1 1998-10-24 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
2 * Makefile.in: Auto dependency generation (may require GNU make, but
3 does at least function without this feature on OSF/1 make);
4 Makefile is regenerated when Makefile.in changes (ditto);
5 `realclean' is now known as `distclean';
6 portability fixes for older Unix make utilities
8 Fri Oct 23 19:34:38 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

16 * proxy.c: added configurability and primitive message expiry
18 1998-10-20 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
19 * Makefile.tmpl: fix to build client with old Configure script
20 * configure.in: autologin defaults to enabled if crypt() is available
21 * room_ops.c: fix improper null-termination bug I introduced
23 Mon Oct 19 20:52:55 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

25 the user has prompting turned off (citadel.rc option)
27 1998-10-16 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
28 * sysdep.c (cprintf): generate a newline on truncated buffer
29 * room_ops.c: exploitable overrun fixes
31 Thu Oct 15 19:27:32 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
32 * msgbase.c: reimplemented cmd_move()
33 room_ops.c: wrote AddMessageToRoom() which is used for both entering
35 * setup.c: system-default message expire policy of "number of
36 messages, 150" is now a default configuration instead of a temp hack
37 * proxy.c: cache dir create now dies on any error except EEXIST
39 Wed Oct 14 22:41:16 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
42 1998-10-13 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
43 * configure.in: don't check for -lcrypt unless autologin is enabled

48 * dynloader.c: Made dynamically added server commands case-insensitive
49 * import.c is now serv_upgrade.c, a module
50 * Removed most of the "level 9" trace messages no longer needed
52 1998-10-12 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
53 * Makefile.in: simplified to use pattern rules; files compiled with
54 -D_REENTRANT go to *.ro to allow the same files to be used with both
56 * tools.c, tools.h: new files; misc routines used by both client and
57 server go here. contains safestrncpy() at the moment.
58 * rooms.c: fix several exploitable buffer overruns
59 * sysdep.c: fix infinite loop when long lines are received from the
60 client; fix exploitable buffer overrun in cprintf()
61 * ipc_c_tcp.c: fix infinite loop on long line from server
62 * serv_upgrade.sh: remove uncnsrd-dependent absolute path
63 * .cvsignore: add *.ro
65 Sun Oct 11 23:17:48 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
66 * Built some more of the message expiry infrastructure
68 1998-10-11 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
69 * citserver.c: fix two more overruns, one of which was preventing
70 the "From Host" from showing up in the <W>ho listing.
72 Sun Oct 11 02:51:55 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
73 * Moved "struct visit" and its associated defs from citadel.h to
74 server.h where they belong
75 * Set up data structures for room policies (expiry, etc.)
77 1998-10-10 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
78 * citserver.c: fix overrun which caused segv's on servers with long
81 Fri Oct 9 18:34:06 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
82 * user_ops.c: added PurgeStaleRelationships() to do processing at
83 session logout time to remove visits for rooms which no longer exist
84 * user_ops.c: implemented NewMailCount()
86 1998-10-09 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
87 * serv_chat.c: fix buffer overrun that was resulting in segv's
88 * serv_chat.c: fix another overrun that could cause sessions to hang,
89 and cleaned up some other strncpy()-related stuff. DON'T FORGET TO
90 NULL-TERMINATE DESTINATION BUFFERS AFTER STRNCPY CALLS.
92 Fri Oct 9 13:22:37 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
93 * Implemented "lazy mode" traversal - pressing the space bar will do
94 <N>ext messsage, <G>oto next room, or read <N>ew as appropriate.
95 * room_ops.c: modify CtdlRoomAccess() to allow access to mailbox rooms
98 Thu Oct 8 17:13:27 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
99 * messages.c, citadel.rc: added the ability to display message numbers
100 in the header when reading messages. I think this is butt ugly, but
101 some of the DaveCode afficionados seem to like it...
103 Thu Oct 8 15:34:45 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
104 * room_ops.c: Added is_noneditable() function to replace all of the
105 duplicated code present in all functions which edit room parameters.
