associated changes that had to happen to make this possible as well as
bugs fixed along the way.
Bring in required TLI library routines to support this.
Since we don't support TLI we've essentially copied what NetBSD
has done, adding a thin layer to emulate direct the TLI calls
into BSD socket calls.
This is mostly from Sun's tirpc release that was made in 1994,
however some fixes were backported from the 1999 release (supposedly
only made available after this porting effort was underway).
The submitter has agreed to continue on and bring us up to the
1999 release.
Several key features are introduced with this update:
Client calls are thread safe. (1999 code has server side thread
safe)
Updated, a more modern interface.
Many userland updates were done to bring the code up to par with
the recent RPC API.
There is an update to the pthreads library, a function
pthread_main_np() was added to emulate a function of Sun's threads
library.
While we're at it, bring in NetBSD's lockd, it's been far too
long of a wait.
New rpcbind(8) replaces portmap(8) (supporting communication over
an authenticated Unix-domain socket, and by default only allowing
set and unset requests over that channel). It's much more secure
than the old portmapper.
Umount(8), mountd(8), mount_nfs(8), nfsd(8) have also been upgraded
to support TI-RPC and to support IPV6.
Umount(8) is also fixed to unmount pathnames longer than 80 chars,
which are currently truncated by the Kernel statfs structure.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
- Remove unused 'pid' member from the jobs structure. (This was left over
from an earlier incarnation of the program that used multiple processes.)
- Remove #ifdef'ed longjmp() stuff.
- Print warning message if the 'pushing' host is not the master for
a map being pushed but don't bail out. (While yppush should only
be used on an NIS master, using it elsewhere is not an unpardonable sin.)
yppush.8:
- Fix a couple of mind-os.
Makefile
- Change format to hopefully ease bootstrapping. (Suggested by wollman.)
Other Makefiles should follow.
- 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.
