6 for PAM or shadow passwords (configure --with-pam)
7 * Makefile.in: made some messages simpler
8 * citadel.spec: updated for 5.53; correct name of tarball; build with
9 --enable-chkpwd and --with-pam; add defattr tags so rpm's can be
10 built by non-root user
11 * commands.c: cosmetic cleanup
12 * config.c: (security/paranoia) check permissions on citadel.config
13 * configure.in: check for ncurses if we can't find curses

60 * configure.in: compiler choice & flags for BSDI; check for libtermcap
61 * database.c: don't use a critical section in open_databases()

64 * mime_parser.c: include <errno.h>
65 * msgbase.c: include <limits.h>
66 * sysdep.c: hacks for BSDI. use signals to fake thread cancellation;
67 don't call master_cleanup() directly from signal handler.
68 * routines.c: prototype getutline() if necessary
69 * getutline.c: stupid bugfix
70 * acconfig.h, configure.in, locate_host.c, server.h: work around
71 nonreentrant gethostbyaddr() on BSDI
73 Mon Feb 15 22:59:00 EST 1999 Vaggelis Tsirkas
74 * citadel.c: increased hostname buffer size to handle very big names
76 1999-02-15 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
77 * sysdep.c(main): initialize alen before call to accept()
79 1999-02-04 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
80 * configure.in: improved check for cygwin
81 * configure.in, routines.c: access utmp directly instead of calling
82 `who' if getutline() is available.
83 * configure.in, Makefile.in, getutline.c: replace getutline() on
84 systems which don't have it
85 * routines.c: now always access utmp directly unless we can't find

133 * Added some more code to the unfinished MIME parser
134 * Changed module loading path to simply "modules" because after calling
135 get_config(), the cwd is guaranteed to be the correct BBS directory.
137 Tue Jan 19 21:28:29 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
138 * Fixed a bug in the user editing command (client side)

166 * Replaced all occurances of malloc(), realloc(), and free() in the
167 server and server-modules with mallok(), reallok(), and phree().
168 Wrote macros and a set of leak-tracking functions.
170 Sun Jan 3 20:38:45 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

179 Sat Dec 26 16:56:46 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
180 * internetmail.config: commented this file more clearly
182 Wed Dec 23 20:42:49 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
183 * citadel.c: added some experimental code to automatically reconnect
184 to the server if the connection is broken. For some reason, it only
187 Wed Dec 23 18:47:12 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
188 * sysdep.c: ignore SIGPIPE. This keeps broken connections from
189 crashing the whole server.

192 Mon Dec 21 07:54:20 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
193 * housekeeping.c: call kill_session() with session_to_kill,
194 not ccptr->cs_pid (was crashing the server)
196 Sat Dec 19 13:57:48 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
197 * Added "-i" flag to netproc to make it skip the export phase.
198 Updated other programs to call netproc in this way when appropriate.
199 * Updated network.txt to reflect the usage for netproc (which has
200 been wrong for several releases)
202 Thu Dec 17 00:17:04 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
203 * Started removing the word "beta" from the docs and code.
204 Preparing for an actual release.
205 * msgbase.c: generate an 'I' field when requested (i.e. on locally
206 originating messages. this was breaking parts of the network)
208 1998-12-15 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
209 * msgbase.c: remove extra call to alias() which was causing
210 Citadel-to-Citadel mail to fall into the bit bucket.
211 * msgbase.c: fixed tempfile naming problem that could cause a new
212 outgoing netmail message to overwrite another if netproc had not been
215 1998-12-14 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

234 * Removed whitespace to left and right of '@' in netmail recipients
235 * sysdep.c: read citadel.config _before_ initializing loadable modules
236 * stats.c: fixed segfault resulting from extracting log lines
237 * Ripped most of the "attachments" stuff out of both the client and

252 1998-12-02 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
253 * weekly is now generated by configure
255 Mon Nov 30 19:48:52 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

