2 * The WinLogon Event Handlers for "Startup" and "Logoff" have been
3 removed at the very last moment due to problems caused with the
4 final release version of XP SP2. This means that tokens will
5 not be destroyed on logoff. The code is not being removed it
6 is simply not going to be enabled.
8 * file and directory names beginning with "." will now be given the
9 hidden attribute when the volume access is anonymous. this matches
10 the behavior when the volume access is via an authenticated user.
12 * Added a change monitor to the HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Freelance
13 key. When a change occurs mark the root.afs data as invalid and
14 for it to be reloaded on the next access. This allows administrators
15 to modify the mount point list without restarting the service.
17 The freelance client used to provide a fake modification time for
18 the root.afs volume data and its mount points of 7/09/2001 14:24 EDT.
19 Added code to extract the last modification time of the Freelance
20 registry key and use that instead. The time now represents the
21 most recent mount point change.
23 * PTS registration of new users to foreign cells has been added to
26 * Additional Cache Control and Credential Manager options have been
27 added to the WiX installer. See deployment guide for details.
29 * The CachePath setting is now optionally a REG_EXPAND_SZ type
31 * The WiX installer has been upgraded. Version 2.0.1927.1 is now
34 * The loopback installation code may have had a problem updating the
35 %ETC%\HOSTS file which could have resulted in a premature failure.
36 Work around code has been added for the case where the file cannot
39 * The default max chunksize was increased from 15 (32K) to 17 (128K)
40 because Windows sends 64K blocks when using overlapped writes.
42 * The default number of server threads was increased from 4 to 25 to
43 better handle overlapped writes.
45 * The "AfscredsShortcutParams" registry value was not being properly
46 loaded by afscreds.exe. Therefore, the default value was always being
47 used instead of the value set by the installer.
49 * Windows XP provides downgrade attack detection to prevent an attacker
50 from being able to force the use of NTLM simply by disrupting
51 communication with the KDC. This attack cannot exist between the
52 Windows CIFS client and the AFS Client Service. Therefore, when a
53 downgrade has been detected the afs pioctl library will force the
54 establishment of a new CIFS connection using NTLM.
56 * A locking error was discovered surrounding all references to volume
57 server lists within the cm_cell.c source file.
59 * The logged into Windows username was incorrect on Terminal Server
62 * A new registry value "NonPersistentCaching" was added to the service
63 parameters key. When set to a non-zero value, the afs cache is stored
64 in the Windows paging file. There are two limitations to choosing
66 1. when persistent caching is implemented it won't work with
67 this flag set since there will be nothing to persist.
68 2. with this flag set the initial paging allocation cannot be
69 changed while the service is running
71 * An initialization bug was discovered in aklog.exe which affected users
72 who have a domain name for their afs servers which could not be mapped
76 * afs_config.exe now validates cell names against DNS in addition
77 to the CellServDB file.
79 * In order to allow the freelance client to connect to a volume with ID
80 equal to 1 on the default cell we changed the fake root.afs volume ID
81 once again. This time we choose 0xFFFFFFFF. In addition, we change
82 the cell ID of the fake root.afs volume from 1 to 0xFFFFFFFF as well.
83 It will now be impossible for a volume ID to match that of another
84 cell unless the client is connected to 0xFFFFFFFD cells. That should
85 be enough room for growth.
87 * Fix "fs mkmount" command to work with UNC paths and when
88 started from non-AFS drives. It is now possible to create a mount
89 point in the freelance fake root.afs volume with the command
91 fs mkmount \\AFS\all\<directory-name> <volume-name> <cellname>
95 fs mkmount \\AFS\all\openafs.org root.cell openafs.org
96 fs mkmount \\AFS\all\.openafs.org root.cell openafs.org -rw
98 * The algorithm used to re-attempt access to the servers associated with
99 a volume has been altered to properly address the case in which all
100 servers have been marked down. The previous algorithm did not reset
101 the server's down flags so the servers were never actually retried.
102 This caused a problem with active volumes if the network connectivity
103 was lost as could be the case with a network cable removal, wireless
104 drop, or laptop hibernation. With the fix volume access is restored
105 almost instantenously when network connectivity becomes available.
