2 * Fix a race condition in cm_EndCallbackGrantingCall() that
3 could leave 'nrevp' pointing to freed memory. In the process,
4 optimize the processing to ensure that the applications monitoring
5 the status of the stat cache entry are only notified at most
8 * Conditionalize access to the Explorer Shell AFS->Mount Point
9 ->Remove menu item. Disable the item if the selected item(s)
12 * Activate AFS RPC (RX) Free Packet Queues stored in Thread
13 Local Storage. This eliminates thread contention on the
14 global RX free packet queue. This should improve performance
17 * Fix the IP address filtering code to properly load/unload
18 the IPHelper DLL so that Windows XP/2003 and beyond systems
19 do not have to manually probe the registry.
21 * CleanupACLEnt() was not being called consistently with
22 the cm_scache_t object referred to by the back pointer
23 mutex locked. This could in very rare conditions lead to
24 an invalid memory access.
26 * Added a script command to the msi installer "afs_replace"
27 which can be used to replace one version of OpenAFS with
28 another without requiring an uninstall and reinstall if
29 the installed msi is no longer in its original location.
31 * Apparently the problem with multi-domain forests with cross-
32 realm trusts to non-Windows realms was not entirely solved.
33 The authentication to the AFS SMB service failed because
34 the wrong name was being used. Using ASU as an example,
35 the authentication was being performed with the name
36 "QAAD\user" (an account in the forest root) and not
37 "user@ASU.EDU (the MIT Kerberos principal used to login with)
39 The solution was to add an additional dependency on KFW
40 in order or to be able to easily obtain the client principal
41 name stored in the MSLSA ccache TGT. This information is
42 used in two locations:
44 - the pioctl() function
46 - a new WinLogon Event Handler for the "logon" event.
48 The pioctl function will now be able to use the correct
49 name when calling WNetAddConnection2() and the "logon"
50 event handler will now be able to call WNetAddConnection2().
51 The hope is that the "logon" event handler will be called
52 before the profile is loaded but I have not guarrantee
56 * Fixed a locking error in cm_TryBulkStat() which had the
57 potential of deadlocking the system for the length of time
58 it takes to perform a bulk status fetch operation.
60 * Replaced time conversion code (UnixTime <-> FILETIME) to
61 be completely arithmetic instead of relying on a bizarre
62 algorithm involving a variety of C RTL time functions.
63 This has the side effect that UnixTime and FILETIME which
64 are both stored in UTC are interpretted as UTC throughout
65 the year. Windows will apply the same localization to AFS
66 as it does to NTFS. Applications which rely on the ability
67 to sync files between the two file systems will no longer
68 see the timestamps of files in AFS change an hour relative
69 to the files stored in NTFS or Windows based backup devices.
71 * Fixed a invalid memory access under a bizarre circumstance.
72 Windows will allow a physical mass media device to be
73 installed via Plug N Play to the system and will assign it
74 the lowest available drive letter. This is true even if the
75 drive letter is currently assigned in the user session to
76 a network device via NET USE (or its equivalent.) When this
77 happens, queries sent to the CIFS server will contain invalid
78 data. This invalid data was not being caught by the AFS
79 Client Service and was resulting in a crash when Freelance
82 * Fixed a reference count error when registering callbacks
83 on a stat cache object if the callback was already registered
85 * Add a case to cm_Analyze() in order to handle the case where
86 cm_GetConnByMServers() returns CM_ERROR_NOSUCHVOLUME because
87 the server list for the volume is empty. In this case, force
88 an update of the volume info and retry.
90 * Insert a missing cm_EndCallbackGrantingCall() which could
91 result in threads waiting for a callback to complete to never
94 * In the persistent cache, there is a maximum number of volume
95 entries. Allow volume entries to be reused if the maximum
96 number have been allocated and their reference count is zero.
98 * If we already have a dead virtual connection object, don't
99 ignore the fact that additional dead vc objects must be taken
102 * Removed a deadlock condition introduced in the summer of 2004.
103 Do not hold mx locks around calls to RX functions including
104 rx_NewCall(). That is what reference counts on the rx_connection
107 * Fixed an initialization error in afslogon.dll which could
108 result in random behavior including a failure to terminate
109 the NPLogon function. (1.3.80b)
111 * Fixed an error preventing the use of SMB authentication
112 on Windows 2000. (1.3.80a)
115 * Updated CellServDB to Public CellServDB 16 Mar 2005
117 * Fixed DNS AFSDB queries to ensure that "csail" cannot be
118 misinterpretted as "csail.mit.edu" when the resolver
119 is configured to append ".mit.edu" to failed DNS queries.
121 * Fixed another case in which the client would replace connections
122 to the host when it was not necessary. In this case the
123 situation would occur if cryptall was on and the connections
124 were unauthenticated due to lack of an appropriate token.
126 * OpenAFS for Windows has failed to work at sites which are
127 utilizing a cross-realm trust between an MIT/Heimdal realm
128 and a multi-domain Windows forest when the workstation being
129 accessed is not located in the root domain. This is caused
130 by a bug in the workstation which was triggered after the
131 introduction of Windows 2003 Server. When the bug is triggered,
132 the workstation attempts to authenticate users to afsd_service.exe
133 by contacting the Domain Controller instead of using the
134 LSA loopback authentication mechanism.
136 One of the reasons this bug occurs is because the workstation
137 does not have a reliable way of knowing that the service whose
138 netbios name is "AFS" is located on the workstation. This will
139 be fixed starting in Longhorn Beta 1 by Microsoft. The
140 "BackConnectionHostNames" registry value will be used to
141 indicate that the authentications to that service name should
142 be performed using the loopback authentication mechanism.
144 In the meantime, when Logon Caching is enabled, we can force
145 afsd_service.exe to authenticate using the logon cache before
146 contacting the Domain Controller. This will work with both
147 password and smart card based logons.
149 * The allDown logic in cm_ConnByMServers() was wrong. The allDown
150 flag should not be cleared if a volume's server reference is
151 marked as "offline". In the case where all of the volume's
152 servers are either "down" or the volumes are "offline", we want
153 cm_Analyze() to process the condition as CM_ERROR_ALLOFFLINE
154 instead of as CM_ERROR_TIMEDOUT. In fact, CM_ERROR_TIMEDOUT
155 should never occur in practice.
157 In the case of CM_ERROR_ALLOFFLINE, cm_Analyze() will sleep for
158 5 seconds, clear the server down and volume busy flags, and
159 then force an update from the VLDB. This allows the client to
160 update the location of a volume if the reason for it being
161 marked offline is because it is being moved. Calls to
162 cm_ConnByMServers() will be retried either until success or
163 the RDRtimeout period is reached.
165 * Correct the Power Management code behavior in response to
166 Standby, Suspend, and Shutdown events. Instead of flushing the
167 buffers associated with the mounted SMB submounts, simply write
168 all buffers which are marked dirty.