271 Sat Nov 21 16:53:30 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
272 * Added a fourth color mode in the client: "user" which turns color
273 on or off according to a per-user flag stored on the server. Added
274 server-side support for this too, of course.
276 * serv_expire.c: finished the code to purge stale visits
277 * sysdep.c: strip trailing nonprintables in client_gets()
278 * routines2.c: fixed <.AS> command; all configs now work properly

280 and removed them from all other files. Linked in tools.[o|ro] there.
281 * netproc.c: handled incoming file transfers to correct room directory
282 * room_ops.c: fixed incorrect naming of files in info and images dirs
284 Fri Nov 20 20:29:07 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
285 * setup.c: removed all prompts that can be configured from within the
286 client in order to simplify the setup procedure
288 Thu Nov 19 23:28:33 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
289 * Fixed serv_upgrade.c and export5.c (found elsewhere) to use a new
290 export format which treats visits as a separate section
291 * serv_expire.c: began writing functions to purge rooms and visits
292 (neither work yet), and added a way to call defrag_databases()
294 Wed Nov 18 23:51:17 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
295 * Reimplemented 'visit' structs stored globally instead of as

301 Sun Nov 15 20:32:34 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
302 * room_ops.c: mailbox rooms always appear on the main floor
303 * made QR_MAILBOX rooms non-editable
304 * cmd_setr() delete old room record when room name changes
305 (This causes a big mess that exposes a flaw in the whole design.)
306 * room_ops.c: users can delete messages from their mailboxes
308 Thu Nov 12 23:59:13 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
309 * Rewrote cmd_rchg() and also increased the size of the "fakename"
310 buffer. Overruns are probably what was causing the crashes.
311 * Changed the way cmd_ent3() handles mail messages; the previous code
312 rerouted all private mail to the trash.
314 Wed Nov 11 17:57:39 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
315 * citserver.c: slight changes to cmd_rchg() and cmd_hchg() [crashes]
316 * citserver.c, msgbase.c, user_ops.c: hide the owner-prefix of mail
317 rooms in a couple more places: set_wtmpsupp() and make_message()
318 * sysdep.c: added an fflush() to lprintf() for "tail -f"-able logs
319 * serv_expire.c: purge ops are now a command instead of a cleanup
320 function. This is probably temporary as well.
321 * citadel.c: fixed the way <.WL> parses the returned data from a
324 1998-11-11 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
325 * serv_upgrade.c: fix uninitialized variable
327 Wed Nov 11 00:47:32 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
328 * msgbase.c: fixed a bug that was misrouting incoming network msgs
329 * server.h, database.c: wrapped all GDBM calls in critical sections
330 to avoid making those calls re-entrantly (gdbm fatal: lseek error)
332 1998-11-10 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
333 * Makefile.in: link in snprintf.o where needed

345 * routines.c: added more stuff to <.A>ide <E>dit user
347 Sun Nov 8 22:56:53 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
348 * serv_expire.c: created; moved message expiry from serv_test.c,
349 moved user purge from userpurge.c
350 * userpurge.c: deleted
351 * routines2.c: finished <.AS> command
352 * room_ops.c: fixed Aide room access (for some reason, the Aide
353 room had the QR_MAILBOX flag set)
355 1998-11-08 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
356 * useradmin.c: really removed (cvs remove)
357 * aidepost.c, citadel.c: convert all sprintf() calls to snprintf()
358 * sysdep.c: fix overrun in lprintf() described by dme/Dead Monkey
359 * citmail.c, citserver.c: convert all sprintf() call to snprintf()

362 * useradmin.c: removed
363 * utils.doc: removed references to useradmin and sysoputil
365 Fri Nov 6 20:22:20 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
366 * citadel.h (and related files): removed defunct parameters,
367 c_defent and c_msgbase (erase your test bbs)

381 Wed Nov 4 10:53:13 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
382 * messages.c: temporarily set screenwidth to a fixed value of 80
383 during <P>rint operations.
385 Mon Nov 2 12:59:03 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
386 * setup.c: looks for 'citadel', 'bbs', or 'guest' in /etc/passwd to
387 try to get a default for bbsuid if it's currently set to 0
388 * citmail.c: changed usersupp.eternal to usersupp.usernum (why didn't