107 * Support for SMB/CIFS browsing has been added to the AFS Client Service
108 SMB server. It is now possible to use "NET VIEW \\AFS" to obtain a
109 listing of AFS submounts and freelance mount points. Support for
110 NETSHAREENUM, NETSHAREGETINFO, NETSERVERENUM2, NETSERVERGETINFO
111 significantly enhances the behavior of AFS volumes within the Explorer
112 Shell. For instance, "AFS" now shows up as server in the Explorer
113 with each submount or freelance mount point visible as a share.
114 The right click menu in each folder now works with full functionality
115 on a consistent basis.
117 * The network provider can be configured to have different behavior
118 depending on the domain that the user logs into. These settings are
119 only relevant when using integrated login. A domain refers to an
120 Active Directory (AD) domain, a trusted Kerberos (non-AD) realm or the
121 local machine (i.e. local account logins). The domain name that is
122 used for selecting the domain would be the domain that is passed into
123 the NPLogonNotify function of the network provider. (see registry.txt
126 * Added a new registry value [HKCU\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client]
127 "Authentication Cell" which may be used to specify a default
128 authentication cell for afscreds.exe which is different from
129 the default cell for the AFS Client Service daemon.
131 * Added a Logoff WinLogon Event Notification function to afslogon.dll.
132 afslogon.dll moved to %WINDIR%\System32\.
133 New registry entries added to register the dll for Winlogon events.
135 The logoff event will now force a call to ktc_ForgetAllTokens()
136 using the context of the user being logged off as long as the
137 user's profile is not loaded from within AFS. If the profile
138 was loaded from AFS we can't release the tokens since the Logoff
139 event is triggered prior to the profile being written back to
140 the its source location.
142 * Windows XP SP2 Internet Connection Firewall interoperability
145 * The %WINDIR%\afsdsbmt.ini contains four sections:
146 Submounts, Drive Mappings, Active Maps and CSC Policies.
147 The Submounts and CSC policies are now stored in the registry under
148 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Submounts]
149 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\CSCPolicy]
150 The Drive Mappings and Active Maps are stored in the registry under
151 [HKCU\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Mappings]
152 [HKCU\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Active Maps]
154 There is no automatic migration of this data as it would be impossible
155 to consistently migrate data to user profiles which may not be active
156 when the machine is updated.
158 * The %WINDIR%\afs_freelance.ini contains lists of mountpoints for the
159 fake root.afs volume. For the same reasons as for the cellservdb file,
160 this information should not be in %WINDIR%. This information is now
161 kept under the registry key
162 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Freelance]
164 The data from the afs_freelance.ini file will be automatically
165 migrated to the registry on first execution of afsd_service.exe
167 * Keeping the CellServDB file in the location %WINDIR%\afsdcell.ini is
168 troublesome for several reasons. One, it is confusing for those who
169 expect the file to be named "CellServDB" instead of "afsdcell.ini".
170 Two, this file is not a Windows Profile formatted file. Three,
171 applications should not be reading or writing to %WINDIR%. It causes
172 problems for Windows Terminal Server.
174 The new location of CellServDB will be the OpenAFS Client install
175 directory which is by default C:\Program Files\OpenAFS\Client and can
176 be determined by querying the registry for
177 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\TransarcCorporation\AFS Client\CurrentVersion]PathName
179 The existing afsdcell.ini will be migrated by the NSIS installer.
180 The Wix installer must still be updated to do the same.
182 * Change NSIS installer to use DNS by default; to remove Integrated Logon
183 High Security mode; and to add Terminal Services compatibility registry
184 entries to allow the OpenAFS tools to find the afsdcell.ini and other
185 configuration files in %WINDIR%.
187 * Add support for authenticated SMB connections. This will remove
188 the need for high security mode in most situations. Both NTLM
189 and Extended Security (GSS SPNEGO) modes are supported. Effectively,
190 only NTLM can be used even though Kerberos is now supported. The
191 reason is that it is not possible to construct a service principal
192 which is unique to each individual machine.