170 * Added support for "TheseCells" to afslogon.dll. "TheseCells"
171 provides a list of cells other than the default cell for which
172 tokens should be obtained using the default Kerberos principal.
173 This functionality is logon domain specific and is only available
174 when using KFW for authentication.
176 * Fixed FindNext Invalid Handle error caused by over agressive
177 attempts at garbage collecting dirSearch entries when the
178 dirSearch ID wraps from the maximum value to 1.
180 * Add support for registry defined server preferences for VLDB and
181 File servers. See registry.txt for details.
183 * Increased default cache size to 96MB and default number of cache
186 * Fixed refCount leaks related to directory lookups and pioctl calls.
188 * Callbacks revoked during a race condition with an attempt to
189 obtain the same callback no longer result in an inaccessible
192 * New command line tool:
194 afsdacl : Set or reset the DACL to allow starting or stopping
195 the afsd service by any ordinary user.
197 Usage : afsdacl [-set | -reset] [-show]
199 -reset : Reset the DACL
200 -show : Show current DACL (SDSF)
202 * IP addresses are no longer queried once at startup. Instead IP
203 addresses are obtained as needed. Loopback adapter addresses are
204 no longer published to the server.
206 * Pay attention to the MIT KFW registry configuration for automatic
207 importation of MSLSA credentials. (SOFTWARE\MIT\Leash32,MsLsaImport)
209 * Fix (once again) case-sensitive comparisons which was apparently
212 * Activate support for vos listvol -format
214 * Population of the "AFS Client Admins" group failed on non-English
215 versions of Windows because the name of the "Administrators" group
216 is localized. Now we lookup the name of the group by using the
217 Administrators Group Alias Relative ID.
219 * Multiple cell token acquisition within afscreds.exe was broken in the
220 case of Kerberos 5 cross realm authentication. Instead of contacting
221 the KDC associated with the cell's realm, afscreds would obtain a
222 token from the KDC of the user's realm. This would result in
223 "invalid kvno errors" while authenticating to the AFS servers.
224 Unauthenticated access would work. The symptoms would vary based upon
225 whether or not the VLDB servers had been contacted using unauthenticated
226 connections prior to the user obtaining tokens.
228 * The list of ACL entries was becoming corrupted. It appears as if
229 an ACL when it expires was not being appropriately cleaned up. In
230 fact, it was left in the list of ACLs associated with the scache
233 * Changed the default @sys name list to "x86_win32 i386_w2k i386_nt40"
234 for 32-bit x86 systems. The default for itanium will be "ia64_win64"
235 and "amd64_win64" for amd 64-bit processors.
237 * When executing executables, Windows provides a mechanisms by which
238 the normal search for DLLs can be bypassed. If a file foo.exe is
239 being executed and there exists a file or directory "foo.exe.local"
240 (the contents are ignored if a file), then Windows will search for
241 DLLs first in the "foo.exe.local" directory and second in the
242 directory in which the "foo.exe" file is located.
244 Previous releases of OAFW would improperly return
245 STATUS_NOT_A_DIRECTORY instead of the expected
246 STATUS_OBJECT_PATH_NOT_FOUND. This would cause the Windows SMB client
247 to terminate the search for the DLL causing the execution of the
250 * Rework the reference counting of smb_vc_t objects. The references
251 stored in the waiting locks were not counted. This could result in
252 an assertion if the reference count drops to zero.
254 * "fs wscell" returns "Freelance.Local.Root" for the workstation cell
255 when running in freelance mode.
257 * Added support for persistent caching of file contents, stat entries,
258 volume data, cell data, and name lookup data. When the registry
259 value, "NonPersistentCaching", is not defined or set to 0 the file
260 specified by "CachePath" becomes a persistent cache file. The
261 size of the cache file is computed at run time. It has a maximum
262 size of approximately 1.2GB. The contents of the file will be
263 validated according to the rules specified by the "ValidateCache"
266 * Added support for UUIDs. UUIDs are kept for as long as the
267 cache file is intact.
269 * Added cmdebug.exe and support cache manager debugging callback
270 interfaces in afsd_service.exe.
272 Usage: cmdebug -servers <server machine> [-port <IP port>] [-long]
273 [-addrs] [-cache] [-help]
274 Where: -long print all info
275 -addrs print only host interfaces
276 -cache print only cache configuration
278 * Symlinks to \\AFS\[all\]... will now be treated the same as
279 symlinks to /afs/.... However, please use /afs/... as otherwise
280 the symlinks won't work on Unix.
282 * Correct a problem with local CellID allocation for cells whose
283 server list is obtained via DNS instead of a CellServDB file. If
284 the DNS information expires the CellID assigned to the entry will
285 be changed. This causes all of the cm_scache_t objects which refer
286 to the old cellID number to become useless. Attempts to access
287 files or directories with cm_scache_t objects using the old cellID
288 will fail since the server list cannot be obtained.
290 * Correct deadlock condition in cm_EndCallbackGrantingCall which can
291 be triggered if the volume referenced by the cm_scache_t object is
294 * The AFS Service needs to respond to SERVICE_ACCEPT_SHUTDOWN messages
295 in addition to SERVICE_ACCEPT_STOP.
297 * Move RPC shutdown until after the SMB and RX shutdown procedures
298 complete. Block until RPC shutdown is complete.
300 * Modify afslogon.dll (integrated logon) to wait for service if its
301 state is START_PENDING. If the timeout period occurs, reset to
302 the retry interval and not the sleep interval.
304 * When renewing the server list for a cell obtained via DNS AFSDB
305 records, the cm_cell_t entry must be removed from the list of all
306 cells. Otherwise, the list of cells will be corrupted.
308 * In the dcache and scache modules, use the cm_scache_t dataVersion
309 instead of the cm_fakeDirVersion.
311 * Synchronize fs.c with the unix version.
313 * The variable used to determine whether a file or virtual memory
314 mapped cache is used was not properly initialized to a default
315 value. If the registry setting "NonPersistentCaching" was not
316 set, the choice would be random. Properly initialized to be
319 * The memory mapped view was never unmapped before closing the file
320 at service shutdown. This is now properly cleaned up.
322 * Default location of Cache file is now %TEMP%\AFSCache
326 * A bug affecting new installations of 1.3.75/76 would result in
327 the creating of incorrect mountpoints in the freelance root.afs
328 volume for the default cell.
330 If "fs \\afs\all\<cellname>" lists a volume name of "root" instead
331 of "root.cell", you have been affected by the bug. To correct the
332 problem, execute the following commands:
334 fs rmmount \\afs\all\<cellname>
335 fs rmmount \\afs\all\.<cellname>
337 fs mkmount \\afs\all\<cellname> root.cell <cellname>
338 fs mkmount \\afs\all\.<cellname> root.cell <cellname> -rw
342 * A bug has been fixed in the auto-generation of Freelance root.afs
343 symlinks which produced random entries in the \\AFS\all directory.