390 * serv_upgrade.c: began writing an "export" command to do sidegrades
392 Sun Nov 1 18:47:42 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
393 * serv_upgrade.c: cosmetic changes
394 * Implemented message expiry by date (this really needs to be moved
395 out of serv_test.c, but where does it belong?)
397 1998-11-01 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
398 * serv_upgrade.c: warning fixes
399 * acconfig.h: remove ANSI_COLOR

402 Sat Oct 31 20:48:44 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
403 * More stoopid ANSI colour additions here and there.
404 * ANSI colour selection is now in citadel.rc instead of an option in
405 the configure script. "on" "off" and "auto" are available.
406 * added "build.txt" to the techdoc directory, with LS's build notes
408 1998-10-31 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
409 * citadel.c, commands.c, commands.h: set background color to black
410 before clearing screen, so that we can actually see text on
411 black-on-white xterms.
413 1998-10-29 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
414 * rooms.c: fix color of Mail>
415 * citadel.c: send ANSI detect sequence after attach_to_server() so the
416 terminal doesn't send the answerback sequence to the shell if we
419 Wed Oct 28 20:20:14 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us
420 * citadel.c: Added a splash of colour to the Wholist

424 * mkinstalldirs: new file to be used for `make install'
425 * aclocal.m4, missing: new files, also swiped from automake
426 * citadel.c: don't mung the terminal if we can't find citadel.rc
427 * Makefile.in: added `install' target, `clean' removes
428 *.mo, rebuild configure when configure.in changes.
429 * configure.in: check for install and autoconf
430 * configure.in, Makefile.in: only pass -fPIC to gcc
431 * policy.c: warning fix for OSF/1 (use memset() instead of bzero())
433 Tue Oct 27 22:25:42 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
434 * Unified the "unpacked database" format for both upgrades and
435 sidegrades (also see export5.c elsewhere)
436 * citserver.c: clear out cmdbuf before reading a command; some server
437 commands were accidentally extracting parameters from previous cmds
438 * rooms.c: removed the warning about the ineffectiveness of kicking
439 users out of public rooms, because the new server can do lockouts
441 1998-10-27 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
442 * sysdep.c (client_gets), ipc_c_tcp.c (serv_gets): improved handling
444 * Makefile.in: partial support for VPATH builds, autodependency fix
446 Tue Oct 27 00:08:16 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
447 * minor documentation changes
449 Sun Oct 25 14:57:40 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
450 * messages.c: fixed an oversight that was allowing attachments even
451 when disabled in citadel.rc
453 1998-10-25 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
454 * routines2.c: warning fix
456 Sat Oct 24 22:07:56 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
457 * Client: added message expiration policy questions to room edit
458 * Client: added <.A>ide <S>ystem configuration command
460 1998-10-24 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
461 * Makefile.in: Auto dependency generation (may require GNU make, but
462 does at least function without this feature on OSF/1 make);
463 Makefile is regenerated when Makefile.in changes (ditto);
464 `realclean' is now known as `distclean';
465 portability fixes for older Unix make utilities
466 * citadel.c, citadel.h, commands.c: make client suspendable
468 Fri Oct 23 19:34:38 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