107 1998-10-08 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
108 * lots of warning fixes; builds with -std1 on dec unix
109 * aidepost.c, citadel.h, citmail.c, file_ops.c, msgbase.c, netmailer.c,
110 netproc.c, rcit.c, server.h, stats.c, userlist.c: use time_t where
112 * control.c, room_ops.c, serv_chat.c, sysdep.c: use memset() instead of
114 * dynloader.c, dynloader.h, messages.c, server.h, sysdep.c,
115 sysdep_decls.h: function pointer/prototyping fixes
116 * rooms.c: use mkfifo(3) instead of system("mkfifo")
118 1998-10-07 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
119 * snprintf.c, snprintf.h: new files
120 * Makefile.in, configure.in, dynloader.c, sysdep.c: support for the
121 above; citserver now builds and runs on Digital Unix 4.0d with the
122 GNU-style configure script. there is a bug with the hostname display
124 * netproc.c: sillyness fix
125 * room_ops.h: prototype delete_room()
126 * client_chat.c, commands.c, serv_chat.c, sysdep.c:
127 use HAVE_SYS_SELECT_H macro
129 Mon Oct 5 17:01:32 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
130 * Began fixing the stuff I broke
132 Sun Oct 4 23:35:18 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
133 * Did the big migration to the new data structures. Lots of stuff is
134 now broken. Basic moving from room to room works, but Mail is
135 broken, and some of the administrative commands are unimplemented.
137 1998-10-02 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
138 * configure.in: autologin now defaults to disabled
140 Fri Oct 2 00:04:31 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
141 * Finally removed all three usersupp.foo[MAXROOMS] elements, and
142 migrated all the code that used them to use "struct visit" instead.
144 Thu Oct 1 23:02:20 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
145 * Rewrote [l][get|put]room() functions to use room names rather than
146 room index numbers. Temporarily prepended a "n" to these four
147 function names until they are put to use.
149 Thu Oct 1 16:27:13 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
150 * Removed a few more references to usersupp.lastseen[]
152 1998-10-01 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
153 * .cvsignore: add so_locations (generated by osf1 ld with shared libs)
154 * Makefile.in: restructured variables for greater consistency, use
155 @echo to print out notices during the make process, add so_locations
157 * configure.in, Makefile.in: configure checks for -rdynamic
158 * ipc_c_tcp.c: fix DEC compiler warning wrt unsigned char
159 * stats.c: add semicolon to placate DREC compiler
160 * user_ops.c: define _POSIX_C_SOURCE, include <limits.h>
161 * configure.in: pass -pthread to DEC compiler, don't check for
162 libpthread[s] on DEC Unix
164 1998-09-30 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
165 * Makefile.in: new variable PTHREAD_DEFS for portability
166 * aidepost.c, citadel.c, citmail.c, mailinglist.c, msgform.c,
167 netmailer.c, netpoll.c, netproc.c, rcit.c, readlog.c, setup.c,
168 stats.c, userlist.c, whobbs.c: return type of main() is int
169 * citadel.c, commands.c, messages.c: use time_t properly
170 * citserver.c: include <limits.h>
171 * config.guess, config.sub, install-sh: new files
172 * configure.in: don't use gcc on Digital Unix
174 Tue Sep 29 23:17:34 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
175 * room_ops.c: modified usergoto() to look at the new data structures
176 for counting new messages and such.
178 1998-09-29 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
179 * user_ops.c: fix compiler warning and potential memory leak,
181 * configure.in, Makefile.in: only build the server if we find pthreads
182 * Makefile.in: realclean removes config.{cache,log,status}
184 Tue Sep 29 13:20:14 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
185 * Removed code from some of the utilities which was still attempting
186 to access the old non-gdbm data store.
187 * housekeeping.c: rewrote check_ref_counts() to do a ForEachRoom()
188 traversal instead of a MAXROOMS loop.
189 * sysdep.c: set up a dummy CitContext record to be used during server
190 startup, during which time there is no real context.
192 Mon Sep 28 23:51:51 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
193 * Implemented the function ForEachRoom() to handle all-rooms traversal
194 (this will work with both the old and new paradigms, because both
195 use a GDBM database with one room per record). Migrated all room
196 list commands to use it.
198 Mon Sep 28 22:05:35 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
199 * Implemented the function CtdlRoomAccess() to handle *all* of the
200 user-access-to-rooms functionality. Migrated all room list commands
201 to use it. Still need to migrate gotos.
203 1998-09-28 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
204 * configure.in, acconfig.h: new files; partially functional GNU
205 autoconf configure script. Run autoheader; autoconf; ./configure
206 --prefix=`pwd` to test.
207 * Makefile.tmpl: new file; this is what Makefile.in used to be. Used by
209 * Makefile.in: modified to work with autoconf-style configure script
210 * Configure: modified to use Makefile.tmpl and generate autoconf-style
211 macros. Removed procfs detection. Pass -O2 to gcc, -O to other
212 compilers. Removed mknod/mkfifo detection; code should use mkfifo(3).
