went to the multi-directory package scheme since it wasn't designed with
that kind of layout in mind when first written, and the attempts to adapt
it haven't really resulted in an interface that's easy to use. I will make
a stand-alone version of the pkg installer in sysinstall at some point
and drop it into the existing pkg_install directory.
fix return/exit codes in some cases.
Add -S which will delete any old entry first.
Add "auto" in proxy case, so it finds the right interface automatically.
Formerly, there were limits on both the number of files (hard-coded into
the program) and the number of characters (because of the ARG_MAX limit
in exec(2)). In this new version, the filenames are passed to tar through
a pipe, using tar's "-T" option, rather than on the command line.
- Improve support for multiple domains. (In preparation for new rpc.yppasswdd.)
yp_dblookup.c:
- Improve error reporting: be more selective as to what error code
we return when a (dbp->get) fails.
- Don't do longjmp()s from inside a signal handler. Even though I got
things to work the way I wanted, it's bad karma.
- Remember to clear the sa_mask with sigemptyset() before masking signals
when using sigaction() to set up the SIGIO handler.
- Break out of the wait loop in yppush_exit() when the five minute
timeout expires instead of looping around for another pass. If ypxfr
on the other end fails somehow and never sends a response, we don't
want to wait around forever.
ppp based on these patches for about 3 weeks with no downtime.
The original submitters comments:
Two features iijppp has over kernel ppp that I like are predictor1
compression and demand dialing. Here are a few bug fixes.
I expanded the priority queueing scheme and discovered it was broken
due to the assignment at ip.c line 300. All packets were being
queued at the same priority.
Fixing priority queueing broke predictor1 compression. Packets
were compressed before being queued and predictor1 worked as long
as the packets were popped off the queue in the same order they
were pushed onto the queue.
There were a few byte order problems in IP header tests also.
There is a recursion problem in SendLqrReport(). LcpClose() is
called when "Too many echo packets are lost" which winds up in
SendLqrReport() again. I believe the original intention was to
just stop the LQR timer with the call to StopLqr() but the side
effects hurt.