480 * configure.in: autologin defaults to enabled if crypt() is available
481 * room_ops.c: fix improper null-termination bug I introduced
483 Mon Oct 19 20:52:55 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
484 * Client ability to force display of prompts in Mail rooms, even when
485 the user has prompting turned off (citadel.rc option)
487 1998-10-16 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
488 * sysdep.c (cprintf): generate a newline on truncated buffer
489 * room_ops.c: exploitable overrun fixes
491 Thu Oct 15 19:27:32 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
492 * msgbase.c: reimplemented cmd_move()
493 room_ops.c: wrote AddMessageToRoom() which is used for both entering
495 * setup.c: system-default message expire policy of "number of
496 messages, 150" is now a default configuration instead of a temp hack
497 * proxy.c: cache dir create now dies on any error except EEXIST
499 Wed Oct 14 22:41:16 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
502 1998-10-13 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
503 * configure.in: don't check for -lcrypt unless autologin is enabled
504 * file_ops.c: fix another overrun
506 Mon Oct 12 15:27:21 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
507 * Killed the "rooms" subdirectory (it isn't used anymore)
508 * dynloader.c: Made dynamically added server commands case-insensitive
509 * import.c is now serv_upgrade.c, a module
510 * Removed most of the "level 9" trace messages no longer needed
512 1998-10-12 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
513 * Makefile.in: simplified to use pattern rules; files compiled with
514 -D_REENTRANT go to *.ro to allow the same files to be used with both
516 * tools.c, tools.h: new files; misc routines used by both client and
517 server go here. contains safestrncpy() at the moment.
518 * rooms.c: fix several exploitable buffer overruns

