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 33August 8, 1998: add detection support for NFS V.3 for NetBSD 1.3F. 34 35* Hannes Reinecke <hare@MathI.UNI-Heidelberg.DE> 36 37Back in 1995, contributed code for linux. A new parser for file system 38specific options that only exist under linux. 39 40* Leif Johansson <leifj@matematik.su.se> 41 42June 22, 1997: minor patch to ensure that systems without an RE library work. 43 44June 23, 1997: mount options should be properly comma limited. 45 46July 10, 1997: info_ldap.c and prototype changes to all map _init and _mtime 47functions.

Minor type wrt "ro" option in libamu/mount_fs.c. Added more 91fillers of mnttab options, for acdirmax, acdirmin, acregmax, acregmin, noac, 92grpid, nosuid, and actimo. 93 94August 15, 1998: fix memory leak in processing of /defaults, and avoid 95accessing uninitialized memory in osf1. 96 97* Roman Hodek <Roman.Hodek@informatik.uni-erlangen.de> 98 99July 23, 1997: Got lots of patches from the Debian Linux folks, who fixed 100several generic bugs, and one serious one for Linux. The latter involved 101using connected sockets for NFS mounts on kernels 1.3.10 and older. Roman's 102work is baed on amd-upl102, and work from Ian Murdock <imurdock@debian.org> 103and Dominik Kubla <dominik@debian.org>. 104 105* Rainer Orth <ro@TechFak.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> 106 107August 6, 1997: assorted fixes to support hesiod-1.3, solaris 2.4 (which I 108already fixed but did not release yet), and support for $LDFLAGS at 109configure/compile time. 110 111February 24, 1998: lots of patches for ultrix 4.3 port. 112 113February 28, 1998: lots of documentation fixes! 114 115* Jason Thorpe <thorpej@nas.nasa.gov> 116 117August 25, 1997: make amd work when talking to NIS+ servers in NIS 118compatibility mode. Fix originally came from Matthieu Herrb 119<matthieu@laas.fr>. 120 121* Chris Metcalf <metcalf@catfish.lcs.mit.edu> 122 123August 29, 1997: patch to make amd use FQHN for NFS/RPC authentication, 124useful esp. for cross-domain NFS mounts. 125September 2, 1997: if plock() succeeded, don't display errno string. 126 127* Enami Tsugutomo <enami@cv.sony.co.jp> 128 129September 4, 1997: don't ping remote servers with NFS V.3 always, but V.2, 130regardless of client's NFS version. (conf/transp/transp_sockets.c) 131 132* Dan Riley <dsr@mail.lns.cornell.edu> 133 134September 19, 1997: make sure that amd works with more secure portmappers 135that do not allow forwarding of RPC messages to other services. 136 137* Wolfgang Rupprecht <wolfgang@wsrcc.com> 138 139August 10, 1997: netbsd and other bsd systems have a mask flag for 140pcfs_args (msdos mount). 141 142* Christos Zoulas <christos@deshaw.com> 143 144September 25, 1997: fix to initialize uid/gid fields of pcfs_args_t on 145netbsd. 146 147October 10, 1997: compile time cleanups of printf()s in hlfsd code.