345 * Support has been added for multi-homed servers
348 * Added a new registry value, "StoreAnsiFilenames", which can be used
349 to force the use of ANSI character sets instead of OEM Code Pages.
350 This feature is useful when users require the ability to create
351 filenames with 8-bit characters and need to access the files from
352 both Latin-1 based Unix systems as well as from Windows.
354 Activation of this feature will prevent access to files stored with
355 8-bit OEM characters.
357 * Shutdown all SMB threads in a synchronized manner when stopping the
360 * There is currently a maximum cache size of 1.3GB. The limit is imposed
361 by the largest contiguous block of unused memory within the 2GB process
362 space which can be assigned to the memory mapped file. Unfortunately,
363 when the executable digital signature verification code is activated
364 Windows sees fit to further segment the process memory which in turn
365 reduces the size of the maximum cache file to less then 800MB. If
366 larger cache sizes are desired, a new registry value should be set:
368 HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client (DWORD) "VerifyServiceSignature" = 0x0
370 Setting this value will disable the runtime verification of digital
371 signatures on afsd_service.exe and the afs dlls which it loads. It
372 will not disable the the version number check on those same files.
373 The signature verification is not a security messure and is only meant
374 to enhance the ability to afsd_service.exe to detect potential
375 destablizing mixtures of DLLs from incompatible distributions.
377 Added code to auto-disable the signature verification check if
378 the desired cache size is greater then 700MB.
380 * Windows' WinTrustVerify(WIN_SPUB_ACTION_PUBLISHED_SOFTWARE) is
381 used to verify the validity of the afsd_service.exe binary
382 as well as each of the AFS DLLs loaded by the service. Not only
383 must the digital signature be valid but the signatures of the
384 DLL must be signed by the same entity as the service.
386 * Implement new functions: cm_freelanceMountPointExists and
387 cm_freelanceSymlinkExists. Use them along with other validity
388 checks in cm_freelanceAddMount and cm_freelanceAddSymlink to
389 ensure that name collisions do not occur and that empty strings
390 are not valid file names.
392 A symlink may not have a name which would resolve to a valid
393 cell name. Doing so would prevent access to the cell.
395 * Add missing cm_HoldSCacheNoLock call to Freelance mount point
396 re-initialization code. The reference counts of the fake root.afs
397 volume scache object(s) would become invalid when the mount point
398 or symlink lists were altered.
400 * Add registry entries to provide mappings from the afsdsbmt.ini
401 to the new locations for applications which count on the use
402 of the old Profile file APIs. These apps are likely to fail
403 if the user does not have administrator privileges and the
404 registry is locked down.
406 * The afs_config.exe submounts dialog had two errors.
407 First, attempts to remove entries failed because the registry
408 key was being opened without KEY_WRITE privileges.
409 Second, when editing a submount entry, changing the name
410 would add a new key and leave the original one in place.
411 Now the original submount will be removed if its name is
414 * In recent months there have been several incidents in which
415 users have experienced problems starting or accessing
416 afsd_service.exe and after significant effort has been spent
417 it has turned out that they have two versions of AFS on the
418 machine or an inconsistent set of DLLs.
420 Code has now been added to afsd_service.exe which will walk
421 the list of modules loaded by afsd_service.exe and validate
422 that the version of the AFS DLLs matches the version of the
423 afsd_service.exe executable. If they do not match the service
426 * When Freelance mode is enabled and there is no registry
427 key HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Freelance, afsd_service.exe
428 will attempt to import the afs_freelance.ini file contents.
429 If the file does not exist, it was creating a dummy file
430 with a r/o and r/w entry for the default cell and then
431 importing those values.
433 This process has been changed. The temporary file is no
434 longer created. Also, both the OpenAFS Client install
435 directory as well as %WINDIR% are checked for previous
436 afs_freelance.ini files.
438 * Added support for VL_GetEntryByNameN(). Still need to add
439 support for VL_GetEntryByNameU() for multi-homed support.
441 * Fix a deadlock situation in afscreds.exe when canceling an
442 auto-generated Obtain Tokens dialog
445 * Fix the locking of objects during Directory Searches in the
446 SMB/CIFS server. The failure to properly lock the reference
447 counts was resulting in the premature freeing of smb_dirSearch_t
448 objects while they were still in use by the SMB/CIFS client.
449 This does not solve the "Invalid Handle" problem.
451 * Fix Find Cell By Name pioctl call to return a valid cell
452 name for the Freelance fake root.afs volume.
453 "Freelance.Local.Root".
455 * Fix the Explorer Shell Extension Symlinks->Add operation.
456 The dialog template was missing and the link destination
457 string was too short.
459 * Add support for symlinks to Freelance root.afs volume
460 Stored at HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Freelance\Symlinks
461 <number> = "<linkname>:<relative-path>."
462 Use symlink.exe to create, list, or remove
464 * Remove the fallback to the use of KFW's KRB4 library when obtaining
465 tokens. We never obtain KRB4 tickets.
467 * Fix AFS Client Configuration Control Panel to support new SysName
470 * Fix a bug in afsd_service.exe which could result in the SysName
471 not being read from the registry.
474 * Add code to block the issuance of AFS tokens by aklog.exe or
475 afscreds.exe when the Kerberos 5 principal name contains a dot.
477 * Modify the IsAdmin() function to always treat the local SYSTEM
478 account as an AFS client administrator. Affects fs.exe and
481 * Modify the internal handling of Quota Exceeded errors
483 * Upgrade all reference count fields in the Windows cache manager
484 and the osi library to use unsigned long instead of signed short.
485 A similar fix has been applied to the afs rpc (rx) library.
487 * fix the Windows cache manager to prevent it from replacing the
488 rx_connection object associated with the cm_conn_t object on each
489 and every operation if "fs crypt" was set. This explains the
490 dramatic performance difference when crypt is used vs clear.
491 The problem: 'cryptall', a boolean flag indicating whether or not
492 "fs crypt" is set, was being compared to the rx_connection
493 cryptlevel which is either rxkad_clear:0 or rxkad_crypt:2.
494 1 != 2 and therefore the rx_connection was always destroyed
495 and replaced on each and every operation.
497 Lock the cm_conn_t object around every call to RXAFS_xxxx functions.
498 It is not safe for the cm_conn_t object to not be locked because
499 rx_DestroyConnection might be called from another thread if:
500 - the user's tokens have changed or expired
501 - the crypt mode has changed
503 This fix appears to have also taken care of the problems associated
504 with Overlapped Writes resulting in Delayed Write errors.
