon the error reporting in the code that directly
- calls the TCP/IP API functions.
-
- - Reorganized the AmigaDOS packet handling switch..case
- list.
-
- - Added support for ACTION_MORE_CACHE packet type. The
- cache in this context refers to the directory scanning
- cache.
-
- - Improved upon the host lookup error reporting code.
-
- - Added support for file name translation such as via the
- CrossDOS translation table files.
-
-
- smbfs 1.25 (2.12.2000)
-
- - SMBFS now displays some configuration information as soon as
- it has successfully connected to the file server and is ready
- for action. This output can be suppressed with the new
- "QUIET" command line parameter.
-
- - When removing a directory, the error code returned is examined
- more closely to see whether the directory was not yet empty.
-
- - When setting the protection bits of a file or directory, the
- file system now treats either 'protected from deletion' and
- 'protected from writing' as indications to mark a file as
- write protected. Previously, a file had to be both protected
- from deletion and from writing to be treated as write protected.
-
- - Cleaned up the program's data structures and eliminated all
- static data that would hold state information. The entire
- client side is now completely reentrant.
-
-
- smbfs 1.26 (3.12.2000)
-
- - File and directory names are no longer duplicated in the
- SMB abstraction layer. The strings supplied by the Amiga
- file system layer are referenced instead.
-
- - Changed the way the ACTION_MORE_CACHE implementation returns
- its result code to be compatible with current practices.
-
-
- smbfs 1.27 (4.12.2000)
-
- - The changes I made to the file read command in order to allow it
- to read more than 65535 bytes at a time did not allow read
- attempts at the end of the file to come out properly. Fixed.
-
- - Integrated password encryption code lifted from Samba. Hope
- it works as it should, because if it doesn't, I wouldn't know
- how to fix it...
-
-
- smbfs 1.28 (4.12.2000)
-
- - Oh dear, more fixes to the password encryption code and the
- connection setup to follow it. This time I managed to test the
- code briefly with Samba and password encryption enabled.
- Amazingly, it seems to work this time!
-
-
- smbfs 1.29 (6.12.2000)
-
- - Writes larger than 65535 bytes could stall and slow down the
- file system. Fixed. [Thore Böckelmann]
-
- - The ACTION_MORE_CACHE implementation never returned the total
- number of cache entries allocated. Fixed. [Thore Böckelmann]
-
- - Plain text passwords didn't seem to work any more after I made
- the changes to allow for encrypted passwords to be used. Fixed.
-
-
- smbfs 1.30 (6.12.2000)
-
- - Changed the structure of the share names by which the file system
- refers to the data on the server; they all start with a backslash
- now. This seems to help NT and doesn't break the rest.
-
- - For file shares exported using 'share level security', no passwords
- will be transmitted.
-
-
- smbfs 1.31 (7.12.2000)
-
- - The ACTION_EXAMINE and ACTION_EXAMINE_FH implementations now verify
- that the name to return will fit into the FileInfoBlock's limited
- buffer space.
-
- - Deleting files and directories from a directory currently being
- scanned via ACTION_EXAMINE_NEXT or ACTION_EXAMINE_ALL will now cause
- the directory scanner to restart. This is ugly, I know, but at least
- it won't cause the scanning process to hickup or lose entries
- directory entries during its course of duty. The flip side is that
- the scanner will probably return some entries twice. There must
- be a better way to implement this, but for now, this is it.
-
- - Tried to make device and volume node removal safer.
-
- - SMBFS now always adds a device node to go along with the volume node.
- It's safer that way because for every file system you either have a
- single device node in the system (and no volume node) or a volume
- node *and* a device node. If the device node is missing, there's
- typically something wrong and some application software cannot handle
- this case properly. SMBFS will attempt to add a new, unique device
- node every time it is launched.
-
- - When specifying the name of the file system device to add, SMBFS
- now complains if that name already exists.
-
-
- smbfs 1.32 (8.12.2000)
-
- - File and directory modification dates were always off by six hours and
- one second. I don't know how that happens, it doesn't seem to be a bug
- in the date conversion routines. I worked around the problem by adding
- and subtracting an adjustment value.
-
-
- smbfs 1.33 (10.12.2000)
-
- - The ACTION_PARENT_DIR implementation did not return a ZERO lock for
- the root directory. Fixed. [Rudolph Riedel]
-
- - Replaced the doubly-linked Exec lists with skip lists which
- are better suited for the repeated lookup operations that
- are so common in the file system. This time the list code
- seems to work properly.
-
- - Added -- largely untested -- time and date decoding routines for
- directory entries returned by NT.
-
-
- smbfs 1.34 (10.12.2000)
-
- - Had to take out the skip list code again since it did not seem to
- work reliably.
-
- - Further tweaking to the NT date and time decoding code.
-
-
- smbfs 1.35 (10.12.2000)
-
- - Small modification to the ACTION_EXAMINE_NEXT/ACTION_EXAMINE_ALL code
- which tries to work around a strange effect caused by Amiga Samba
- returning the contents of an empty drawer.
