2 * file and directory names beginning with "." will now be given the
3 hidden attribute when the volume access is anonymous. this matches
4 the behavior when the volume access is via an authenticated user.
6 * Added a change monitor to the HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Freelance
7 key. When a change occurs mark the root.afs data as invalid and
8 for it to be reloaded on the next access. This allows administrators
9 to modify the mount point list without restarting the service.
11 The freelance client used to provide a fake modification time for
12 the root.afs volume data and its mount points of 7/09/2001 14:24 EDT.
13 Added code to extract the last modification time of the Freelance
14 registry key and use that instead. The time now represents the
15 most recent mount point change.
17 * PTS registration of new users to foreign cells has been added to
20 * Additional Cache Control and Credential Manager options have been
21 added to the WiX installer. See deployment guide for details.
23 * The CachePath setting is now optionally a REG_EXPAND_SZ type
25 * The WiX installer has been upgraded. Version 2.0.1927.1 is now
28 * The loopback installation code may have had a problem updating the
29 %ETC%\HOSTS file which could have resulted in a premature failure.
30 Work around code has been added for the case where the file cannot
33 * The default max chunksize was increased from 15 (32K) to 17 (128K)
34 because Windows sends 64K blocks when using overlapped writes.
36 * The default number of server threads was increased from 4 to 25 to
37 better handle overlapped writes.
39 * The "AfscredsShortcutParams" registry value was not being properly
40 loaded by afscreds.exe. Therefore, the default value was always being
41 used instead of the value set by the installer.
43 * Windows XP provides downgrade attack detection to prevent an attacker
44 from being able to force the use of NTLM simply by disrupting
45 communication with the KDC. This attack cannot exist between the
46 Windows CIFS client and the AFS Client Service. Therefore, when a
47 downgrade has been detected the afs pioctl library will force the
48 establishment of a new CIFS connection using NTLM.
50 * A locking error was discovered surrounding all references to volume
51 server lists within the cm_cell.c source file.
53 * The logged into Windows username was incorrect on Terminal Server
56 * A new registry value "NonPersistentCaching" was added to the service
57 parameters key. When set to a non-zero value, the afs cache is stored
58 in the Windows paging file. There are two limitations to choosing
60 1. when persistent caching is implemented it won't work with
61 this flag set since there will be nothing to persist.
62 2. with this flag set the initial paging allocation cannot be
63 changed while the service is running
65 * An initialization bug was discovered in aklog.exe which affected users
66 who have a domain name for their afs servers which could not be mapped
70 * afs_config.exe now validates cell names against DNS in addition
71 to the CellServDB file.
73 * In order to allow the freelance client to connect to a volume with ID
74 equal to 1 on the default cell we changed the fake root.afs volume ID
75 once again. This time we choose 0xFFFFFFFF. In addition, we change
76 the cell ID of the fake root.afs volume from 1 to 0xFFFFFFFF as well.
77 It will now be impossible for a volume ID to match that of another
78 cell unless the client is connected to 0xFFFFFFFD cells. That should
79 be enough room for growth.
81 * Fix "fs mkmount" command to work with UNC paths and when
82 started from non-AFS drives. It is now possible to create a mount
83 point in the freelance fake root.afs volume with the command
85 fs mkmount \\AFS\all\<directory-name> <volume-name> <cellname>
89 fs mkmount \\AFS\all\openafs.org root.cell openafs.org
90 fs mkmount \\AFS\all\.openafs.org root.cell openafs.org -rw
92 * The algorithm used to re-attempt access to the servers associated with
93 a volume has been altered to properly address the case in which all
94 servers have been marked down. The previous algorithm did not reset
95 the server's down flags so the servers were never actually retried.
96 This caused a problem with active volumes if the network connectivity
97 was lost as could be the case with a network cable removal, wireless
98 drop, or laptop hibernation. With the fix volume access is restored
99 almost instantenously when network connectivity becomes available.