194 SMB Extended Auth does not work on XP SP2 unless one of two registry
195 modifications are made:
197 (1) To disable the check for matching host names on loopback connections
198 set this key. This does not require a reboot:
200 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa]
201 "DisableLoopbackCheck"=dword:00000001
203 (2) To add the AFS SMB/CIFS service name to an approved list. This
204 does require a reboot:
206 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\MSV1_0]
207 "BackConnectionHostNames"=multi-sz "AFS" "MACHINE-AFS"
209 afsd_service.exe will automatically add the current Netbios Name
210 to the BackConnectionHostNames list and then temporarily disable
211 the loopback check for one cycle of startup/shutdown of the service.
212 We assume most folks do not start/stop without a reboot so this
213 will be adequate in most cases.
215 * Fix security hole in afslogon.dll which allowed passwords to be
216 sent in clear text to the KDC in a misformed principal name.
218 * Fix cm_GetCell() to properly handle expired dns entries
221 * If Freelance mode is active and the afs_freelance.ini
222 file does not exist, do not create an empty file.
223 Instead create a file containing ro and rw mountpoints
224 to the default cell using the standard conventions.
226 * Modify the Freelance support to handle the ability
227 to create rw mount points in the fake root.afs volume.
229 * Changed the RPC mechanism used for token setting from
230 named pipes to local. Use of named pipes can be restored
231 by setting the environment variable AFS_RPC_PROTSEQ to
234 Named pipes were required when a Windows 9x system was
235 using a NT system in gateway mode which is incompatible
236 with our use of local loopback adapters.
238 * In afscreds.exe, if a username of the form user@REALM is
239 specified and no password is specified, do not perform a
240 kinit operation. Only perform the aklog functionality.
242 * Add a new registry value which allows the number of processors
243 on which afsd_service.exe executes to be restricted. Valid
244 values are 1..numOfProcessors
246 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAfsDaemon\Parameters
250 * A second MSI based installer option is now available.
252 * Fixed Kerberos 5 kinit functionality in afscreds.exe to properly
253 request tickets for user/instance@REALM instead of just user@REALM
255 * Modify the Power Management Notify routine to wait for the Hard Dead
256 timeout period instead of a fixed 19 seconds. With the longer timeout
257 periods Hibernation and Standby could never succeed when network
258 connectivity is not available.
260 * The following fs.exe commands are now restricted to Administrator:
261 - checkservers with a non-zero timer value
264 - sysname with a new sysname list
273 setting the default sysname for a machine should be done via the
274 registry and not via "fs sysname".
276 * NSIS installer adds options to install Debugging Symbols
277 and the Microsoft Loopback Adapter; the user is now also
278 given the ability to select the afscreds.exe startup options.
280 * Build system modified to generate symbols for FREE (aka RELEASE)
281 builds as well as CHECKED (aka DEBUG) builds
283 * Sites which have a volume ID of 0x20000001 assigned to their
284 root.cell volumes have been experiencing problems with accessing
285 the root.cell volume of their cell when Freelance mode has been
286 active. This was because 0x20000001 was assigned to the fake
287 root.afs volume created by freelance. The fake volume id is
288 now set to 0x00000001 to prevent conflicts.
290 * The timeout logic in the AFS Client Service has been wrong
291 for sometime. It is based on two different assumptions.
292 First, the SMB client timeout is a fix value as was the case
293 with OS/2 Lan Manager. This assumption is incorrect. The
294 SMB timeout in Windows is a dynamic value computed based upon
295 a fixed minimum timeout to which is added time based upon the
296 size of the request and the performance characteristics of
297 the connection. Second, it is the responsibility of the
298 SMB Server to enforce the timeout requirements of the client.
299 This is untrue. The SMB Server cannot be expected to know
300 the requirements of the client. More importantly, if the
301 SMB server uses the SMB client timeout as a value to restrict
302 its behavior as an RX client, the performance characteristics
303 of the local SMB session would be used to prematurely terminate
304 WAN connections with significantly different performance
307 The timeout logic has therefore been modified in the following
309 . the Lan Manager Workstation (SMB) Session Timeout is used only
310 as a basis for configuring the Connection Dead Timeout
311 and Hard Dead Timeout values. The Connection Dead Timeout
312 must be at least 15 seconds longer than the SMB Timeout
313 and the Hard Dead Timeout must be at least double the
314 Connection Dead Timeout.
315 . New registry entries have been added to allow the Connection
316 Dead Timeout and Hard Dead Timeout values independent of the
317 Lan Manager Workstation Session Timeout
318 . The test to enforce the SMB Client Timeout has been removed.
