It controlled + by following options: LIBMCHAIN, LIBICONV, NETSMB, NETSMBCRYPTO and SMBFS. + - Removed static dependency on the libiconv library, option WITH_ICONV + removed as well. If you use libiconv support, make sure that the latest + port is installed. + - Multiple mount/umount operations called in parallel can cause kernel + panic - fixed. + - Misc code cleanups. + +26.02.2001 1.3.6 + - Names of some options is the config.mk.in file are changed. The old ones + are still supported. + - Synch with changes in the recent -current (you'll need kernel compiled + from sources at least as of Feb 24). + - In all previous versions of smbfs signals weren't properly masked, + which caused erratical behavior of some programs (ftp(1) for example). + - Mounted shares may become "frozen" (no timeout occurs) if server died or + disconnected for some reason - fixed. + +09.02.2001 1.3.5 + - The user and server names was swapped in the "TreeConnect" + request (fixed by Jonathan Hanna). + - smb requester could cause a panic if there is no free mbufs - fixed. + - It is possible to use smbfs with devfs now, but it wasn't tested under + SMP. Also note that device permissions will be wrong, because devfs + do not allow passing of credentials to the cloning function. + - nsmbX device moved from the /dev/net directory to /dev directory. + +31.01.2001 1.3.4 + - Maintance: synch with changes in the recent -current + +28.01.2001 1.3.3 + - Connection handling engine rewritten in order to reduce number of + possible deadlocks during reconnect operations. + - Directory traversals should be faster on large directories. + - smbfs now can talk to the NetApp servers (thanks to Jonathan Hanna). + - smbfs.sh.sample script updated (ideas from Nikolai Saoukh). + - Minor bug fixes. + +19.11.2000 1.3.2 + - synch with changes in the recent -current + - nail down a nasty bug which may cause incorrect values supplied as + domain name (reported by Harald Weis). + - There was a bug in the directory listing code which caused long directory + traversals to fail (reported by A G F Keahan). + +29.10.2000 1.3.1 + - An attempt was made to get rid from the possible kernel stack overflow. + - Now connection will be restored properly under -stable. + NOTE: NT servers have an 'AutoDisconnect' feature which will drop client + connection after some time of idleing. smbfs will restore connection on + the next request, but one may wish to setup a cron job with a simple + 'ls /ntmount' command. + +20.10.2000 1.3.0 + - Network IO engine significantly reworked. Now it uses kernel threads + to implement 'smbiod' process which handles network traffic for each VC. + Previous model were incapable to serve large number of mount points and + didn't work well with intensive IO operations performed on a different + files on the same mount point. Special care was taken on better + usage of MP systems. + Unfortunately, kernel threads aren't supported by FreeBSD 3.X and for + now it is excluded from the list of supported systems. + - Reduce overhead caused by using single hash table for each mount point. + +26.09.2000 1.2.8 (never released) + - More SMP related bugs are fixed. + - Make smbfs compatible with the Linux emulator. + - smbfs now known to work with IBM LanManager (special thanks to + Eugen Averin <mad@euinf.dp.ua>) + - Fix problem with files bigger than 2GB (reported by Lee McKenna) + - Please note that smbfs may not work properly with FreeBSD 3.X. + +16.08.2000 1.2.7 + - Maintance: use better algorithm to detect SYSCTL_HANDLER_ARGS changes + to avoid compilation problems on various versions of FreeBSD. + +07.08.2000 1.2.6 + - Fix iconv support, was broken in the 1.2.5 + - Minor corrections to 'smbutil view' command. + - Fix kernel memory leak caused by two subsequent and identical + 'smbutil login' commands. + +25.07.2000 1.2.5 + - NetBIOS name resolver added. '-I' option still supported. WINS server + can be specified in the nsmbrc file (nbns variable). To use resolver + with Win9X machines you have to specify WINS server in the config file. + +12.07.2000 1.2.4 + - Variable SRCTREE in the config.mk replaced with SYSDIR and should + point to the sys directory. '/usr/src/sys' for example. + - Correct problem with the keep-alive packets + +04.07.2000 1.2.3 + - Killed some bugs related to the out-of-mbufs condition. + - new keyword 'addr' added to the config file to specify server address. + - Another attempt to make reconnection procedure more stable. + +21.06.2000 1.2.2 + - Device handles wasn't freed under FreeBSD 3.4 - fixed. + Implement correct handling of multiple connections to the same NT + server (thanks to kit <kit.mitchell@team.xtra.co.nz>) for report. + More misc fixes for an NT servers. + +11.06.2000 1.2.1 + - More bug fixes in the connection handling mechanism. + mount_smbfs(8) manpage has now proper description for an '-N' option. + smbutil supports new commands: + 'print' - send file to the remote printer + 'view' - list shares available on the specified host + 'login' - create permanent connection to remote host + 'logout'- counterpart of 'login' + 'crypt' - produce an encrypted password to store in the .nsmbrc file. + +01.06.2000 1.1.2 + - Support for FreeBSD 3.4 added (see INSTALL file for details). + Add advisory locking support in order to make fcntl(2), flock(2) + system calls actually work on smbfs. + Few non-serious bugs fixed. + +16.05.2000 1.0.5 + - fix authentication code, this caused troubles with NT server. + (Thanks to Neil Blakey-Milner and Andrew Zavjalov for testing) + Some documentation changes. + +14.05.2000 1.0.2 + - first public release + +Boris Popov <bp@butya.kz> |