101 * Support for SMB/CIFS browsing has been added to the AFS Client Service
102 SMB server. It is now possible to use "NET VIEW \\AFS" to obtain a
103 listing of AFS submounts and freelance mount points. Support for
104 NETSHAREENUM, NETSHAREGETINFO, NETSERVERENUM2, NETSERVERGETINFO
105 significantly enhances the behavior of AFS volumes within the Explorer
106 Shell. For instance, "AFS" now shows up as server in the Explorer
107 with each submount or freelance mount point visible as a share.
108 The right click menu in each folder now works with full functionality
109 on a consistent basis.
111 * The network provider can be configured to have different behavior
112 depending on the domain that the user logs into. These settings are
113 only relevant when using integrated login. A domain refers to an
114 Active Directory (AD) domain, a trusted Kerberos (non-AD) realm or the
115 local machine (i.e. local account logins). The domain name that is
116 used for selecting the domain would be the domain that is passed into
117 the NPLogonNotify function of the network provider. (see registry.txt
120 * Added a new registry value [HKCU\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client]
121 "Authentication Cell" which may be used to specify a default
122 authentication cell for afscreds.exe which is different from
123 the default cell for the AFS Client Service daemon.
125 * Added a Logoff WinLogon Event Notification function to afslogon.dll.
126 afslogon.dll moved to %WINDIR%\System32\.
127 New registry entries added to register the dll for Winlogon events.
129 The logoff event will now force a call to ktc_ForgetAllTokens()
130 using the context of the user being logged off as long as the
131 user's profile is not loaded from within AFS. If the profile
132 was loaded from AFS we can't release the tokens since the Logoff
133 event is triggered prior to the profile being written back to
134 the its source location. This is now performed in an XP SP2
137 * Windows XP SP2 Internet Connection Firewall interoperability
140 * The %WINDIR%\afsdsbmt.ini contains four sections:
141 Submounts, Drive Mappings, Active Maps and CSC Policies.
142 The Submounts and CSC policies are now stored in the registry under
143 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Submounts]
144 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\CSCPolicy]
145 The Drive Mappings and Active Maps are stored in the registry under
146 [HKCU\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Mappings]
147 [HKCU\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Active Maps]
149 There is no automatic migration of this data as it would be impossible
150 to consistently migrate data to user profiles which may not be active
151 when the machine is updated.
153 * The %WINDIR%\afs_freelance.ini contains lists of mountpoints for the
154 fake root.afs volume. For the same reasons as for the cellservdb file,
155 this information should not be in %WINDIR%. This information is now
156 kept under the registry key
157 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Freelance]
159 The data from the afs_freelance.ini file will be automatically
160 migrated to the registry on first execution of afsd_service.exe
162 * Keeping the CellServDB file in the location %WINDIR%\afsdcell.ini is
163 troublesome for several reasons. One, it is confusing for those who
164 expect the file to be named "CellServDB" instead of "afsdcell.ini".
165 Two, this file is not a Windows Profile formatted file. Three,
166 applications should not be reading or writing to %WINDIR%. It causes
167 problems for Windows Terminal Server.
169 The new location of CellServDB will be the OpenAFS Client install
170 directory which is by default C:\Program Files\OpenAFS\Client and can
171 be determined by querying the registry for
172 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\TransarcCorporation\AFS Client\CurrentVersion]PathName
174 The existing afsdcell.ini will be migrated by the NSIS installer.
175 The Wix installer must still be updated to do the same.
177 * Change NSIS installer to use DNS by default; to remove Integrated Logon
178 High Security mode; and to add Terminal Services compatibility registry
179 entries to allow the OpenAFS tools to find the afsdcell.ini and other
180 configuration files in %WINDIR%.
182 * Add support for authenticated SMB connections. This will remove
183 the need for high security mode in most situations. Both NTLM
184 and Extended Security (GSS SPNEGO) modes are supported. Effectively,
185 only NTLM can be used even though Kerberos is now supported. The
186 reason is that it is not possible to construct a service principal
187 which is unique to each individual machine.
189 SMB Extended Auth does not work on XP SP2 unless one of two registry
190 modifications are made:
192 (1) To disable the check for matching host names on loopback connections
193 set this key. This does not require a reboot:
195 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa]
196 "DisableLoopbackCheck"=dword:00000001
198 (2) To add the AFS SMB/CIFS service name to an approved list. This
199 does require a reboot:
201 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\MSV1_0]
202 "BackConnectionHostNames"=multi-sz "AFS" "MACHINE-AFS"
204 afsd_service.exe will automatically add the current Netbios Name
205 to the BackConnectionHostNames list and then temporarily disable
206 the loopback check for one cycle of startup/shutdown of the service.