506 * fix NSIS installer's AdminGroup.exe to properly create and
507 remove groups when given -create or -remove. The string comparison
510 * fs sysname now accepts a list of sysname values
512 * added a new registry value HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client "IoctlDebug"
513 DWORD which when set to a non-zero value will cause error message
514 text to be output to stderr from the pioctl() routine. Useful in
515 debugging failures of fs.exe, tokens.exe, etc.
517 * added a test to the power management code to only perform a
518 flush operation if there is at least one network adapter which
519 is not a loopback adapter.
521 * Fix bug in loading of registry value HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
522 "EnableKFW". This value will not be read if the key
523 HKCU\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client exists; even if the "EnableKFW"
524 value under that key does not.
526 * provide mechanisms to force the use of krb524d for Kerberos 5
527 ticket to AFS token conversion. For afslogon.dll and afscreds.exe
528 there is a new registry value "Use524" and for aklog.exe a new
529 command line parameter "-m".
531 * Fix the pattern matching algorithm to properly match patterns
534 * smb_ReceiveCoreRename() was factored to produce smb_Rename()
535 which is used by both the original function and the new
536 smb_ReceiveNTRename(). smb_ReceiveNTRename() supports the
537 creation of HardLinks in addition to Renaming. smb_Link()
538 is a new function which creates HardLinks via cm_Link().
539 cm_Link() is a new vnodeops function which creates links
542 smb_ReceiveNTRename() does not support the File Copy and
543 Move Cluster Information operations described in its interface.
544 ReceiveNTRename is under documented in CIFS-TR-1p00_FINAL.pdf.
546 * When opening files via symlinks, we should follow the symlinks
547 until we reach the actual file stat cache entry. The stat cache
548 entry of the file should then be stored in the FID instead of
549 stat scache entry of the symlink.
551 * return bad operation errors for all unimplemented functions
552 even if we do not know the functions exist.
554 * Log bad packets and unknown operation packets to the trace log
556 * Map CM_ERROR_BADOP to STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED instead of
559 * Update list of known CIFS operations to include all those listed
560 in CIFS-TR-1p00_FINAL.pdf.
562 * Modify the handling of HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Submounts
563 to support the REG_EXPAND_SZ type.
566 * A new Windows authorization group "AFS Client Admins" is now
567 created and populated with the members of the "Administrators"
568 group. The group is used to determine which accounts on the
569 machine may be used to modify the AFS Client Configuration via
570 the UI and command line tools. afs_config.exe, fs.exe,
572 * Modify the WinLogon Logoff Event Handler to query NT4 domain
573 controllers for the remote profile path if Active Directory
574 services are not available.
576 * Fix aklog.exe to not add the AFS ID to the username
578 * PTS registration of new users to foreign cells has been added to
581 * The cm_Daemon thread is used to perform checks for
582 down servers, up servers, volumes, callback expirations,
583 lock maintenance and token expiration. Due to a gaff in
584 larger integer division the thread never performed any
585 work. Instead the current time computation would always
586 be less then the trigger times. This had an adverse affect
587 on the client's ability to maintain communication with servers,
588 keep volumes up to date, and flush user tokens and acls
589 when they have expired. This was broken when the 1.3 branch
590 was modified to support VC7 which no longer included
593 * An initialization problem with the Freelance code was
594 detected while fixing the callbackRequest. The cm_rootSCachep
595 object is obtained during afsd_InitDaemons() but the callback
596 information is incomplete. The callback information will not
597 be obtained until cm_MergeStatus is called from within
598 cm_GetCallback. Unfortunately, cm_SyncOp did not properly
599 test for the conditions under which the callback information
602 * Reports have been filed indicating that callbacks were
603 being lost. An examination of the code indicated that the
604 cm_server_t objects were not being properly reference
605 counted by the cm_scache_t and cm_callbackRequest_t objects.
606 In particular, the cm_server_t objects may have been freed
607 from beneath the cm_conn_t objects.
609 All of the reference counting is now done via the functions:
614 this improves the ability to track the referrals.
616 Each cm_BeginCallbackGranting Call now allocates a reference
617 to the cm_server_t. The cm_EndCallbackGrantingCall either
618 frees the reference or transfers it to the cm_scache_t
619 cbServerp field. These are then appropriately tracked
620 through the cm_Analyze call.
622 * Ensure that the dnlc hash table is the same size as the
623 dir name hash table (as per original author's note).
624 Increase the dnlc CM_AFSNCNAMESIZE to a multiple of 8
625 for compatibility with 64-bit systems.
627 * fix smb_ApplyV3DirListPatches to properly apply the hidden
628 attribute to dotfiles when the infoLevel < 0x101 and
629 cm_SyncOp has failed.
631 * Fix the Freelance registry initialization code. There
632 was a possibility that some systems could end up with
633 garbage in the registry during a clean install.
636 * file and directory names beginning with "." will now be given the
637 hidden attribute when the volume access is anonymous. this matches
638 the behavior when the volume access is via an authenticated user.
640 * Added a change monitor to the HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Freelance
641 key. When a change occurs mark the root.afs data as invalid and
642 for it to be reloaded on the next access. This allows administrators
643 to modify the mount point list without restarting the service.
645 The freelance client used to provide a fake modification time for
646 the root.afs volume data and its mount points of 7/09/2001 14:24 EDT.
647 Added code to extract the last modification time of the Freelance
648 registry key and use that instead. The time now represents the
649 most recent mount point change.
651 * PTS registration of new users to foreign cells has been added to
654 * Additional Cache Control and Credential Manager options have been
655 added to the WiX installer. See deployment guide for details.
657 * The CachePath setting is now optionally a REG_EXPAND_SZ type
659 * The WiX installer has been upgraded. Version 2.0.1927.1 is now
662 * The loopback installation code may have had a problem updating the
663 %ETC%\HOSTS file which could have resulted in a premature failure.
664 Work around code has been added for the case where the file cannot
667 * The default max chunksize was increased from 15 (32K) to 17 (128K)
668 because Windows sends 64K blocks when using overlapped writes.
670 * The default number of server threads was increased from 4 to 25 to
671 better handle overlapped writes.
673 * The "AfscredsShortcutParams" registry value was not being properly
674 loaded by afscreds.exe. Therefore, the default value was always being
675 used instead of the value set by the installer.
677 * Windows XP provides downgrade attack detection to prevent an attacker
678 from being able to force the use of NTLM simply by disrupting
679 communication with the KDC. This attack cannot exist between the
680 Windows CIFS client and the AFS Client Service. Therefore, when a
681 downgrade has been detected the afs pioctl library will force the
682 establishment of a new CIFS connection using NTLM.
684 * A locking error was discovered surrounding all references to volume
685 server lists within the cm_cell.c source file.
687 * The logged into Windows username was incorrect on Terminal Server
690 * A new registry value "NonPersistentCaching" was added to the service
691 parameters key. When set to a non-zero value, the afs cache is stored
692 in the Windows paging file. There are two limitations to choosing
694 1. when persistent caching is implemented it won't work with
695 this flag set since there will be nothing to persist.