523 * .cvsignore: add *.ro
525 Sun Oct 11 23:17:48 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
526 * Built some more of the message expiry infrastructure
528 1998-10-11 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
529 * citserver.c: fix two more overruns, one of which was preventing
530 the "From Host" from showing up in the <W>ho listing.
532 Sun Oct 11 02:51:55 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
533 * Moved "struct visit" and its associated defs from citadel.h to
534 server.h where they belong
535 * Set up data structures for room policies (expiry, etc.)
537 1998-10-10 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
538 * citserver.c: fix overrun which caused segv's on servers with long
541 Fri Oct 9 18:34:06 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
542 * user_ops.c: added PurgeStaleRelationships() to do processing at
543 session logout time to remove visits for rooms which no longer exist
544 * user_ops.c: implemented NewMailCount()
546 1998-10-09 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
547 * serv_chat.c: fix buffer overrun that was resulting in segv's
548 * serv_chat.c: fix another overrun that could cause sessions to hang,
549 and cleaned up some other strncpy()-related stuff. DON'T FORGET TO
550 NULL-TERMINATE DESTINATION BUFFERS AFTER STRNCPY CALLS.
552 Fri Oct 9 13:22:37 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
553 * Implemented "lazy mode" traversal - pressing the space bar will do
554 <N>ext messsage, <G>oto next room, or read <N>ew as appropriate.
555 * room_ops.c: modify CtdlRoomAccess() to allow access to mailbox rooms
556 only to their owners.
558 Thu Oct 8 17:13:27 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
559 * messages.c, citadel.rc: added the ability to display message numbers
560 in the header when reading messages. I think this is butt ugly, but
561 some of the DaveCode afficionados seem to like it...
563 Thu Oct 8 15:34:45 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
564 * room_ops.c: Added is_noneditable() function to replace all of the
565 duplicated code present in all functions which edit room parameters.
567 1998-10-08 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
568 * lots of warning fixes; builds with -std1 on dec unix
569 * aidepost.c, citadel.h, citmail.c, file_ops.c, msgbase.c, netmailer.c,
570 netproc.c, rcit.c, server.h, stats.c, userlist.c: use time_t where
572 * control.c, room_ops.c, serv_chat.c, sysdep.c: use memset() instead of
574 * dynloader.c, dynloader.h, messages.c, server.h, sysdep.c,
575 sysdep_decls.h: function pointer/prototyping fixes
576 * rooms.c: use mkfifo(3) instead of system("mkfifo")
578 1998-10-07 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
579 * snprintf.c, snprintf.h: new files
580 * Makefile.in, configure.in, dynloader.c, sysdep.c: support for the
581 above; citserver now builds and runs on Digital Unix 4.0d with the
582 GNU-style configure script. there is a bug with the hostname display
584 * netproc.c: sillyness fix
585 * room_ops.h: prototype delete_room()
586 * client_chat.c, commands.c, serv_chat.c, sysdep.c:
587 use HAVE_SYS_SELECT_H macro
589 Mon Oct 5 17:01:32 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
590 * Began fixing the stuff I broke
592 Sun Oct 4 23:35:18 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
593 * Did the big migration to the new data structures. Lots of stuff is
594 now broken. Basic moving from room to room works, but Mail is
595 broken, and some of the administrative commands are unimplemented.
597 1998-10-02 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
598 * configure.in: autologin now defaults to disabled
600 Fri Oct 2 00:04:31 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
601 * Finally removed all three usersupp.foo[MAXROOMS] elements, and
602 migrated all the code that used them to use "struct visit" instead.
604 Thu Oct 1 23:02:20 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
605 * Rewrote [l][get|put]room() functions to use room names rather than
606 room index numbers. Temporarily prepended a "n" to these four
607 function names until they are put to use.
609 Thu Oct 1 16:27:13 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
610 * Removed a few more references to usersupp.lastseen[]
612 1998-10-01 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
613 * .cvsignore: add so_locations (generated by osf1 ld with shared libs)
614 * Makefile.in: restructured variables for greater consistency, use
615 @echo to print out notices during the make process, add so_locations
617 * configure.in, Makefile.in: configure checks for -rdynamic
618 * ipc_c_tcp.c: fix DEC compiler warning wrt unsigned char
619 * stats.c: add semicolon to placate DREC compiler
620 * user_ops.c: define _POSIX_C_SOURCE, include <limits.h>
621 * configure.in: pass -pthread to DEC compiler, don't check for
622 libpthread[s] on DEC Unix
624 1998-09-30 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
625 * Makefile.in: new variable PTHREAD_DEFS for portability
626 * aidepost.c, citadel.c, citmail.c, mailinglist.c, msgform.c,
627 netmailer.c, netpoll.c, netproc.c, rcit.c, readlog.c, setup.c,
628 stats.c, userlist.c, whobbs.c: return type of main() is int
629 * citadel.c, commands.c, messages.c: use time_t properly
630 * citserver.c: include <limits.h>
631 * config.guess, config.sub, install-sh: new files
632 * configure.in: don't use gcc on Digital Unix
634 Tue Sep 29 23:17:34 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