207 We assume most folks do not start/stop without a reboot so this
208 will be adequate in most cases.
210 * Fix security hole in afslogon.dll which allowed passwords to be
211 sent in clear text to the KDC in a misformed principal name.
213 * Fix cm_GetCell() to properly handle expired dns entries
216 * If Freelance mode is active and the afs_freelance.ini
217 file does not exist, do not create an empty file.
218 Instead create a file containing ro and rw mountpoints
219 to the default cell using the standard conventions.
221 * Modify the Freelance support to handle the ability
222 to create rw mount points in the fake root.afs volume.
224 * Changed the RPC mechanism used for token setting from
225 named pipes to local. Use of named pipes can be restored
226 by setting the environment variable AFS_RPC_PROTSEQ to
229 Named pipes were required when a Windows 9x system was
230 using a NT system in gateway mode which is incompatible
231 with our use of local loopback adapters.
233 * In afscreds.exe, if a username of the form user@REALM is
234 specified and no password is specified, do not perform a
235 kinit operation. Only perform the aklog functionality.
237 * Add a new registry value which allows the number of processors
238 on which afsd_service.exe executes to be restricted. Valid
239 values are 1..numOfProcessors
241 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAfsDaemon\Parameters
245 * A second MSI based installer option is now available.
247 * Fixed Kerberos 5 kinit functionality in afscreds.exe to properly
248 request tickets for user/instance@REALM instead of just user@REALM
250 * Modify the Power Management Notify routine to wait for the Hard Dead
251 timeout period instead of a fixed 19 seconds. With the longer timeout
252 periods Hibernation and Standby could never succeed when network
253 connectivity is not available.
255 * The following fs.exe commands are now restricted to Administrator:
256 - checkservers with a non-zero timer value
259 - sysname with a new sysname list
268 setting the default sysname for a machine should be done via the
269 registry and not via "fs sysname".
271 * NSIS installer adds options to install Debugging Symbols
272 and the Microsoft Loopback Adapter; the user is now also
273 given the ability to select the afscreds.exe startup options.
275 * Build system modified to generate symbols for FREE (aka RELEASE)
276 builds as well as CHECKED (aka DEBUG) builds
278 * Sites which have a volume ID of 0x20000001 assigned to their
279 root.cell volumes have been experiencing problems with accessing
280 the root.cell volume of their cell when Freelance mode has been
281 active. This was because 0x20000001 was assigned to the fake
282 root.afs volume created by freelance. The fake volume id is
283 now set to 0x00000001 to prevent conflicts.
285 * The timeout logic in the AFS Client Service has been wrong
286 for sometime. It is based on two different assumptions.
287 First, the SMB client timeout is a fix value as was the case
288 with OS/2 Lan Manager. This assumption is incorrect. The
289 SMB timeout in Windows is a dynamic value computed based upon
290 a fixed minimum timeout to which is added time based upon the
291 size of the request and the performance characteristics of
292 the connection. Second, it is the responsibility of the
293 SMB Server to enforce the timeout requirements of the client.
294 This is untrue. The SMB Server cannot be expected to know
295 the requirements of the client. More importantly, if the
296 SMB server uses the SMB client timeout as a value to restrict
297 its behavior as an RX client, the performance characteristics
298 of the local SMB session would be used to prematurely terminate
299 WAN connections with significantly different performance
302 The timeout logic has therefore been modified in the following
304 . the Lan Manager Workstation (SMB) Session Timeout is used only
305 as a basis for configuring the Connection Dead Timeout
306 and Hard Dead Timeout values. The Connection Dead Timeout
307 must be at least 15 seconds longer than the SMB Timeout
308 and the Hard Dead Timeout must be at least double the
309 Connection Dead Timeout.
310 . New registry entries have been added to allow the Connection
311 Dead Timeout and Hard Dead Timeout values independent of the
312 Lan Manager Workstation Session Timeout
313 . The test to enforce the SMB Client Timeout has been removed.
