We already check for (and reject entries with) '+' or '-' as the first
character of the key side of the key/data pair; we should check the data
side too. (Letting spurious +/- entries into the NIS maps is bad karma.)
I got tired of see ``UNIX System Managers Manual''
NOTE: There still a couple of UNIXs left in here. There deal with the
documents. We may want to change there also, even though VERY little of there
even pertain to FreeBSD.
instead of the uninitialized one $(DEVICE).
I hoped these changes would fix some of the large runtime macro processing
bugs, but they seem to only fix some small build-time macro substitution
bugs. E.g., `man ms' now tells you to invoke groff with the flags `-ms'
instead of the bogus flags `-m'; `man groff now tells you that the default
device is `ps' instead of the bogus device `'.
shared library. Formerly, the message looked like this:
ld.so: run: libjdp1.so.1.0: Undefined error: 0
The new message looks like this:
ld.so: run: Can't find shared library "libjdp1.so.1.0"
(Where "run" is the name of the program being executed.)

symbols.
An easy example to see this is to develop an X program which links
against Xt, but doesn't add -lX11 to the link line. It will link fine,
but cause run-time errors by ld.so because of missing symbols used by Xt
defined in X11. This patch makes the errors more readable.

#ifdef out a number of calls to free() left over from the original
GNU ypserv implementation. As near as I can tell, the Berkeley DB
package does its own garbage collection, hence the caller doesn't
have to worry about free()ing the memory returned in the DBT
structures during lookups (I'm still not 1005 sure about this:
the DB code is very hard to follow. I must use dynamically
allocated memory since you can retreive arbitrarily large records
from a database, but I'm not sure where it ends up letting go
of it). This was not true with GDBM; you had
to do your own garbage collection.
The general rule is that if you allocate memory inside an RPC
service routine, you have to free() it the next time the routine is
called since the underlying XDR routines won't do it for you.
But if the DB package does this itself, then we don't need to do
it in the main program.
Note that with the original malloc(), there were never any errors
flagged. phkmalloc complained quite loudly.
in the diff. This makes it so that diffs containing files in different
subdirectories that have the same name not patch the same file. For example
a diff with patches to Makefile, des/Makefile, usr.bin/Makefile would attempt
to patch Makefile three times.
"update -jHEAD" when a file has been added on the specified tag.
It doesn't actually make cvs 'handle' it, it just stops it from dying
and leaving stray locks and other wreckage.
This was suggested by the CVS maintainers, and is in cvs-1.5.1-950901.
1: It stops invalid files being created in the cvs tree
2: It stops the import from aborting without mailing a commit message..
The first is simple, it opens the file for reading before touching the
repository, and the second catches the pieces when it hits an unreadable
file rather than just aborting mid-way through, leaving the repository in
a bit mess.

In ypserv:
yp_svc.c:
- small signal handler tweak (hopefully the last): just use sigemptyset()
to clear sa_mask.
Makefile.yp:
- Let the user specify the location of master.passwd when updating
maps (e.g. make MASTER_PASSWD=/some/path/to/master.passwd). Editing
the file to change the location of master.passwd still works. This
is mostly to let yppassswdd specify the name of the master.passwd
file itself.
In yppasswdd:
yppasswdd.c:
- Roll in some minor changes (mostly casts) from Olaf Kirch's latest
yppasswd package release (version 0.7).
- Use daemon() instead of doing all the deamonizing gruntwork ourselves.
- Call pw_init() after daemonizing ourselves. pw_init() sets up some
resource limits and blocks some signals for us. We used to do this before
every password change, but there's really no point in calling it more
than once during the life of the program.
- Change install_reaper() so that we can use it to de-install the SIGCHLD
handler if we need to (and we do in pw_mkdb() -- this is what I get for
splicing code from two different programs together).
- Use sigemptyset(&act.sa_mask) rather than act.sa_mask = 0: the latter is
decidedly non-portable. (In IRIX, HP-UX and Solaris, sigset_t is an
array of longs, not an int.)
update.c:
- Roll in change from new version (check that we're not modifying an NIS
entry in validate_args()).
- Get rid of call to pw_init() (moved to yppasswdd.c).
- Check return values from pw_util routines and return error status to
yppasswd clients if there's a problem.
- Straighten out password file copying mechanism a little. Keep a grip
on the original password file rather than summarily overwriting it so
that we can restore everything if we fail to fork() a process to update
the NIS maps.
- Pass the name of the password template file (specified with -m or
/etc/master.passwd by default) to the yppwupdate script, which in
turn should now pass it to /var/yp/Makefile.
pw_util.c:
- Nuke the pw_edit() and pw_prompt() functions -- we don't need them.
- Change all warn()s, warnx()s and err()s to syslog()s.
- Make sure we return error status to caller rather than bailing out
in pw_lock() and pw_tmp().
- Don't block SIGTERM in pw_init() (by ignoring SIGTERM, we prevent
yppasswdd from being shut down cleanly).
- Don't let pw_error() exit. (This stuff was stolen from chpass and vipw
which are interactive programs; it's okay to let pw_error() bail out
for these programs, but not in a daemon like yppasswdd).
- Fix signal handling in pw_mkdb (we need to temporarily de-install the
SIGCHLD handler so that we can wait on the pwd_mkdb child ourselves).
pw_copy.c:
- Change all warn()s, warnx()s and err()s to syslog()s.
- Add a bunch of returns() and make pw_copy() return and int ( 0 on success,
-1 on failure) so that update.c can flag errors properly.
- Return -1 after calling pw_error() to signal failures rather than
relying on pw_error() to bail out.
- Abort copying if we discover that we've been asked to change an entry
for a user that exists in the NIS passwd maps but not in the master.passwd
template file. This can happen if the passwd maps and the template file
fall out of sync with each other (or if somebody tries to spoof
us). The old behavior was to create add the entry to the password file,
which yppasswdd should not do under any circumstances.
Makefile:
- update VERSION to 0.7
yppasswdd.8:
- fix typo (forgot a carriage return somewhere)
- remove bogus reference to pwunconv(8) which FreeBSD doesn't have.
- bump version from 0.5 to 0.7
- Reflect changes in password file handling.
yppwupdate:
- Log map rebuilds to /var/yp/ypupdate.log.
- Pass the name of the template password file to /var/yp/Makefile as
$MASTER_PASSWD.
syslog connections unless they were rejected. This helps save wear and
tear on the syslog facility in large networks with many clienst systems.
yp_svc.c: Be a little smarter about using sigaction() -- set the SA_RESTART
flag.
svc_run: Be doubly paranoid about killing off child processes. Do a flag
chack and a pid check before letting child 'threads' self-destruct.