635 * room_ops.c: modified usergoto() to look at the new data structures
636 for counting new messages and such.
638 1998-09-29 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
639 * user_ops.c: fix compiler warning and potential memory leak,
641 * configure.in, Makefile.in: only build the server if we find pthreads
642 * Makefile.in: realclean removes config.{cache,log,status}
644 Tue Sep 29 13:20:14 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
645 * Removed code from some of the utilities which was still attempting
646 to access the old non-gdbm data store.
647 * housekeeping.c: rewrote check_ref_counts() to do a ForEachRoom()
648 traversal instead of a MAXROOMS loop.
649 * sysdep.c: set up a dummy CitContext record to be used during server
650 startup, during which time there is no real context.
652 Mon Sep 28 23:51:51 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
653 * Implemented the function ForEachRoom() to handle all-rooms traversal
654 (this will work with both the old and new paradigms, because both
655 use a GDBM database with one room per record). Migrated all room
656 list commands to use it.
658 Mon Sep 28 22:05:35 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
659 * Implemented the function CtdlRoomAccess() to handle *all* of the
660 user-access-to-rooms functionality. Migrated all room list commands
661 to use it. Still need to migrate gotos.
663 1998-09-28 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
664 * configure.in, acconfig.h: new files; partially functional GNU
665 autoconf configure script. Run autoheader; autoconf; ./configure
666 --prefix=`pwd` to test.
667 * Makefile.tmpl: new file; this is what Makefile.in used to be. Used by
669 * Makefile.in: modified to work with autoconf-style configure script
670 * Configure: modified to use Makefile.tmpl and generate autoconf-style
671 macros. Removed procfs detection. Pass -O2 to gcc, -O to other
672 compilers. Removed mknod/mkfifo detection; code should use mkfifo(3).
673 * citmail.c, msgform.c, netproc.c, routines.c, support.c, userlist.c,
674 whobbs.c: use HAVE_STRERROR macro rather than NO_STRERROR
675 * commands.c: use HAVE_TERMIOS_H macro rather than POSIX_TERMIO
676 * netproc.c: remove procfs stuff. simply attempt to kill the target
677 process with signal zero instead; this checks whether the process
679 * setup.c, useradmin.c: use HAVE_CURSES_H macro
681 Sun Sep 27 23:41:29 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
682 * BOTH the old and new generation systems are being written to at
683 this point. Code that reads stuff is still using the old system.
685 Sun Sep 27 16:10:49 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
686 * Changed all "generation" variables from char to long, in preparation
687 for removing MAXROOMS. Generations for new rooms are now timestamps.
688 * Defined "struct visit" to hold user/room relationships.
689 * Removed some #define's from citadel.h that are no longer used.
691 Wed Sep 23 13:41:49 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
692 * More changes to support attachments. They mostly work, but only
693 in fixed-format messages.
695 Mon Sep 21 21:19:17 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
696 * msgbase.c: began laying the groundwork to support attachments.
697 Purchased Rogaine(tm) in preparation for expected hair loss.
699 1998-09-21 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
700 * msgbase.c: include dynloader.h
701 * citadelapi.h: removed
702 * dynloader.h: prototype CtdlRegisterUserHook()
704 Sun Sep 20 18:56:37 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
705 * Added a UserFunctionHook category to implement hooks which perform
706 operations on various users or usernames
708 Fri Sep 18 21:14:41 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
709 * citserver.c: removed cmd_extn() and related code
711 1998-09-18 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
712 * user_ops.c: include dynloader.h
713 * roomstats.{c,mk}: removed
714 * Configure, Makefile.in: autodependency-related fixes
716 Thu Sep 17 22:55:29 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
717 * Various changes to allow "new messages" to work correctly with Mail
719 Thu Sep 17 22:21:45 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
720 * server.h, dynloader.c, citserver.c, user_ops.c: reduced the number
721 of hook types by inventing an EventType field to the Session hook.
722 * proxy.c: added pre-fetching
724 1998-09-17 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
725 * Makefile.in: add SERV_MODULES and PROXY_TARGETS to `cleaner'
726 * dynloader.[ch], serv_{chat,test}.[ch], sysdep.c: cleaned
727 up the dynamic loader interface as follows:
728 - all the symbol table stuff is gone.
729 - modules are loaded once at server startup and never unloaded.
730 - Added a new function CtdlRegisterProtoHook() to handle the stuff
731 that was being done with the symbol tables.
732 - Dynamic_Module_Init() now returns a pointer to a static struct
733 DLModule_Info; this structure itself has been modified to use char*
734 fields instead of fixed char arrays.
735 * roomstats.c: include <stdarg.h> not <stdargs.h> (is this file still
737 * Configure, Makefile.in: added autodependency support
739 Wed Sep 16 22:25:13 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
740 * Implemented separate structs, lists, and functions for each type
741 of server-side hook available.
743 1998-09-16 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