315 One of the side-effects of removing the enforcement of the SMB
316 Client Timeout is that regardless of whether or not the SMB client
317 is available to receive the response (and how would the SMB server
318 know) the RX protocol response can be used to update the AFS
319 Client Service state for ready access by future SMB client
322 This should be the end of the "Server paused or restarting messages"
324 * Add support for arbitrary UNC paths to the pioctl() support.
325 This enables the fs commands as well as the AFS Shell Extension
326 to work correctly when UNC paths are being used.
328 * Fix afscreds.exe (by updating afskfw.lib) to search for cells via
329 DNS if the cell configuration cannot be determined via CellServDB
331 * Add debug info to test whether CM_BUF_WAITING or CM_SCACHE_WAITING
332 are ever set more than once at a time
334 * Fix the management of lists of cm_cell_t structures when using
335 DNS to lookup cell information. The previous code would fail to
336 reuse the same cellID for a cell if DNS was used more than once
337 for a given cell name. When the ttl expired, a single cm_cell_t
338 could be inserted into the cm_allCellsp list more than once
339 producing a loop. In addition, the vlServerp list belonging to
340 the cell was not freed resulting in improper refCounting of the
343 * Add DNS support to cm_IoctlNewCell() which previous only examined
346 * Add cm_FreeServer() function and call it from cm_FreeServerList()
347 to properly garbage collect cm_server_t objects
349 * Add numVCs variable to smb.c to track the number of smb_vc_t
350 objects created and use it to initialize the vcID field which
351 previously was set to 0 in all objects resulting in FindByID
354 * Fixed DNS lookups to work consistently throughout the OpenAFS
355 product instead of just from within the afsd_service.exe
357 * Added a runtime check to ensure that AFS Client Service SMB
358 Server is accepting connections before attempting to mount
361 * Read IP addresses for volume servers out of the CellServDB
362 file if gethostbyname() on the hostname fails.
364 * Fix getcellconfig() to populate both the Hostnames as well
365 as IP addresses when loading cell data via DNS
367 * Increase the Connection Dead Time to 50 from 20 seconds
368 Increase the Hard Dead Time to 120 from 40 seconds
369 (matches the Unix values)
371 * Fixed an assertion validating the number of allocated NCBs
373 * Fixed the build environment to consistently build for
374 Windows 2000 and above. (APPVER = 5.0)
376 * Fixed rx_debug to properly validate the receipt in incoming
377 data with select() and recvfrom(). Do not copy data out of
378 the socket buffer unless success is indicated.
381 * afsd_service.exe will now display a message box to the
382 desktop when it terminates due to an IP Address Change.
384 * installer no longer deletes AFS Server configuration data
387 * installer generates a warning dialog if the RPC service
388 is not properly configured
390 * installer compressed with lzma instead of bzip2
392 * afsd_service.exe shutdown crash solved once and for all
394 * reference counting of smb_vc_t data structures improved
396 * name space collision of smb_fid_t event objects corrected
398 * the output of "fs memdump" is now written to
399 %WINDIR%\TEMP\afsd_alloc.log
401 * the file TaAfsApp_1033.dll is now properly installed allowing
402 the User Manager to start
404 * a new algorithm is used for computing filename pattern matches
406 * afscreds.exe now accepts user names containing instance
409 * Fix the Directory Name Lookup Cache to be case-sensitive.
410 This is crucial in environments in which a Windows client
411 is accessing a directory with more than one filename that
412 differs only by case. If the directory contains "FOO"
413 and "Foo". You want "DEL Foo" to delete the correct one.
414 We still have a problem in that "DEL foo" will delete a
415 random filename. This will be addressed in a future release.
417 * Fix afscreds.exe -M option (renewMaps) to work when High
418 Security mode is off. Also, remember to disable the ActiveMap
419 flag in afsdsbmt.ini when a drive mapping is removed.
421 * Updates to NSIS installer script. AFS Server configuration
422 data will not be destroyed on un-install or re-install.