320 One of the side-effects of removing the enforcement of the SMB
321 Client Timeout is that regardless of whether or not the SMB client
322 is available to receive the response (and how would the SMB server
323 know) the RX protocol response can be used to update the AFS
324 Client Service state for ready access by future SMB client
327 This should be the end of the "Server paused or restarting messages"
329 * Add support for arbitrary UNC paths to the pioctl() support.
330 This enables the fs commands as well as the AFS Shell Extension
331 to work correctly when UNC paths are being used.
333 * Fix afscreds.exe (by updating afskfw.lib) to search for cells via
334 DNS if the cell configuration cannot be determined via CellServDB
336 * Add debug info to test whether CM_BUF_WAITING or CM_SCACHE_WAITING
337 are ever set more than once at a time
339 * Fix the management of lists of cm_cell_t structures when using
340 DNS to lookup cell information. The previous code would fail to
341 reuse the same cellID for a cell if DNS was used more than once
342 for a given cell name. When the ttl expired, a single cm_cell_t
343 could be inserted into the cm_allCellsp list more than once
344 producing a loop. In addition, the vlServerp list belonging to
345 the cell was not freed resulting in improper refCounting of the
348 * Add DNS support to cm_IoctlNewCell() which previous only examined
351 * Add cm_FreeServer() function and call it from cm_FreeServerList()
352 to properly garbage collect cm_server_t objects
354 * Add numVCs variable to smb.c to track the number of smb_vc_t
355 objects created and use it to initialize the vcID field which
356 previously was set to 0 in all objects resulting in FindByID
359 * Fixed DNS lookups to work consistently throughout the OpenAFS
360 product instead of just from within the afsd_service.exe
362 * Added a runtime check to ensure that AFS Client Service SMB
363 Server is accepting connections before attempting to mount
366 * Read IP addresses for volume servers out of the CellServDB
367 file if gethostbyname() on the hostname fails.
369 * Fix getcellconfig() to populate both the Hostnames as well
370 as IP addresses when loading cell data via DNS
372 * Increase the Connection Dead Time to 50 from 20 seconds
373 Increase the Hard Dead Time to 120 from 40 seconds
374 (matches the Unix values)
376 * Fixed an assertion validating the number of allocated NCBs
378 * Fixed the build environment to consistently build for
379 Windows 2000 and above. (APPVER = 5.0)
381 * Fixed rx_debug to properly validate the receipt in incoming
382 data with select() and recvfrom(). Do not copy data out of
383 the socket buffer unless success is indicated.
386 * afsd_service.exe will now display a message box to the
387 desktop when it terminates due to an IP Address Change.
389 * installer no longer deletes AFS Server configuration data
392 * installer generates a warning dialog if the RPC service
393 is not properly configured
395 * installer compressed with lzma instead of bzip2
397 * afsd_service.exe shutdown crash solved once and for all
399 * reference counting of smb_vc_t data structures improved
401 * name space collision of smb_fid_t event objects corrected
403 * the output of "fs memdump" is now written to
404 %WINDIR%\TEMP\afsd_alloc.log
406 * the file TaAfsApp_1033.dll is now properly installed allowing
407 the User Manager to start
409 * a new algorithm is used for computing filename pattern matches
411 * afscreds.exe now accepts user names containing instance
414 * Fix the Directory Name Lookup Cache to be case-sensitive.
415 This is crucial in environments in which a Windows client
416 is accessing a directory with more than one filename that
417 differs only by case. If the directory contains "FOO"
418 and "Foo". You want "DEL Foo" to delete the correct one.
419 We still have a problem in that "DEL foo" will delete a
420 random filename. This will be addressed in a future release.
422 * Fix afscreds.exe -M option (renewMaps) to work when High
423 Security mode is off. Also, remember to disable the ActiveMap
424 flag in afsdsbmt.ini when a drive mapping is removed.
426 * Updates to NSIS installer script. AFS Server configuration
427 data will not be destroyed on un-install or re-install.