744 * ipc_c_tcp.c: Fixed up some #include/prototyping stuff, call memcpy()
747 * sysdep.c, user_ops.c: removed reference to hooks.h
749 Wed Sep 16 11:42:42 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
750 * ipc_c_tcp.c: Reversed any changes that have been made to this file,
751 because something was causing abominally slow response time.
752 * proxy.c: added. This will eventually become a caching, pre-fetching
753 multiuser proxy server for the Citadel protocol.
755 1998-09-15 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
756 * Makefile.in: remove support.o from serv_chat.so, add -fPIC to compile
757 flags for serv_chat.o
758 * dynloader.c: include "sysdep_decls.h", use RTLD_NOW not RTLD_LAZY
759 * dynloader.h: prototype CtdlRegisterHook()
760 * .cvsignore: added data
762 Mon Sep 14 20:49:08 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
763 * Tried my hand at adding the ability for server extensions to
764 register various types of "hooks" in addition to just adding
765 server commands. This is probably not final.
767 Tue Sep 8 12:11:56 EDT 1998 Brian Costello <btx@calyx.net>
768 * Added support for dynamic server modules. Reworked serv_chat.c
771 Tue Sep 1 23:09:50 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
772 * userpurge.c: rewrote using functions from the server core, rather
773 than the now-defunct external API. This'll be ready once the module
774 loading code is done. (I just had to commit _something_ tonight.)
776 Mon Aug 31 22:47:58 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
777 * Yanked the citadelapi.c module. This wasn't working out well.
778 * techdocs/citadelapi.txt - began documenting the new API to be used
779 by modules which will be dynamic linked into the server - most of
780 this API is existing server functions.
781 * Added a ForEachUser() function with callback mechanism, and reworked
782 cmd_list() to use it.
784 Sun Aug 30 21:52:43 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
785 * Moved all of the gdbm databases to a separate "data" directory.
787 1998-08-26 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
788 * Makefile.in: realclean removes Makefile, fixed `touch citadel.h'
791 1998-08-25 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
792 * room_ops.c: include time.h
793 * userlist.c, whobbs.c, serv_chat.c, user_ops.c, sysdep.c, stats.c,
794 citadel_decls.h, commands.c, messages.h, routines.h, routines2.h:
795 remove duplicated declarations
797 Mon Aug 24 23:45:01 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
798 * setup.c: Removed yesno_s()
799 * citadel.h, room_ops.c: added QRmtime field to struct quickroom,
800 modified whenever a room is modified or posted in.
801 * citadelapi.c: Added CtdlForEachRoom() function
803 Mon Aug 24 20:04:04 EDT 1998 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
804 * Makefile.in: new target `cleaner' does the same as `realclean'
805 without removing sysdep.h
806 * proto.h: is bad. eliminate. I've moved the prototypes into several
807 header files, one per .c file
809 Mon Aug 24 00:45:55 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
810 * Added a CtdlGotoRoom() function to the CitadelAPI.
812 Sun Aug 23 21:47:00 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
813 * sysoputil is finally dead! Removed it from the build.
814 * Added userpurge.c server extension (initial implementation)
816 Tue Aug 18 00:42:33 EDT 1998 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
817 * Makefile.in: `clean' target no longer rm's sysdep.h; new target
818 `realclean' removes everything clean does, plus sysdep.h, plus
820 * Configure: add -Wstrict-prototypes to CFLAGS for gcc systems
821 * *.[ch]: protoized. Added several new header files containing
822 prototypes and other external declarations; many duplicated
823 declarations still should be moved to header files. proto.h must die
826 Mon Aug 17 23:52:13 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
827 * Implemented a bunch of user account related functions in the
830 Mon Aug 17 20:01:18 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
831 * Fixed the crash problem. It wasn't AGUP/ASUP, but rather a buffer
832 overrun in getuser() (thanks, Nathan). Implemented overrun checks
833 in getuser(), getroom(), and getfloor() to prevent future problems.
835 Mon Aug 17 00:06:52 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
836 * Updated citmail.c with the latest stuff from the production system.
837 * Implemented AGUP and ASUP commands, but AGUP crashes the server
838 after its first successful use (user-not-found's don't affect it).

841 * Got the CitadelAPI library to the point where the server can start
842 up an extension, and the extension will connect to the server, do
843 some initialization, call a user-supplied CtdlMain(), and exit. Also
844 hacked together a _temporary_ form of the new EXTN server command.
846 Wed Aug 5 23:02:22 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
847 * Second attempt at getting the server API started. Now it runs
848 outside of the server and builds a connection.

851 * Modified the appearance of Internet addresses when they arrive on
853 * Removed the <E> field from the message format writeup in hack.txt.
854 * Fixed-up citmail.c so that it doesn't try to do database lookups.
856 Mon Aug 3 23:01:37 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
857 * Started developing the server-side API. This is in its very
858 initial stages. See serverapi.c and techdoc/api.txt