423 Use a better compression algorithm.
425 * afslogon.dll now uses KFW to obtain tokens when available
427 * afslogon.dll when given an all uppercase username will
428 attempt to authenticate with both the uppercase name
429 and an all lowercase variation
431 * DST modification removed. The fix appears to make things
432 worse after a reboot of the machine.
434 * fs.exe: added "cscpolicy" which is used to
435 change client side caching policy for AFS shares
437 Usage: fs cscpolicy [-share <AFS share>] [-manual] [-programs]
438 [-documents] [-disable] [-help]
440 * Several uninitialized variables have been initialized
442 * It is now possible to obtain tokens using cross realm
443 Kerberos within afscreds.exe:
445 user: jaltman@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
447 Will obtain a cross realm ticket for jaltman/DEMENTIA.ORG@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
448 will will in turn be used to obtain afs@DEMENTIA.ORG.
449 The resulting token will be stored with the display name
450 jaltman@ATHENA.MIT.EDU@dementia.org
452 * aklog.exe has been added to the client
454 Usage: aklog [-d] [[-cell | -c] cell [-k krb_realm]]
455 [[-p | -path] pathname]
459 -d gives debugging information.
460 krb_realm is the kerberos realm of a cell.
461 pathname is the name of a directory to which you wish to authenticate.
462 -noprdb means don't try to determine AFS ID.
463 -5 or -4 selects whether to use Kerberos V or Kerberos IV.
464 (default is Kerberos V)
465 No commandline arguments means authenticate to the local cell.
468 * All of the resource files have been restructured to adhere to
469 a set of rules IBM implemented for loading string resources.
470 These rules had either been forgotten or were not discovered
471 by folks working on the OpenAFS sources. The end result was
472 memory corruption. This is primary item which was preventing
473 the AFS Server from working.
475 * Increased the size of the maximum ticket size stored in a token
476 from 344 bytes to 12,000. Increased the buffers used to convey
477 messages between the pioctl() caller and the SMB Server from
478 1000 bytes to 12,512. The code appeared to have been writing
479 above the top of the stack by quite a few number of bytes.
480 (The increased ticket size is necessary for the next item.)
482 * When obtaining AFS Tokens via KFW, krb524 is no longer required.
483 Instead the raw Kerberos 5 ticket is used in its entirety. This
484 is extremely important as it allows us to use pure Kerberos 5 KDCs
485 as the source of the AFS authentication. The use of up to 12,000 byte
486 tickets will allow tickets produced by all versions of Microsoft
487 Active Directory to be used.
488 - create a user account.
489 - designate it DES only
491 - specify its UPN to be "afs@realm"
492 - assign a SPN of "afs/cellname" to the UPN with setspn.exe
494 * Do not enforce the funky 8dot3 pattern matching rule that the first "."
495 is special when using long file names. (you must use "*.*" and not "*")
496 Instead only enforce it when performing 8dot3 searches.
498 * Fixed the DST problem with creation times being set one hour ahead
500 * Fixed the problem when using \\afs\cell-alias. For example,
501 \\afs\uncc instead of \\afs\uncc.edu. Do not a new cell struct
502 for the alias name; instead simply expand the name. One of the
503 symptoms of this problem was a loss of acquired tokens.
505 * Fixed the AFS Shell Extension. The Symbolic Link menu was empty
506 of strings. (Only English strings provided.)
508 * Fixed the installer to properly replace in use files.
510 * Fixed the build system to cleanup generated component version files
512 * The release build compiled with MSVC 6.0 compiler to avoid the
513 afsd_service.exe shutdown crash. This does not solve the problem
514 but simply avoids it for the time being.