428 Use a better compression algorithm.
430 * afslogon.dll now uses KFW to obtain tokens when available
432 * afslogon.dll when given an all uppercase username will
433 attempt to authenticate with both the uppercase name
434 and an all lowercase variation
436 * DST modification removed. The fix appears to make things
437 worse after a reboot of the machine.
439 * fs.exe: added "cscpolicy" which is used to
440 change client side caching policy for AFS shares
442 Usage: fs cscpolicy [-share <AFS share>] [-manual] [-programs]
443 [-documents] [-disable] [-help]
445 * Several uninitialized variables have been initialized
447 * It is now possible to obtain tokens using cross realm
448 Kerberos within afscreds.exe:
450 user: jaltman@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
452 Will obtain a cross realm ticket for jaltman/DEMENTIA.ORG@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
453 will will in turn be used to obtain afs@DEMENTIA.ORG.
454 The resulting token will be stored with the display name
455 jaltman@ATHENA.MIT.EDU@dementia.org
457 * aklog.exe has been added to the client
459 Usage: aklog [-d] [[-cell | -c] cell [-k krb_realm]]
460 [[-p | -path] pathname]
464 -d gives debugging information.
465 krb_realm is the kerberos realm of a cell.
466 pathname is the name of a directory to which you wish to authenticate.
467 -noprdb means don't try to determine AFS ID.
468 -5 or -4 selects whether to use Kerberos V or Kerberos IV.
469 (default is Kerberos V)
470 No commandline arguments means authenticate to the local cell.
473 * All of the resource files have been restructured to adhere to
474 a set of rules IBM implemented for loading string resources.
475 These rules had either been forgotten or were not discovered
476 by folks working on the OpenAFS sources. The end result was
477 memory corruption. This is primary item which was preventing
478 the AFS Server from working.
480 * Increased the size of the maximum ticket size stored in a token
481 from 344 bytes to 12,000. Increased the buffers used to convey
482 messages between the pioctl() caller and the SMB Server from
483 1000 bytes to 12,512. The code appeared to have been writing
484 above the top of the stack by quite a few number of bytes.
485 (The increased ticket size is necessary for the next item.)
487 * When obtaining AFS Tokens via KFW, krb524 is no longer required.
488 Instead the raw Kerberos 5 ticket is used in its entirety. This
489 is extremely important as it allows us to use pure Kerberos 5 KDCs
490 as the source of the AFS authentication. The use of up to 12,000 byte
491 tickets will allow tickets produced by all versions of Microsoft
492 Active Directory to be used.
493 - create a user account.
494 - designate it DES only
496 - specify its UPN to be "afs@realm"
497 - assign a SPN of "afs/cellname" to the UPN with setspn.exe
499 * Do not enforce the funky 8dot3 pattern matching rule that the first "."
500 is special when using long file names. (you must use "*.*" and not "*")
501 Instead only enforce it when performing 8dot3 searches.
503 * Fixed the DST problem with creation times being set one hour ahead
505 * Fixed the problem when using \\afs\cell-alias. For example,
506 \\afs\uncc instead of \\afs\uncc.edu. Do not a new cell struct
507 for the alias name; instead simply expand the name. One of the
508 symptoms of this problem was a loss of acquired tokens.
510 * Fixed the AFS Shell Extension. The Symbolic Link menu was empty
511 of strings. (Only English strings provided.)
513 * Fixed the installer to properly replace in use files.
515 * Fixed the build system to cleanup generated component version files
517 * The release build compiled with MSVC 6.0 compiler to avoid the
518 afsd_service.exe shutdown crash. This does not solve the problem
519 but simply avoids it for the time being.