213 * citmail.c, msgform.c, netproc.c, routines.c, support.c, userlist.c,
214 whobbs.c: use HAVE_STRERROR macro rather than NO_STRERROR
215 * commands.c: use HAVE_TERMIOS_H macro rather than POSIX_TERMIO
216 * netproc.c: remove procfs stuff. simply attempt to kill the target
217 process with signal zero instead; this checks whether the process
219 * setup.c, useradmin.c: use HAVE_CURSES_H macro
221 Sun Sep 27 23:41:29 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
222 * BOTH the old and new generation systems are being written to at
223 this point. Code that reads stuff is still using the old system.
225 Sun Sep 27 16:10:49 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
226 * Changed all "generation" variables from char to long, in preparation
227 for removing MAXROOMS. Generations for new rooms are now timestamps.
228 * Defined "struct visit" to hold user/room relationships.
229 * Removed some #define's from citadel.h that are no longer used.
231 Wed Sep 23 13:41:49 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
232 * More changes to support attachments. They mostly work, but only
233 in fixed-format messages.
235 Mon Sep 21 21:19:17 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
236 * msgbase.c: began laying the groundwork to support attachments.
237 Purchased Rogaine(tm) in preparation for expected hair loss.
239 1998-09-21 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
240 * msgbase.c: include dynloader.h
241 * citadelapi.h: removed
242 * dynloader.h: prototype CtdlRegisterUserHook()
244 Sun Sep 20 18:56:37 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
245 * Added a UserFunctionHook category to implement hooks which perform
246 operations on various users or usernames
248 Fri Sep 18 21:14:41 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
249 * citserver.c: removed cmd_extn() and related code
251 1998-09-18 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
252 * user_ops.c: include dynloader.h
253 * roomstats.{c,mk}: removed
254 * Configure, Makefile.in: autodependency-related fixes
256 Thu Sep 17 22:55:29 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
257 * Various changes to allow "new messages" to work correctly with Mail
259 Thu Sep 17 22:21:45 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
260 * server.h, dynloader.c, citserver.c, user_ops.c: reduced the number
261 of hook types by inventing an EventType field to the Session hook.
262 * proxy.c: added pre-fetching
264 1998-09-17 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
265 * Makefile.in: add SERV_MODULES and PROXY_TARGETS to `cleaner'
266 * dynloader.[ch], serv_{chat,test}.[ch], sysdep.c: cleaned
267 up the dynamic loader interface as follows:
268 - all the symbol table stuff is gone.
269 - modules are loaded once at server startup and never unloaded.
270 - Added a new function CtdlRegisterProtoHook() to handle the stuff
271 that was being done with the symbol tables.
272 - Dynamic_Module_Init() now returns a pointer to a static struct
273 DLModule_Info; this structure itself has been modified to use char*
274 fields instead of fixed char arrays.
275 * roomstats.c: include <stdarg.h> not <stdargs.h> (is this file still
277 * Configure, Makefile.in: added autodependency support
279 Wed Sep 16 22:25:13 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
280 * Implemented separate structs, lists, and functions for each type
281 of server-side hook available.
283 1998-09-16 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
284 * ipc_c_tcp.c: Fixed up some #include/prototyping stuff, call memcpy()
287 * sysdep.c, user_ops.c: removed reference to hooks.h
289 Wed Sep 16 11:42:42 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
290 * ipc_c_tcp.c: Reversed any changes that have been made to this file,
291 because something was causing abominally slow response time.
292 * proxy.c: added. This will eventually become a caching, pre-fetching
293 multiuser proxy server for the Citadel protocol.
295 1998-09-15 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
296 * Makefile.in: remove support.o from serv_chat.so, add -fPIC to compile
297 flags for serv_chat.o
298 * dynloader.c: include "sysdep_decls.h", use RTLD_NOW not RTLD_LAZY
299 * dynloader.h: prototype CtdlRegisterHook()
300 * .cvsignore: added data
302 Mon Sep 14 20:49:08 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
303 * Tried my hand at adding the ability for server extensions to
304 register various types of "hooks" in addition to just adding
305 server commands. This is probably not final.
307 Tue Sep 8 12:11:56 EDT 1998 Brian Costello <btx@calyx.net>
308 * Added support for dynamic server modules. Reworked serv_chat.c
311 Tue Sep 1 23:09:50 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
312 * userpurge.c: rewrote using functions from the server core, rather
313 than the now-defunct external API. This'll be ready once the module
314 loading code is done. (I just had to commit _something_ tonight.)