696 2. with this flag set the initial paging allocation cannot be
697 changed while the service is running
699 * An initialization bug was discovered in aklog.exe which affected users
700 who have a domain name for their afs servers which could not be mapped
704 * afs_config.exe now validates cell names against DNS in addition
705 to the CellServDB file.
707 * In order to allow the freelance client to connect to a volume with ID
708 equal to 1 on the default cell we changed the fake root.afs volume ID
709 once again. This time we choose 0xFFFFFFFF. In addition, we change
710 the cell ID of the fake root.afs volume from 1 to 0xFFFFFFFF as well.
711 It will now be impossible for a volume ID to match that of another
712 cell unless the client is connected to 0xFFFFFFFD cells. That should
713 be enough room for growth.
715 * Fix "fs mkmount" command to work with UNC paths and when
716 started from non-AFS drives. It is now possible to create a mount
717 point in the freelance fake root.afs volume with the command
719 fs mkmount \\AFS\all\<directory-name> <volume-name> <cellname>
723 fs mkmount \\AFS\all\openafs.org root.cell openafs.org
724 fs mkmount \\AFS\all\.openafs.org root.cell openafs.org -rw
726 * The algorithm used to re-attempt access to the servers associated with
727 a volume has been altered to properly address the case in which all
728 servers have been marked down. The previous algorithm did not reset
729 the server's down flags so the servers were never actually retried.
730 This caused a problem with active volumes if the network connectivity
731 was lost as could be the case with a network cable removal, wireless
732 drop, or laptop hibernation. With the fix volume access is restored
733 almost instantenously when network connectivity becomes available.
735 * Support for SMB/CIFS browsing has been added to the AFS Client Service
736 SMB server. It is now possible to use "NET VIEW \\AFS" to obtain a
737 listing of AFS submounts and freelance mount points. Support for
738 NETSHAREENUM, NETSHAREGETINFO, NETSERVERENUM2, NETSERVERGETINFO
739 significantly enhances the behavior of AFS volumes within the Explorer
740 Shell. For instance, "AFS" now shows up as server in the Explorer
741 with each submount or freelance mount point visible as a share.
742 The right click menu in each folder now works with full functionality
743 on a consistent basis.
745 * The network provider can be configured to have different behavior
746 depending on the domain that the user logs into. These settings are
747 only relevant when using integrated login. A domain refers to an
748 Active Directory (AD) domain, a trusted Kerberos (non-AD) realm or the
749 local machine (i.e. local account logins). The domain name that is
750 used for selecting the domain would be the domain that is passed into
751 the NPLogonNotify function of the network provider. (see registry.txt
754 * Added a new registry value [HKCU\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client]
755 "Authentication Cell" which may be used to specify a default
756 authentication cell for afscreds.exe which is different from
757 the default cell for the AFS Client Service daemon.
759 * Added a Logoff WinLogon Event Notification function to afslogon.dll.
760 afslogon.dll moved to %WINDIR%\System32\.
761 New registry entries added to register the dll for Winlogon events.
763 The logoff event will now force a call to ktc_ForgetAllTokens()
764 using the context of the user being logged off as long as the
765 user's profile is not loaded from within AFS. If the profile
766 was loaded from AFS we can't release the tokens since the Logoff
767 event is triggered prior to the profile being written back to
768 the its source location. This is now performed in an XP SP2
771 * Windows XP SP2 Internet Connection Firewall interoperability
774 * The %WINDIR%\afsdsbmt.ini contains four sections:
775 Submounts, Drive Mappings, Active Maps and CSC Policies.
776 The Submounts and CSC policies are now stored in the registry under
777 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Submounts]
778 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\CSCPolicy]
779 The Drive Mappings and Active Maps are stored in the registry under
780 [HKCU\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Mappings]
781 [HKCU\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Active Maps]
783 There is no automatic migration of this data as it would be impossible
784 to consistently migrate data to user profiles which may not be active
785 when the machine is updated.
787 * The %WINDIR%\afs_freelance.ini contains lists of mountpoints for the
788 fake root.afs volume. For the same reasons as for the cellservdb file,
789 this information should not be in %WINDIR%. This information is now
790 kept under the registry key
791 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Freelance]
793 The data from the afs_freelance.ini file will be automatically
794 migrated to the registry on first execution of afsd_service.exe
796 * Keeping the CellServDB file in the location %WINDIR%\afsdcell.ini is
797 troublesome for several reasons. One, it is confusing for those who
798 expect the file to be named "CellServDB" instead of "afsdcell.ini".
799 Two, this file is not a Windows Profile formatted file. Three,
800 applications should not be reading or writing to %WINDIR%. It causes
801 problems for Windows Terminal Server.
803 The new location of CellServDB will be the OpenAFS Client install
804 directory which is by default C:\Program Files\OpenAFS\Client and can
805 be determined by querying the registry for
806 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\TransarcCorporation\AFS Client\CurrentVersion]PathName
808 The existing afsdcell.ini will be migrated by the NSIS installer.
809 The Wix installer must still be updated to do the same.
811 * Change NSIS installer to use DNS by default; to remove Integrated Logon
812 High Security mode; and to add Terminal Services compatibility registry
813 entries to allow the OpenAFS tools to find the afsdcell.ini and other
814 configuration files in %WINDIR%.
816 * Add support for authenticated SMB connections. This will remove
817 the need for high security mode in most situations. Both NTLM
818 and Extended Security (GSS SPNEGO) modes are supported. Effectively,
819 only NTLM can be used even though Kerberos is now supported. The
820 reason is that it is not possible to construct a service principal
821 which is unique to each individual machine.
823 SMB Extended Auth does not work on XP SP2 unless one of two registry
824 modifications are made:
826 (1) To disable the check for matching host names on loopback connections
827 set this key. This does not require a reboot:
829 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa]
830 "DisableLoopbackCheck"=dword:00000001
832 (2) To add the AFS SMB/CIFS service name to an approved list. This
833 does require a reboot:
835 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\MSV1_0]
836 "BackConnectionHostNames"=multi-sz "AFS" "MACHINE-AFS"
838 afsd_service.exe will automatically add the current Netbios Name
839 to the BackConnectionHostNames list and then temporarily disable
840 the loopback check for one cycle of startup/shutdown of the service.
841 We assume most folks do not start/stop without a reboot so this
842 will be adequate in most cases.
844 * Fix security hole in afslogon.dll which allowed passwords to be
845 sent in clear text to the KDC in a misformed principal name.
847 * Fix cm_GetCell() to properly handle expired dns entries
850 * If Freelance mode is active and the afs_freelance.ini
851 file does not exist, do not create an empty file.
852 Instead create a file containing ro and rw mountpoints
853 to the default cell using the standard conventions.