523 * fix afslogon.dll to not corrupt memory when High Security mode
526 * fix afsd_service.exe to not attempt to restore the stack when
527 an exception occurs. (not safe in multi-threaded programs)
529 * fix uninstaller to properly remove the CRT and MFC DLLs
531 * remove a Message Box from afscreds.exe when getcellconfig()
532 fails on a kerberos realm which is not a cell
534 The following is a list of changes to the OpenAFS for Window client
537 * "fs setserverprefs" will leave afsd service deadlocked
539 * "vos listaddrs" will core dump
541 * installer sets the appropriate keys to support Integrated Logon
543 * installer disables the "Find Lana by Name" functionality as it
544 was causing headaches for many users
546 * fix the intermittent crash of the power management thread when
547 shutting down the AFS Client Service
549 * optimizes the obtain drive mount list functionality which is
550 executed every time the mount tab in afscreds.exe and afs_config.exe
551 are refreshed. (this happens a lot)
553 * fix the service shutdown logic. add the STOP_PENDING state
554 and do not accept additional service events after we declare
557 The following is a list of changes to the OpenAFS for Window client
560 * flexelint was run against the source tree and hundreds (perhaps
561 thousands) of corrections were applied to ensure prototypes
562 were in use; types were used consistently; variables were
563 initialized; unused variables were removed; etc.
565 * A wide variety of instrumentation was added including the
566 ability to produce a stack trace from within afsd_service.exe
569 * Dynamic configuration of the RDRtimeout value based upon the
570 LanMan Workstation Session Timeout
572 * The mount root no longer needs to be called "/afs". This
573 is now set by a registry value "MountRoot" within the key
574 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAFSDaemon\Parameters
576 * The cell list is now only read out of afsdcell.ini when the
577 file changes instead of each time a cell is resolved.
579 * Thread synchronization was added to cm_server.c and ktc_nt.c
581 * All calls to GlobalAlloc()/GlobalFree() were replaced with
582 calloc()/free(). The Global functions were needed on Windows 3.x
583 but have caused a variety of problems on the Win32 platforms.
584 Avoiding them is highly recommended by several Microsoft
585 Knowledgebase articles
587 * Support for Symbolic Links added to the AFS Shell Extension
589 * Added a registry value "OverlayEnabled" to determine if
590 Shell Extension Overlays should be enabled.
591 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAFSDaemon\Parameters
593 * New Build system to support VC6, VC.NET, VC.NET2003 compilers and
594 separate trees for checked and free builds. Build system supports
595 a custom directory src\WINNT\extra which can be used as a grafting
596 location of organization specific additions to the build tree.
598 * New installer built using NSIS 2.0.
600 * Named all kernel objects in order to allow them to be monitored
601 with tools such as SysInternals' ProcExp.exe.
603 * Introduced new EventLog framework for AFSD
605 * Introduced Power Management interface to AFSD for Standby and
606 Hibernate modes to allow cache to be flushed prior to network
609 * Utilize Win32 DNSQuery API instead of internal routines. This
610 allows DNS SRV queries to be sent to all current domain name
611 servers. Not just one specified in an INI file. DNS is now
614 * "NetbiosName" registry value may be used to specify a fixed
615 Netbios Name such as "AFS" to be used instead of "HOSTNAME-AFS"
616 when the loopback adapter is in use. If you need to use the
617 old notation with a loopback adapter installed specify a registry
620 "NetbiosName" REG_EXPAND_SZ = "%COMPUTERNAME%-AFS"
622 * Refactor all modules which depend on LAN Adapter and NetbiosName
623 determination in a new library: lanahelper.lib. This allows for
624 consistent behavior throughout the product.
626 * Move the afsd.log and afsd_init.log files to the directory specified
627 by the "TEMP" environment variable. This is usually %WINDIR%\TEMP
628 for services. Added the Date to the log entries.
630 * New registry value "RxMaxMTU" used to limit the size of the RX
631 packets sent by the AFS Client Service to the Server. In order
632 to enable OpenAFS to work across the Cisco IPSec VPN the packet
633 size must be restricted to 1264 or smaller. The latest NSIS
634 installer sets a value of 1260 by default.
636 * New registry value "RxNoJumbo" to disable the use of Jumbo Rx
637 packets. This is not needed in order to work across the Cisco
638 VPN but might be needed for other network environments. This
639 value is not set by the NSIS installer.
641 * New registry value "HideDotFiles" is used to apply the Hidden
642 attribute to files whose names begin with a '.'. This value
643 is set by the NSIS installer.