-
-
- smbfs 1.36 (11.12.2000)
-
- - More fixes to the NT date and time conversion code and the
- strange six hour fixup that seems to be necessary for the
- 'regular' time conversion to work.
-
-
- smbfs 1.37 (11.12.2000)
-
- - Replaced the entire 'regular' date and time conversion code. The
- strange six hour fixup is no longer necessary.
-
-
- smbfs 1.38 (11.12.2000)
-
- - Ditched the packet size kludges in "sock.c" and "proc.c" I had put
- in there. It seems that only the 'smba_write()'/'smba_read()' code
- could trigger it, and that code was fixed quite a while ago.
-
- - Migrated some code changes from the Samba source over to the
- directory scanner.
-
- - Maximum transmission size per packet is now the same as the
- number the server allowed us to use rather than a fixed number
- imposed by VM page sizes.
-
- - Tried to clean up more of the code.
-
- - Discovered that the 'smb_valid_packet()' routine never could have
- worked and fixed it so that it now finally does what it should do.
-
- - Better error propagation for some routines in "proc.c".
-
- - More streamlined error testing code.
-
-
- smbfs 1.39 (11.12.2000)
-
- - Almost fixed several bugs in 'smb_proc_readdir_long()'.
-
- - 'smb_proc_readdir_long()' does not work correctly. It only seems to
- work, but will fail if the scanner is to restart before the entire
- directory is read. Restored the old behaviour :(
-
-
- smbfs 1.40 (13.12.2000)
-
- - Took out some more unused and unnecessary code.
-
- - Rewrote the time and date conversion routines.
-
- - Modified the directory reading code so that it no longer relies
- upon the last directory entry index which doesn't seem to be
- correct most of the time.
-
- - Directory scanning errors are now flagged as such.
-
-
- smbfs 1.41 (16.12.2000)
-
- - In the SMB abstraction layer, the directory cache is now invalidated
- only if the respective action that could have invalidated it succeeds.
-
- - Now clears the directory cache only if the respective action would
- have affected the directory being cached.
-
- - In debug mode [Ctrl]+F will display a list of open files and allocated
- locks.
-
- - Added very silly support for ACTION_SET_COMMENT packet.
-
- - Found an interesting bug fix for 'smb_proc_readdir_long()' in the
- Linux 2.4.0 kernel which seemed worth integrating into the file system.
-
-
- smbfs 1.42 (19.12.2000)
-
- - Integrated Chris Hertel's broadcast name query code. This means that
- the name of the host whose file shares you want to access need no
- longer be in the hosts database. However, you still cannot refer to
- a host solely by its IP address.
-
-
- smbfs 1.43 (21.12.2000)
-
- - The integrated broadcase name query code would conflict with the
- DNS lookup. Fixed. [Thore Böckelmann]
-
- - The NetBIOS name query code now retries four times to get a response
- out of the network.
-
- - Put the mysterious 6 hour time offset fix back in.
-
-
- smbfs 1.44 (29.12.2000)
-
- - Rewrote the host lookup error reporting code to use the appropriate
- API function.
-
- - Discovered that all the functionality required by SMBFS was supported
- by the original free AmiTCP 3.0 release. Changed the "bsdsocket.library"
- open parameters.
-
- - The ACTION_EXAMINE_OBJECT implementation consistently got the name of
- the root directory wrong. Fixed.
-
-
- smbfs 1.45 (7.1.2001)
-
- - Discovered why file and directory creation dates were wrong by about
- six hours. Fixed.
-
- - The order of the parameters passed to the 'ExAll()' filter hook was
- wrong. Fixed [Thorsteinn Sveinsson and Matt Sealey].
-
-
- smbfs 1.46 (1.2.2001)
-
- - Removed the workarounds for the mysterious 'off by six hours' bug.
- The time delta value added was consistently wrong.
-
-
- smbfs 1.47 (18.2.2001)
-
- - The name of the domain/workgroup, the name of the user and the
- password to be used can now be preset using environment variables.
-
- - Changed the command line argument template to work better with the
- newly introduced environment variable settings.
-
-
- smbfs 1.48 (3.3.2001)
-
- - Modified the command template so that the final parameter can no
- longer cause all other parameters to be swallowed. Also updated
- the documentation.
-
-
- smbfs 1.49 (3.3.2001)
-
- - Handling of ACTION_FINDUPDATE needed improving. It should have
- created a file that didn't already exist. It now does [David Gerber].
-
-
- smbfs 1.50 (4.3.2001)
-
- - ACTION_FINDUPDATE is now associated with a shared lock. It used
- to be an exclusive lock [David Gerber].
-
- - The test to follow ACTION_FINDUPDATE that determines whether the
- file to open already exists now also tries to 'stat()' the file
- in question to find out whether it exists.
-
-
- smbfs 1.51 (13.3.2001)
-
- - Whoops. The new code to pull data from environment variables didn't
- actually check whether the work group name could be set up properly
- and thus didn't complain about it either. It now notifies you if
- no work group name was provided and none could be found.
-
