1# -*- text -*- 2PRIMARY AUTHORS AND MAJOR CONTRIBUTORS TO AM_UTILS: 3 4Original authors of amd were the Berkeley team and especially Jan-Simon 5Pendry. Since then many people have contributed patches. 6 7This file lists the ones who contributed major code changes, in no 8particular order, and I thank them all. This is of course not to diminish 9the smaller contributes of the many others. Thank you all. 10 11* Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu> 12 13The most significant changes were made by Erez Zadok in terms of bug fixes, 14ports, and new features added. Erez Zadok is the current maintainer of 15am-utils, as of January 1997. 16 17There is a mailing list dedicated to developers of am-utils. To subscribe 18to it, send mail to majordomo@majordomo.cs.columbia.edu, with the body of 19the message having the single line "subscribe amd-dev". 20 21* Randall S. Winchester <rsw@glue.umd.edu> 22 23May 7, 1997: contributed a special version of upl102 that included NFS V.3 24support. Some of the code was contributed by Christos Zoulas 25<christos@deshaw.com>. I (Erez) ported these changes to am-utils. 26 27September 12, 1997: lots of small prototype cleanups and fixes to numerous 28files. 29 30January 27, 1998: support pid files in the amd.conf file. Provide base name 31for hesiod zone files. Always use /etc/amd.conf if exists. 32 33* Hannes Reinecke <hare@MathI.UNI-Heidelberg.DE> 34 35Back in 1995, contributed code for linux. A new parser for file system 36specific options that only exist under linux. 37 38* Leif Johansson <leifj@matematik.su.se> 39 40June 22, 1997: minor patch to ensure that systems without an RE library work. 41 42June 23, 1997: mount options should be properly comma limited. 43 44July 10, 1997: info_ldap.c and prototype changes to all map _init and _mtime 45functions.

Later on, more code 54contribued to optimize the best combination of proto/vers. 55 56July 4, 1997: patches to get NFS V.3 working under irix5. 57 58September 9, 1997: initialize all fields of mntent_t structures to 0. 59 60October 2, 1997: don't log an RPC timeout as an error but only as an info 61message. 62 63December 19, 1997: detected an FMR (Free Memory Read) in amd/mntfs.c, 64uninit_mntfs(). 65 66* Danny Braniss <danny@cs.huji.ac.il> 67 68July, 6 1997: contributed patches to hesiod on bsdi3. 69 70* Tom Schmidt <tschmidt@micron.com> 71 72July 10, 1997: Recommdation to include libgdbm if libc has no dbm_open. 73Patches for netgrp(host) command.

Riley <dsr@mail.lns.cornell.edu> 83 84July 11, 1997: fixes to DU-4.0 to support string POSIX.1 signals, and struct 85sockaddr with sa_len field. 86 87July 13, 1997: Move amd.conf parsing to before switch_option() on log/debug 88options. Minor type wrt "ro" option in libamu/mount_fs.c. Added more 89fillers of mnttab options, for acdirmax, acdirmin, acregmax, acregmin, noac, 90grpid, nosuid, and actimo. 91 92* Roman Hodek <Roman.Hodek@informatik.uni-erlangen.de> 93 94July 23, 1997: Got lots of patches from the Debian Linux folks, who fixed 95several generic bugs, and one serious one for Linux. The latter involved 96using connected sockets for NFS mounts on kernels 1.3.10 and older. Roman's 97work is baed on amd-upl102, and work from Ian Murdock <imurdock@debian.org> 98and Dominik Kubla <dominik@debian.org>. 99 100* Rainer Orth <ro@TechFak.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> 101 102August 6, 1997: assorted fixes to support hesiod-1.3, solaris 2.4 (which I 103already fixed but did not release yet), and support for $LDFLAGS at 104configure/compile time. 105 106February 24, 1998: lots of patches for ultrix 4.3 port. 107 108February 28, 1998: lots of documentation fixes! 109 110* Jason Thorpe <thorpej@nas.nasa.gov> 111 112August 25, 1997: make amd work when talking to NIS+ servers in NIS 113compatibility mode.