855 * Modify the Freelance support to handle the ability
856 to create rw mount points in the fake root.afs volume.
858 * Changed the RPC mechanism used for token setting from
859 named pipes to local. Use of named pipes can be restored
860 by setting the environment variable AFS_RPC_PROTSEQ to
863 Named pipes were required when a Windows 9x system was
864 using a NT system in gateway mode which is incompatible
865 with our use of local loopback adapters.
867 * In afscreds.exe, if a username of the form user@REALM is
868 specified and no password is specified, do not perform a
869 kinit operation. Only perform the aklog functionality.
871 * Add a new registry value which allows the number of processors
872 on which afsd_service.exe executes to be restricted. Valid
873 values are 1..numOfProcessors
875 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAfsDaemon\Parameters
879 * A second MSI based installer option is now available.
881 * Fixed Kerberos 5 kinit functionality in afscreds.exe to properly
882 request tickets for user/instance@REALM instead of just user@REALM
884 * Modify the Power Management Notify routine to wait for the Hard Dead
885 timeout period instead of a fixed 19 seconds. With the longer timeout
886 periods Hibernation and Standby could never succeed when network
887 connectivity is not available.
889 * The following fs.exe commands are now restricted to Administrator:
890 - checkservers with a non-zero timer value
893 - sysname with a new sysname list
902 setting the default sysname for a machine should be done via the
903 registry and not via "fs sysname".
905 * NSIS installer adds options to install Debugging Symbols
906 and the Microsoft Loopback Adapter; the user is now also
907 given the ability to select the afscreds.exe startup options.
909 * Build system modified to generate symbols for FREE (aka RELEASE)
910 builds as well as CHECKED (aka DEBUG) builds
912 * Sites which have a volume ID of 0x20000001 assigned to their
913 root.cell volumes have been experiencing problems with accessing
914 the root.cell volume of their cell when Freelance mode has been
915 active. This was because 0x20000001 was assigned to the fake
916 root.afs volume created by freelance. The fake volume id is
917 now set to 0x00000001 to prevent conflicts.
919 * The timeout logic in the AFS Client Service has been wrong
920 for sometime. It is based on two different assumptions.
921 First, the SMB client timeout is a fix value as was the case
922 with OS/2 Lan Manager. This assumption is incorrect. The
923 SMB timeout in Windows is a dynamic value computed based upon
924 a fixed minimum timeout to which is added time based upon the
925 size of the request and the performance characteristics of
926 the connection. Second, it is the responsibility of the
927 SMB Server to enforce the timeout requirements of the client.
928 This is untrue. The SMB Server cannot be expected to know
929 the requirements of the client. More importantly, if the
930 SMB server uses the SMB client timeout as a value to restrict
931 its behavior as an RX client, the performance characteristics
932 of the local SMB session would be used to prematurely terminate
933 WAN connections with significantly different performance
936 The timeout logic has therefore been modified in the following
938 . the Lan Manager Workstation (SMB) Session Timeout is used only
939 as a basis for configuring the Connection Dead Timeout
940 and Hard Dead Timeout values. The Connection Dead Timeout
941 must be at least 15 seconds longer than the SMB Timeout
942 and the Hard Dead Timeout must be at least double the
943 Connection Dead Timeout.
944 . New registry entries have been added to allow the Connection
945 Dead Timeout and Hard Dead Timeout values independent of the
946 Lan Manager Workstation Session Timeout
947 . The test to enforce the SMB Client Timeout has been removed.
949 One of the side-effects of removing the enforcement of the SMB
950 Client Timeout is that regardless of whether or not the SMB client
951 is available to receive the response (and how would the SMB server
952 know) the RX protocol response can be used to update the AFS
953 Client Service state for ready access by future SMB client
956 This should be the end of the "Server paused or restarting messages"
958 * Add support for arbitrary UNC paths to the pioctl() support.
959 This enables the fs commands as well as the AFS Shell Extension
960 to work correctly when UNC paths are being used.
962 * Fix afscreds.exe (by updating afskfw.lib) to search for cells via
963 DNS if the cell configuration cannot be determined via CellServDB
965 * Add debug info to test whether CM_BUF_WAITING or CM_SCACHE_WAITING
966 are ever set more than once at a time
968 * Fix the management of lists of cm_cell_t structures when using
969 DNS to lookup cell information. The previous code would fail to
970 reuse the same cellID for a cell if DNS was used more than once
971 for a given cell name. When the ttl expired, a single cm_cell_t
972 could be inserted into the cm_allCellsp list more than once
973 producing a loop. In addition, the vlServerp list belonging to
974 the cell was not freed resulting in improper refCounting of the
977 * Add DNS support to cm_IoctlNewCell() which previous only examined
980 * Add cm_FreeServer() function and call it from cm_FreeServerList()
981 to properly garbage collect cm_server_t objects
983 * Add numVCs variable to smb.c to track the number of smb_vc_t
984 objects created and use it to initialize the vcID field which
985 previously was set to 0 in all objects resulting in FindByID
988 * Fixed DNS lookups to work consistently throughout the OpenAFS
989 product instead of just from within the afsd_service.exe
991 * Added a runtime check to ensure that AFS Client Service SMB
992 Server is accepting connections before attempting to mount
995 * Read IP addresses for volume servers out of the CellServDB
996 file if gethostbyname() on the hostname fails.
998 * Fix getcellconfig() to populate both the Hostnames as well
999 as IP addresses when loading cell data via DNS
1001 * Increase the Connection Dead Time to 50 from 20 seconds
1002 Increase the Hard Dead Time to 120 from 40 seconds
1003 (matches the Unix values)
1005 * Fixed an assertion validating the number of allocated NCBs
1007 * Fixed the build environment to consistently build for
1008 Windows 2000 and above. (APPVER = 5.0)
1010 * Fixed rx_debug to properly validate the receipt in incoming
1011 data with select() and recvfrom(). Do not copy data out of
1012 the socket buffer unless success is indicated.
1015 * afsd_service.exe will now display a message box to the
1016 desktop when it terminates due to an IP Address Change.
1018 * installer no longer deletes AFS Server configuration data
1021 * installer generates a warning dialog if the RPC service
1022 is not properly configured
1024 * installer compressed with lzma instead of bzip2
1026 * afsd_service.exe shutdown crash solved once and for all
1028 * reference counting of smb_vc_t data structures improved
1030 * name space collision of smb_fid_t event objects corrected
1032 * the output of "fs memdump" is now written to
1033 %WINDIR%\TEMP\afsd_alloc.log
1035 * the file TaAfsApp_1033.dll is now properly installed allowing
1036 the User Manager to start
1038 * a new algorithm is used for computing filename pattern matches
1040 * afscreds.exe now accepts user names containing instance
1043 * Fix the Directory Name Lookup Cache to be case-sensitive.