518 * fix afslogon.dll to not corrupt memory when High Security mode
521 * fix afsd_service.exe to not attempt to restore the stack when
522 an exception occurs. (not safe in multi-threaded programs)
524 * fix uninstaller to properly remove the CRT and MFC DLLs
526 * remove a Message Box from afscreds.exe when getcellconfig()
527 fails on a kerberos realm which is not a cell
529 The following is a list of changes to the OpenAFS for Window client
532 * "fs setserverprefs" will leave afsd service deadlocked
534 * "vos listaddrs" will core dump
536 * installer sets the appropriate keys to support Integrated Logon
538 * installer disables the "Find Lana by Name" functionality as it
539 was causing headaches for many users
541 * fix the intermittent crash of the power management thread when
542 shutting down the AFS Client Service
544 * optimizes the obtain drive mount list functionality which is
545 executed every time the mount tab in afscreds.exe and afs_config.exe
546 are refreshed. (this happens a lot)
548 * fix the service shutdown logic. add the STOP_PENDING state
549 and do not accept additional service events after we declare
552 The following is a list of changes to the OpenAFS for Window client
555 * flexelint was run against the source tree and hundreds (perhaps
556 thousands) of corrections were applied to ensure prototypes
557 were in use; types were used consistently; variables were
558 initialized; unused variables were removed; etc.
560 * A wide variety of instrumentation was added including the
561 ability to produce a stack trace from within afsd_service.exe
564 * Dynamic configuration of the RDRtimeout value based upon the
565 LanMan Workstation Session Timeout
567 * The mount root no longer needs to be called "/afs". This
568 is now set by a registry value "MountRoot" within the key
569 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAFSDaemon\Parameters
571 * The cell list is now only read out of afsdcell.ini when the
572 file changes instead of each time a cell is resolved.
574 * Thread synchronization was added to cm_server.c and ktc_nt.c
576 * All calls to GlobalAlloc()/GlobalFree() were replaced with
577 calloc()/free(). The Global functions were needed on Windows 3.x
578 but have caused a variety of problems on the Win32 platforms.
579 Avoiding them is highly recommended by several Microsoft
580 Knowledgebase articles
582 * Support for Symbolic Links added to the AFS Shell Extension
584 * Added a registry value "OverlayEnabled" to determine if
585 Shell Extension Overlays should be enabled.
586 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAFSDaemon\Parameters
588 * New Build system to support VC6, VC.NET, VC.NET2003 compilers and
589 separate trees for checked and free builds. Build system supports
590 a custom directory src\WINNT\extra which can be used as a grafting
591 location of organization specific additions to the build tree.
593 * New installer built using NSIS 2.0.
595 * Named all kernel objects in order to allow them to be monitored
596 with tools such as SysInternals' ProcExp.exe.
598 * Introduced new EventLog framework for AFSD
600 * Introduced Power Management interface to AFSD for Standby and
601 Hibernate modes to allow cache to be flushed prior to network
604 * Utilize Win32 DNSQuery API instead of internal routines. This
605 allows DNS SRV queries to be sent to all current domain name
606 servers. Not just one specified in an INI file. DNS is now
609 * "NetbiosName" registry value may be used to specify a fixed
610 Netbios Name such as "AFS" to be used instead of "HOSTNAME-AFS"
611 when the loopback adapter is in use. If you need to use the
612 old notation with a loopback adapter installed specify a registry
615 "NetbiosName" REG_EXPAND_SZ = "%COMPUTERNAME%-AFS"
617 * Refactor all modules which depend on LAN Adapter and NetbiosName
618 determination in a new library: lanahelper.lib. This allows for
619 consistent behavior throughout the product.
621 * Move the afsd.log and afsd_init.log files to the directory specified
622 by the "TEMP" environment variable. This is usually %WINDIR%\TEMP
623 for services. Added the Date to the log entries.
625 * New registry value "RxMaxMTU" used to limit the size of the RX
626 packets sent by the AFS Client Service to the Server. In order
627 to enable OpenAFS to work across the Cisco IPSec VPN the packet
628 size must be restricted to 1264 or smaller. The latest NSIS
629 installer sets a value of 1260 by default.
631 * New registry value "RxNoJumbo" to disable the use of Jumbo Rx
632 packets. This is not needed in order to work across the Cisco
633 VPN but might be needed for other network environments. This
634 value is not set by the NSIS installer.
636 * New registry value "HideDotFiles" is used to apply the Hidden
637 attribute to files whose names begin with a '.'. This value
638 is set by the NSIS installer.
640 * New registry value "MaxMpxRequests" allows the maximum number
641 of multiplexed sessions to be configured at run time. This
642 value is not set by the NSIS installer. The default value is
645 * New registry value "MaxVCPerServer" allows the maxmimum number
646 of VCs per server to be configured at run time. This value is
647 not set by the NSIS installer. The default value is 100.
