- 4/18/90: Packaged auth 2.1 to replace previous comp.sources.unix submission.
- 4/18/90: authd version 2.1.
- 4/18/90: authd looks much prettier.
- 4/18/90: attachport version 4.1.
- 4/18/90: authd supports ! lock files.
- 4/18/90: attachport forks as real uid.
- 4/18/90: attachport now checks periodically for lost children.
- 4/18/90: Corrected locking scheme for exceptional (i.e. impossible) cases.
- 4/18/90: authtcp version 2.1.
- 4/18/90: authtcp forks as real uid.
- 4/18/90: attachport handles signals better.
- 4/18/90: authtcp handles signals better. It's annoying that extensions
- to the signal semantics could make secure programs insecure.
- 4/18/90: attachport is now just as careful.
- 4/18/90: authtcp is now ridiculously careful to switch to effective uid
- before unlinking lock file and to real uid before exiting.
- 4/18/90: Aargh, fork() uses effective uid rather than real uid for
- MAXUPRC checks. This ``feature'' can bring down attachport and
- authtcp if MAXUPRC is small and the machine is big.

- attachport version 3.0, 11/1/89.
-
- 4/1/90: authuser now checks for USERID from the Authentication Server,

- 4/1/90: authd now uses unsigned where it should.

-
- 4/1/90: authd supports new locking protocol.
- 4/1/90: authtcp supports new locking protocol.
- 4/1/90: Set up new locking procedure to prevent authentication race
- condition; attachport will have to support this too.

-
- 3/27/90: authtcp now supports getservbyname()---and an interesting
- inconsistency showed up! Check sockaddr_in in netinet/in.h
- versus servent.s_port in netdb.h. Ho hum.
- 3/27/90: Touched up authtcp a bit.
-

- 1/31/90: authtcp version 1.52.
-
- 1/31/90: authtcp now supports TSTP.
- 1/31/90: Both programs now have AUTHDIR ifdefed so it can go into Makefile.
-
- Getopt usage compatible with dumb getopt (no special numeric treatment).
-
- 1/7/90: authd version 1.5.
- 1/7/90: authtcp version 1.5.
-
- Both programs now use getopt.

-
- authtcp: Whoops, really should turn off TSTP, as we don't handle stopping.