1044 This is crucial in environments in which a Windows client
1045 is accessing a directory with more than one filename that
1046 differs only by case. If the directory contains "FOO"
1047 and "Foo". You want "DEL Foo" to delete the correct one.
1048 We still have a problem in that "DEL foo" will delete a
1049 random filename. This will be addressed in a future release.
1051 * Fix afscreds.exe -M option (renewMaps) to work when High
1052 Security mode is off. Also, remember to disable the ActiveMap
1053 flag in afsdsbmt.ini when a drive mapping is removed.
1055 * Updates to NSIS installer script. AFS Server configuration
1056 data will not be destroyed on un-install or re-install.
1057 Use a better compression algorithm.
1059 * afslogon.dll now uses KFW to obtain tokens when available
1061 * afslogon.dll when given an all uppercase username will
1062 attempt to authenticate with both the uppercase name
1063 and an all lowercase variation
1065 * DST modification removed. The fix appears to make things
1066 worse after a reboot of the machine.
1068 * fs.exe: added "cscpolicy" which is used to
1069 change client side caching policy for AFS shares
1071 Usage: fs cscpolicy [-share <AFS share>] [-manual] [-programs]
1072 [-documents] [-disable] [-help]
1074 * Several uninitialized variables have been initialized
1076 * It is now possible to obtain tokens using cross realm
1077 Kerberos within afscreds.exe:
1079 user: jaltman@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
1081 Will obtain a cross realm ticket for jaltman/DEMENTIA.ORG@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
1082 will will in turn be used to obtain afs@DEMENTIA.ORG.
1083 The resulting token will be stored with the display name
1084 jaltman@ATHENA.MIT.EDU@dementia.org
1086 * aklog.exe has been added to the client
1088 Usage: aklog [-d] [[-cell | -c] cell [-k krb_realm]]
1089 [[-p | -path] pathname]
1093 -d gives debugging information.
1094 krb_realm is the kerberos realm of a cell.
1095 pathname is the name of a directory to which you wish to authenticate.
1096 -noprdb means don't try to determine AFS ID.
1097 -5 or -4 selects whether to use Kerberos V or Kerberos IV.
1098 (default is Kerberos V)
1099 No commandline arguments means authenticate to the local cell.
1102 * All of the resource files have been restructured to adhere to
1103 a set of rules IBM implemented for loading string resources.
1104 These rules had either been forgotten or were not discovered
1105 by folks working on the OpenAFS sources. The end result was
1106 memory corruption. This is primary item which was preventing
1107 the AFS Server from working.
1109 * Increased the size of the maximum ticket size stored in a token
1110 from 344 bytes to 12,000. Increased the buffers used to convey
1111 messages between the pioctl() caller and the SMB Server from
1112 1000 bytes to 12,512. The code appeared to have been writing
1113 above the top of the stack by quite a few number of bytes.
1114 (The increased ticket size is necessary for the next item.)
1116 * When obtaining AFS Tokens via KFW, krb524 is no longer required.
1117 Instead the raw Kerberos 5 ticket is used in its entirety. This
1118 is extremely important as it allows us to use pure Kerberos 5 KDCs
1119 as the source of the AFS authentication. The use of up to 12,000 byte
1120 tickets will allow tickets produced by all versions of Microsoft
1121 Active Directory to be used.
1122 - create a user account.
1123 - designate it DES only
1125 - specify its UPN to be "afs@realm"
1126 - assign a SPN of "afs/cellname" to the UPN with setspn.exe
1128 * Do not enforce the funky 8dot3 pattern matching rule that the first "."
1129 is special when using long file names. (you must use "*.*" and not "*")
1130 Instead only enforce it when performing 8dot3 searches.
1132 * Fixed the DST problem with creation times being set one hour ahead
1134 * Fixed the problem when using \\afs\cell-alias. For example,
1135 \\afs\uncc instead of \\afs\uncc.edu. Do not a new cell struct
1136 for the alias name; instead simply expand the name. One of the
1137 symptoms of this problem was a loss of acquired tokens.
1139 * Fixed the AFS Shell Extension. The Symbolic Link menu was empty
1140 of strings. (Only English strings provided.)
1142 * Fixed the installer to properly replace in use files.
1144 * Fixed the build system to cleanup generated component version files
1146 * The release build compiled with MSVC 6.0 compiler to avoid the
1147 afsd_service.exe shutdown crash. This does not solve the problem
1148 but simply avoids it for the time being.
1152 * fix afslogon.dll to not corrupt memory when High Security mode
1155 * fix afsd_service.exe to not attempt to restore the stack when
1156 an exception occurs. (not safe in multi-threaded programs)
1158 * fix uninstaller to properly remove the CRT and MFC DLLs
1160 * remove a Message Box from afscreds.exe when getcellconfig()
1161 fails on a kerberos realm which is not a cell
1163 The following is a list of changes to the OpenAFS for Window client
1166 * "fs setserverprefs" will leave afsd service deadlocked
1168 * "vos listaddrs" will core dump
1170 * installer sets the appropriate keys to support Integrated Logon
1172 * installer disables the "Find Lana by Name" functionality as it
1173 was causing headaches for many users
1175 * fix the intermittent crash of the power management thread when
1176 shutting down the AFS Client Service
1178 * optimizes the obtain drive mount list functionality which is
1179 executed every time the mount tab in afscreds.exe and afs_config.exe
1180 are refreshed. (this happens a lot)
1182 * fix the service shutdown logic. add the STOP_PENDING state
1183 and do not accept additional service events after we declare
1186 The following is a list of changes to the OpenAFS for Window client
1189 * flexelint was run against the source tree and hundreds (perhaps
1190 thousands) of corrections were applied to ensure prototypes
1191 were in use; types were used consistently; variables were
1192 initialized; unused variables were removed; etc.
1194 * A wide variety of instrumentation was added including the
1195 ability to produce a stack trace from within afsd_service.exe
1198 * Dynamic configuration of the RDRtimeout value based upon the
1199 LanMan Workstation Session Timeout
1201 * The mount root no longer needs to be called "/afs". This
1202 is now set by a registry value "MountRoot" within the key
1203 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAFSDaemon\Parameters
1205 * The cell list is now only read out of afsdcell.ini when the
1206 file changes instead of each time a cell is resolved.
1208 * Thread synchronization was added to cm_server.c and ktc_nt.c
1210 * All calls to GlobalAlloc()/GlobalFree() were replaced with
1211 calloc()/free(). The Global functions were needed on Windows 3.x
1212 but have caused a variety of problems on the Win32 platforms.
