# $NetBSD: README,v 1.3 2003/11/12 13:31:07 grant Exp $

July 1995 - Ported to NetBSD by Gordon Ross <gwr@NetBSD.org>
|
|
|
|
Note: to build clnt.pcnfsd use the command:
|
|
make -f Makefile.clnt
|
|
|
|
Text of original README file from Sun follows:
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This is version @(#)README 1.6 1/28/92 of the pcnfsd README file.
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
This is the second cut at PCNFSD v2. All printing now uses the same
|
|
SVR4 based printing model: lp, lpstat, cancel. This implies SunOS 4.1
|
|
or later on a Sun. The printing hasn't been properly tested on SVR4,
|
|
since my SVR4 system is a bit quirky, but authentication via shadow
|
|
passwords works fine.
|
|
|
|
The Makefile supplied will build either SunOS 4.1 or SVR4 versions;
|
|
however you will need to tweak a couple of definitions. See the
|
|
Makefile for details.
|
|
|
|
For this round, I have frozen the rpcgen'd code and modified it by hand
|
|
to get around a few rpcgen deficiencies. If in doubt, you can take the
|
|
pcnfsd.x file included here off to a separate directory, rpcgen everything
|
|
up and diff against the versions given here.
|
|
|
|
You should also be sure to read the man page. I haven't tried [nt]roff'ing
|
|
this anywhere outside SunOS, so let me know if there are any quirks.
|
|
Note especially the /etc/pcnfsd.conf configuration model.
|
|
|
|
Standard disclaimers. Read the source for more of the same.

This is the first major spin since the version I posted in May.
|
|
Changes are described in the SCCS deltas, but anyone analysing
|
|
or porting this should watch for the following:
|
|
|
|
- Lots of SVR4 stuff. Look at the Makefile and common.h; you will
|
|
need to make sure that SVR4 is defined to build a version for SVR4.
|
|
- Fixed a major bug whereby aliased printers (a.k.a. virtual printers)
|
|
didn't show up in the printer list.
|
|
- Since some commands (especially lpq) can hang up forever if, say,
|
|
the host of a remote printer is down, the su_popen mechanism now
|
|
includes a watchdog timer. I HAVE NOT HAD A CHANCE TO TEST THIS
|
|
LOGIC ON SVR4 YET! The code was derived from the System V compatiility
|
|
section of the AnswerBook, so it _should_ be OK, but I can't wait to
|
|
test it before posting this.
|
|
- I've mades lots of lint-suggested improvements. It doesn't lint
|
|
100% cleanly yet, but it's a lot better.
|
|
- The client testbed has been tightened up a bit and the reporting
|
|
is somewhat clearer. Please run it.
|
|
|
|
Feedback is solicited.

This version includes support for TCP as well as UDP, both in the
|
|
server and in the test client. Some of the calls can have long
|
|
responses, in which case TCP is the preferred transport.

This release incorporates minor bug fixes occasioned by internal testing
|
|
against preliminary versions of PC-NFS subsystems which actually use the
|
|
V2 protocol features. It also addresses a security hole which was identified:
|
|
see the comment in pcnfsd_print.c for details. This is the version
|
|
of the daemon which we expect to send out for beta testing.

Several people pointed out that if I was going to fix the security
|
|
hole, I should *REALLY* fix it. So this revision checks every argument
|
|
for every shell metacharacter. This means that if your print subsystem
|
|
allows such characters in printer names, print job id's, user names,
|
|
etc. you're going to have to relax the restrictions or tighten up
|
|
elsewhere. The routine "suspicious()" in pcnfsd_print.c is the starting
|
|
point for this.

This version includes one more tweak on the previous security fix, plus
|
|
a fix for the "user shell" security hole.

Fix a stupid bug - the secondary groups array wasn't static, so it
|
|
got overwritten, resulting in the corruption of some GIDs.