649 * New registry value "AllSubmount" allows the "all" submount to
650 be disabled by setting its value to 0x00.
652 * Allow cells names to be valid mount points
653 \\<netbiosName>\<cellname>
655 * Store the active state of drive mappings in order for afscreds.exe
656 to restore them upon startup
658 * Add exception handling to generate a Stack Trace to the afsd_init.log
659 file if one happens to occur.
661 * Add lots of logging to help detect the cause of invalid SMB packets
663 * Enable Kerberos for Windows to be used to obtain AFS Tokens via
664 conversion of Kerberos 5 "afs" service tickets. Supports auto-
665 renewal of expiring tokens as long as afscreds.exe is running.
667 * New afscreds.exe command line options:
669 -M = renew drive maps
670 -N = ip address change detection
673 * New registry value "EnableKFW" in {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
674 determines whether or not MIT Kerberos for Windows should be used
675 to obtain tokens via Kerberos 5 tickets.
677 * New registry value "AfscredsShortcutParams" in
678 {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
679 determines the command line parameters to be specified when "fixing"
680 the AFS Shortcut in the user's startup folder.
682 * The "ShowTrayIcon" registry value has been moved from
683 HKLM\Software\TransarcCorporation\AFS Client\AfsCreds to
684 {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
686 * The <cell name> registry values used to store the token expiration
687 reminders have been moved from
688 HKLM\Software\TransarcCorporation\AFS Client\AfsCreds to
689 {HKCU,HKLM}SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Reminders
691 * Obtain the Logon User Name from the Explorer key when available
693 * new text document doc\txt\winnotes\registry.txt lists all registry
694 values used by OpenAFS (excluding the AFS Server)
696 * BUG: rx_securityClass objects were not properly reference
697 counted and were never freed.
699 * BUG: reduce the number of conditions under which CM_ERROR_TIMEOUT
700 would be generated. The existence of a server does not imply
701 that it is not down. If all of the servers for a cell are down
702 return CM_ERROR_NOSUCHVOLUME instead. This prevents the Explorer
705 * BUG: the directory name lookup cache failed to free the entries
706 in the cache when the name cache entries cycled. The entries
707 in the cache would become dereferenced without being freed.
709 * BUG: fs setserverprefs could be executed without Administrator
712 * BUG: the number of allocated NCB objects (100) exceeded the number
713 which could actually be waited upon by the kernel (64). Any objects
714 which were utilized above the limit could never have event completions
717 * BUG: smb_username_t objects were not being reference counted and
718 were not properly freed.
720 * BUG: smb_tid_t objects could under unusual circumstances be freed
721 before they were no longer referenced.
723 * BUG: smb_fid_t object pointer were frequently used even when
724 their value could be NULL. They were not properly released and
725 therefore they were never freed.
727 * BUG: smb_packet_t data structures were not completely initialized
730 * BUG: when Rx produces a CM_ERROR_NOIPC error do not return "Access
731 Denied" because that causes the Explorer Shell to try again until
732 access is obtained. Instead return "Remote Resources" which allows
733 the shell to move on and treat the error as transient.
735 * BUG: when initializing the NCBreturns structure, separate Event objects
736 were created for each NCB although a single Event object was supposed
739 * BUG: smb_dirSearch_t objects were not being properly referenced counted
742 * BUG: smb_tran2Packet_t objects were not being properly referenced
745 * BUG: directory path creation did not handle the case of multiple
746 directories requiring creation in one attempt
748 * BUG: SMB requests which required an Extended Response were ignored.
749 This prevented some files from being written to AFS volumes.
751 * BUG: character strings were being freed even after they were
752 inserted into in use data structures
754 * BUG: inconsistent usernames were used when High Security mode was
755 enabled. (there is still much to do in this area)
757 * BUG: pioctl() calls which require out of band RPC operations were
758 susceptible to race conditions when performed by multiple processes
760 * BUG: memory allocation and deallocation crossed instances of the
761 C Runtime Library producing memory leakage and corruption in
762 afscreds and the client configurator.