1213 Avoiding them is highly recommended by several Microsoft
1214 Knowledgebase articles
1216 * Support for Symbolic Links added to the AFS Shell Extension
1218 * Added a registry value "OverlayEnabled" to determine if
1219 Shell Extension Overlays should be enabled.
1220 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAFSDaemon\Parameters
1222 * New Build system to support VC6, VC.NET, VC.NET2003 compilers and
1223 separate trees for checked and free builds. Build system supports
1224 a custom directory src\WINNT\extra which can be used as a grafting
1225 location of organization specific additions to the build tree.
1227 * New installer built using NSIS 2.0.
1229 * Named all kernel objects in order to allow them to be monitored
1230 with tools such as SysInternals' ProcExp.exe.
1232 * Introduced new EventLog framework for AFSD
1234 * Introduced Power Management interface to AFSD for Standby and
1235 Hibernate modes to allow cache to be flushed prior to network
1238 * Utilize Win32 DNSQuery API instead of internal routines. This
1239 allows DNS SRV queries to be sent to all current domain name
1240 servers. Not just one specified in an INI file. DNS is now
1243 * "NetbiosName" registry value may be used to specify a fixed
1244 Netbios Name such as "AFS" to be used instead of "HOSTNAME-AFS"
1245 when the loopback adapter is in use. If you need to use the
1246 old notation with a loopback adapter installed specify a registry
1249 "NetbiosName" REG_EXPAND_SZ = "%COMPUTERNAME%-AFS"
1251 * Refactor all modules which depend on LAN Adapter and NetbiosName
1252 determination in a new library: lanahelper.lib. This allows for
1253 consistent behavior throughout the product.
1255 * Move the afsd.log and afsd_init.log files to the directory specified
1256 by the "TEMP" environment variable. This is usually %WINDIR%\TEMP
1257 for services. Added the Date to the log entries.
1259 * New registry value "RxMaxMTU" used to limit the size of the RX
1260 packets sent by the AFS Client Service to the Server. In order
1261 to enable OpenAFS to work across the Cisco IPSec VPN the packet
1262 size must be restricted to 1264 or smaller. The latest NSIS
1263 installer sets a value of 1260 by default.
1265 * New registry value "RxNoJumbo" to disable the use of Jumbo Rx
1266 packets. This is not needed in order to work across the Cisco
1267 VPN but might be needed for other network environments. This
1268 value is not set by the NSIS installer.
1270 * New registry value "HideDotFiles" is used to apply the Hidden
1271 attribute to files whose names begin with a '.'. This value
1272 is set by the NSIS installer.
1274 * New registry value "MaxMpxRequests" allows the maximum number
1275 of multiplexed sessions to be configured at run time. This
1276 value is not set by the NSIS installer. The default value is
1279 * New registry value "MaxVCPerServer" allows the maxmimum number
1280 of VCs per server to be configured at run time. This value is
1281 not set by the NSIS installer. The default value is 100.
1283 * New registry value "AllSubmount" allows the "all" submount to
1284 be disabled by setting its value to 0x00.
1286 * Allow cells names to be valid mount points
1287 \\<netbiosName>\<cellname>
1289 * Store the active state of drive mappings in order for afscreds.exe
1290 to restore them upon startup
1292 * Add exception handling to generate a Stack Trace to the afsd_init.log
1293 file if one happens to occur.
1295 * Add lots of logging to help detect the cause of invalid SMB packets
1297 * Enable Kerberos for Windows to be used to obtain AFS Tokens via
1298 conversion of Kerberos 5 "afs" service tickets. Supports auto-
1299 renewal of expiring tokens as long as afscreds.exe is running.
1301 * New afscreds.exe command line options:
1303 -M = renew drive maps
1304 -N = ip address change detection
1307 * New registry value "EnableKFW" in {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
1308 determines whether or not MIT Kerberos for Windows should be used
1309 to obtain tokens via Kerberos 5 tickets.
1311 * New registry value "AfscredsShortcutParams" in
1312 {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
1313 determines the command line parameters to be specified when "fixing"
1314 the AFS Shortcut in the user's startup folder.
1316 * The "ShowTrayIcon" registry value has been moved from
1317 HKLM\Software\TransarcCorporation\AFS Client\AfsCreds to
1318 {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
1320 * The <cell name> registry values used to store the token expiration
1321 reminders have been moved from
1322 HKLM\Software\TransarcCorporation\AFS Client\AfsCreds to
1323 {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Reminders
1325 * Obtain the Logon User Name from the Explorer key when available
1327 * new text document doc\txt\winnotes\registry.txt lists all registry
1328 values used by OpenAFS (excluding the AFS Server)
1330 * BUG: rx_securityClass objects were not properly reference
1331 counted and were never freed.
1333 * BUG: reduce the number of conditions under which CM_ERROR_TIMEOUT
1334 would be generated. The existence of a server does not imply
1335 that it is not down. If all of the servers for a cell are down
1336 return CM_ERROR_NOSUCHVOLUME instead. This prevents the Explorer
1339 * BUG: the directory name lookup cache failed to free the entries
1340 in the cache when the name cache entries cycled. The entries
1341 in the cache would become dereferenced without being freed.
1343 * BUG: fs setserverprefs could be executed without Administrator
1346 * BUG: the number of allocated NCB objects (100) exceeded the number
1347 which could actually be waited upon by the kernel (64). Any objects
1348 which were utilized above the limit could never have event completions
1351 * BUG: smb_username_t objects were not being reference counted and
1352 were not properly freed.
1354 * BUG: smb_tid_t objects could under unusual circumstances be freed
1355 before they were no longer referenced.
1357 * BUG: smb_fid_t object pointer were frequently used even when
1358 their value could be NULL. They were not properly released and
1359 therefore they were never freed.
1361 * BUG: smb_packet_t data structures were not completely initialized
1364 * BUG: when Rx produces a CM_ERROR_NOIPC error do not return "Access
1365 Denied" because that causes the Explorer Shell to try again until
1366 access is obtained. Instead return "Remote Resources" which allows
1367 the shell to move on and treat the error as transient.
1369 * BUG: when initializing the NCBreturns structure, separate Event objects
1370 were created for each NCB although a single Event object was supposed
1371 to be shared by all.
1373 * BUG: smb_dirSearch_t objects were not being properly referenced counted
1376 * BUG: smb_tran2Packet_t objects were not being properly referenced
1379 * BUG: directory path creation did not handle the case of multiple
1380 directories requiring creation in one attempt
1382 * BUG: SMB requests which required an Extended Response were ignored.
1383 This prevented some files from being written to AFS volumes.
1385 * BUG: character strings were being freed even after they were
1386 inserted into in use data structures
1388 * BUG: inconsistent usernames were used when High Security mode was
1389 enabled. (there is still much to do in this area)
1391 * BUG: pioctl() calls which require out of band RPC operations were
1392 susceptible to race conditions when performed by multiple processes
1394 * BUG: memory allocation and deallocation crossed instances of the
1395 C Runtime Library producing memory leakage and corruption in
1396 afscreds and the client configurator.