645 * New registry value "MaxMpxRequests" allows the maximum number
646 of multiplexed sessions to be configured at run time. This
647 value is not set by the NSIS installer. The default value is
650 * New registry value "MaxVCPerServer" allows the maxmimum number
651 of VCs per server to be configured at run time. This value is
652 not set by the NSIS installer. The default value is 100.
654 * New registry value "AllSubmount" allows the "all" submount to
655 be disabled by setting its value to 0x00.
657 * Allow cells names to be valid mount points
658 \\<netbiosName>\<cellname>
660 * Store the active state of drive mappings in order for afscreds.exe
661 to restore them upon startup
663 * Add exception handling to generate a Stack Trace to the afsd_init.log
664 file if one happens to occur.
666 * Add lots of logging to help detect the cause of invalid SMB packets
668 * Enable Kerberos for Windows to be used to obtain AFS Tokens via
669 conversion of Kerberos 5 "afs" service tickets. Supports auto-
670 renewal of expiring tokens as long as afscreds.exe is running.
672 * New afscreds.exe command line options:
674 -M = renew drive maps
675 -N = ip address change detection
678 * New registry value "EnableKFW" in {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
679 determines whether or not MIT Kerberos for Windows should be used
680 to obtain tokens via Kerberos 5 tickets.
682 * New registry value "AfscredsShortcutParams" in
683 {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
684 determines the command line parameters to be specified when "fixing"
685 the AFS Shortcut in the user's startup folder.
687 * The "ShowTrayIcon" registry value has been moved from
688 HKLM\Software\TransarcCorporation\AFS Client\AfsCreds to
689 {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
691 * The <cell name> registry values used to store the token expiration
692 reminders have been moved from
693 HKLM\Software\TransarcCorporation\AFS Client\AfsCreds to
694 {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Reminders
696 * Obtain the Logon User Name from the Explorer key when available
698 * new text document doc\txt\winnotes\registry.txt lists all registry
699 values used by OpenAFS (excluding the AFS Server)
701 * BUG: rx_securityClass objects were not properly reference
702 counted and were never freed.
704 * BUG: reduce the number of conditions under which CM_ERROR_TIMEOUT
705 would be generated. The existence of a server does not imply
706 that it is not down. If all of the servers for a cell are down
707 return CM_ERROR_NOSUCHVOLUME instead. This prevents the Explorer
710 * BUG: the directory name lookup cache failed to free the entries
711 in the cache when the name cache entries cycled. The entries
712 in the cache would become dereferenced without being freed.
714 * BUG: fs setserverprefs could be executed without Administrator
717 * BUG: the number of allocated NCB objects (100) exceeded the number
718 which could actually be waited upon by the kernel (64). Any objects
719 which were utilized above the limit could never have event completions
722 * BUG: smb_username_t objects were not being reference counted and
723 were not properly freed.
725 * BUG: smb_tid_t objects could under unusual circumstances be freed
726 before they were no longer referenced.
728 * BUG: smb_fid_t object pointer were frequently used even when
729 their value could be NULL. They were not properly released and
730 therefore they were never freed.
732 * BUG: smb_packet_t data structures were not completely initialized
735 * BUG: when Rx produces a CM_ERROR_NOIPC error do not return "Access
736 Denied" because that causes the Explorer Shell to try again until
737 access is obtained. Instead return "Remote Resources" which allows
738 the shell to move on and treat the error as transient.
740 * BUG: when initializing the NCBreturns structure, separate Event objects
741 were created for each NCB although a single Event object was supposed
744 * BUG: smb_dirSearch_t objects were not being properly referenced counted
747 * BUG: smb_tran2Packet_t objects were not being properly referenced
750 * BUG: directory path creation did not handle the case of multiple
751 directories requiring creation in one attempt
753 * BUG: SMB requests which required an Extended Response were ignored.
754 This prevented some files from being written to AFS volumes.
756 * BUG: character strings were being freed even after they were
757 inserted into in use data structures
759 * BUG: inconsistent usernames were used when High Security mode was
760 enabled. (there is still much to do in this area)
762 * BUG: pioctl() calls which require out of band RPC operations were
763 susceptible to race conditions when performed by multiple processes
765 * BUG: memory allocation and deallocation crossed instances of the
766 C Runtime Library producing memory leakage and corruption in
767 afscreds and the client configurator.
