openafs 1.6.6~pre2-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

openafs (1.6.6~pre2-1) unstable; urgency=low


  * New upstream pre-release.
    - Linux kernels up to 3.12 are now supported, including kernels with
      user namespace support enabled (which affects Debian's 3.12-1 kernel
      and newer).
    - Fixed core dumps into AFS with current kernels.
    - When starting the client fails, backing device information created
      in sysfs is now properly cleared.
    - The AFS mountpoint specified in the cacheinfo file must now be an
      absolute path.
    - Stop tracking file locks on read-only volumes.  Write locks always
      fail and read locks always succeed.
    - New fs flushall command to discard all cached data.
    - Fixed a bug that could cause the client to incorrectly believe its
      cache was up to date.
    - New -rxmaxfrags switch to afsd to limit the number of UDP fragments
      sent or received per RX packet.
    - Fixed afsd threads entering an infinite loop.
    - The file server now ignores any vice partitions with a NeverAttach
      flag file present in the root directory.
    - Enabled server-side NAT pings to refresh NAT timeouts.
    - Forcing file server CPS recalculation (for IP ACLs) is now
      restricted to administrators.
    - vos examine of a volume in a transaction is now shown as busy again
      rather than off-line.
    - Multiple bug fixes to the salvager.
    - Fixed a bug that could cause state information to be discarded when
      restarting a large or busy file server.
    - Fixed a vlserver bug during file server address registration.
    - volserver supports a new -preserve-vol-stats option, which preserves
      access statistics across volume restore and reclone operations.
    - Releasing a volume after adding a new RO site no longer touches the
      existing RO sites if the volume has not changed since the last
      release.
    - Fixed undefined ptserver behavior with too many allocated PTS ids.
    - Avoid redefining assert in public header files.
    - Documentation, diagnostics, and error message improvements.

Binary packages built by this source

libafsauthent1: AFS distributed file system runtime library (authentication)

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides the shared library implementing AFS client
 authentication and token management.

libafsrpc1: AFS distributed file system runtime library (RPC layer)

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides the shared library implementing the Rx protocol and
 other AFS RPC functionality.

libkopenafs1: AFS distributed file system runtime library (PAGs)

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides the shared library implementing an interface to
 manipulating AFS process authentication groups (PAGs). It provides the
 a subset of the interface provided by the Heimdal libkafs library.

libopenafs-dev: AFS distributed filesystem development libraries

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides static development libraries and headers
 needed to compile AFS applications.

libpam-openafs-kaserver: AFS distributed filesystem kaserver PAM module

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides a PAM module for existing sites using the AFS
 kaserver for authentication. New sites should use a Kerberos v5
 implementation, a Kerberos v5 PAM module such as libpam-krb5, and
 libpam-afs-session.

openafs-client: AFS distributed filesystem client support

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides basic client support to mount and manipulate
 AFS. If your site uses Kerberos v5 authentication for AFS, you will also
 want to install openafs-krb5.

openafs-dbg: AFS distributed filesystem debugging information

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package contains the debugging information for the OpenAFS
 server binaries (the openafs-fileserver and openafs-dbserver packages).

openafs-dbserver: AFS distributed filesystem database server

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides AFS database server binaries. It should be
 installed on the servers that will act as volume location and
 protection servers.

openafs-doc: AFS distributed filesystem documentation

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of files
 among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access control,
 authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package contains the OpenAFS user's and reference manuals, some
 protocol documentation, and other OpenAFS documentation.

openafs-fileserver: AFS distributed filesystem file server

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides the AFS fileserver binaries. It should be
 installed on any machine that will export files into AFS.

openafs-fuse: AFS distributed file system experimental FUSE client

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides an experimental FUSE implementation of the AFS
 client as afsd.fuse. This currently only provides read-only access to
 AFS, doesn't work with all of the normal AFS client programs, and must be
 started manually, but may be of interest in situations where read-only
 access is sufficient and the kernel module cannot be built.

openafs-kpasswd: AFS distributed filesystem old password changing

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides kpasswd and kas, utilities needed by the OpenAFS
 kaserver to create users and change passwords. Only install this package
 if you are already using kaserver; generally you should not install this
 package for new cells or for cells using Kerberos v5.

openafs-krb5: AFS distributed filesystem Kerberos 5 integration

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of files
 among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access control,
 authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .
 This package provides aklog, a utility for authenticating to AFS using
 Kerberos 5. It also provides asetkey, a utility to set AFS server keys
 from a Kerberos keytab, and ka-forwarder, a utility to forward kaserver
 requests to a KDC using fakeka.

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
 .

 AFS is a distributed filesystem allowing cross-platform sharing of
 files among multiple computers. Facilities are provided for access
 control, authentication, backup and administrative management.