316 Mon Aug 31 22:47:58 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
317 * Yanked the citadelapi.c module. This wasn't working out well.
318 * techdocs/citadelapi.txt - began documenting the new API to be used
319 by modules which will be dynamic linked into the server - most of
320 this API is existing server functions.
321 * Added a ForEachUser() function with callback mechanism, and reworked
322 cmd_list() to use it.
324 Sun Aug 30 21:52:43 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
325 * Moved all of the gdbm databases to a separate "data" directory.
327 1998-08-26 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
328 * Makefile.in: realclean removes Makefile, fixed `touch citadel.h'
331 1998-08-25 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
332 * room_ops.c: include time.h
333 * userlist.c, whobbs.c, serv_chat.c, user_ops.c, sysdep.c, stats.c,
334 citadel_decls.h, commands.c, messages.h, routines.h, routines2.h:
335 remove duplicated declarations
337 Mon Aug 24 23:45:01 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
338 * setup.c: Removed yesno_s()
339 * citadel.h, room_ops.c: added QRmtime field to struct quickroom,
340 modified whenever a room is modified or posted in.
341 * citadelapi.c: Added CtdlForEachRoom() function
343 Mon Aug 24 20:04:04 EDT 1998 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
344 * Makefile.in: new target `cleaner' does the same as `realclean'
345 without removing sysdep.h
346 * proto.h: is bad. eliminate. I've moved the prototypes into several
347 header files, one per .c file
349 Mon Aug 24 00:45:55 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
350 * Added a CtdlGotoRoom() function to the CitadelAPI.
352 Sun Aug 23 21:47:00 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
353 * sysoputil is finally dead! Removed it from the build.
354 * Added userpurge.c server extension (initial implementation)
356 Tue Aug 18 00:42:33 EDT 1998 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
357 * Makefile.in: `clean' target no longer rm's sysdep.h; new target
358 `realclean' removes everything clean does, plus sysdep.h, plus
360 * Configure: add -Wstrict-prototypes to CFLAGS for gcc systems
361 * *.[ch]: protoized. Added several new header files containing
362 prototypes and other external declarations; many duplicated
363 declarations still should be moved to header files. proto.h must die
366 Mon Aug 17 23:52:13 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
367 * Implemented a bunch of user account related functions in the
370 Mon Aug 17 20:01:18 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
371 * Fixed the crash problem. It wasn't AGUP/ASUP, but rather a buffer
372 overrun in getuser() (thanks, Nathan). Implemented overrun checks
373 in getuser(), getroom(), and getfloor() to prevent future problems.
375 Mon Aug 17 00:06:52 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
376 * Updated citmail.c with the latest stuff from the production system.
377 * Implemented AGUP and ASUP commands, but AGUP crashes the server
378 after its first successful use (user-not-found's don't affect it).
380 Thu Aug 6 19:25:01 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
381 * Got the CitadelAPI library to the point where the server can start
382 up an extension, and the extension will connect to the server, do
383 some initialization, call a user-supplied CtdlMain(), and exit. Also
384 hacked together a _temporary_ form of the new EXTN server command.
386 Wed Aug 5 23:02:22 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
387 * Second attempt at getting the server API started. Now it runs
388 outside of the server and builds a connection.
390 Tue Aug 4 18:33:06 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
391 * Modified the appearance of Internet addresses when they arrive on
393 * Removed the <E> field from the message format writeup in hack.txt.
394 * Fixed-up citmail.c so that it doesn't try to do database lookups.
396 Mon Aug 3 23:01:37 EDT 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
397 * Started developing the server-side API. This is in its very
398 initial stages. See serverapi.c and techdoc/api.txt
400 1998-08-02 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
401 * Makefile.in: added config_decls.h to dependencies
403 Sun Aug 2 21:09:09 EDT 1998 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
404 * config_defs.h: renamed to config_decls.h
405 * config.c, sysoputil.c: updated to reflect the above
407 Sun Aug 2 18:52:05 EDT 1998 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
408 * config_defs.h: new file, contains external declarations from config.c
409 * config.c: moved defs to config_defs.h, use PATH_MAX from <limits.h>
410 for bbs_home_directory
411 * mailinglist.c, support.c: include <string.h>
412 * sysoputil.c: include <string.h>, <limits.h>, "config_defs.h", remove
413 duplicated defs, replace gets() call with fgets()
414 * user_ops.c: define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
416 Sat Aug 1 18:32:52 EDT 1998 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
