- In yppasswdproc_update_1_svc(), I wasn't paying attention and put
a couple of lines of code _after_ a return() instead of before.
(*blush*)
- The removal of certain temp files didn't always work (this showed
up mostly if you were using /etc/master.passwd as your NIS passwd
template instead of /var/yp/master.passwd). This is because the
whole temp file creation mechanism I was using was tragically
broken (you can't rename across filesystems).
This problem I found myself:
- If you have a very large password database (30,000 or more entries),
there can be a delay of several seconds while pw_copy() copies the
ASCII template file and subsitutes in the modified/new entry. During
this time, the clnt_udp() code in the RPC library may get impatient
and retry its request. This will get queued at the server and be
treated as a second request. By then the password change will have
been completed and the second request will fail (the old password is
no longer valid). To attempt to fix this, we save the IP address and
port of each request and ignore any subsequent requests from the
same IP and same port that arrive within five minutes of each other.
Some things may still display text on the 24th line, but that's because
they've always been screens designed to fit into a minimal real-estate
and have hardwired assumptions about the dimensions. They'll be a little
harder to make dynamic.
later at pkg_delete time to verify that you're deleting what you added.
This, of course, does NOT cover the case where a file you still need
hasn't changed! That's a tougher problem to solve, and this provides
only the minimal amount of safety belt. MD5 checksums are stored in comment
fields, so packages produced with these tools are backwards compatible with
the older ones.
aliases of the "official" names as well, because now that getportbyname()
does a yp match, it no longer found the entries under the alias.
This broke rsh(1), because it looks up "shell/tcp" while the official
name in /etc/services is "cmd/tcp".

the FreeBSD Makefile.yp structure by me. This allows you to have a single
amd map for all machines in a cluster.
In /etc/sysconfig, it would look something like:
amdflags="-p -a /net -c 1800 -l syslog /host amd.host"
with theirs (change the -I option to -s (but leave -I in for backwards compat.)
Also eliminate an make sane some magic numbers, and fix a small bug where we'd
send to an unopened socket.

it somewhat easier to read, and may be a little faster. (Actually I think
the performace is about the same.)
Also, in the non DB_CACHE case, save copies of data returned from
the database library in a static buffer, just in case we decide to use
it after the database has been closed. Technically, the memory that the
data pointers refer to belongs to the DB package and we can't count on
it being there after the database has been closed -- the DB package
frees its buffers. (With DB_CACHE #defined the databases are held
open so the buffers remain valid.) I don't think any of the utilities
that use the dblookup module have had any problems with this yet, but
there's no sense in taking any chances.

ctm_dequeue is the cron job which takes the stuff from the
queue directory and punts it into sendmail. The chunks of
the deltas (and the complete deltas if they are that small)
are sorted into order before being dispatched, so the people
subscribing should still get the bits in the right order.
The changes to ctm_smail should be fairly safe as they won't be
activated unless you go for the new queue directory option.

Further, the filling of both the secure and insecure databases has been

The change will drastically improve performance for passwd and
friends with large passwd files. Vipw's performance won't change.
In order to do that some kind of diff should be made between the
old and new master.passwd and depending the amount of changes, an
incremental or complete update of the databases should be agreed
upon.
