AUFS - AppleTalk to Unix File Server o RELEASE NOTES o Aufs, version 3.00, Feb. 1988 Introduction ------------ Aufs provides file service for a Mac client running AppleShare software. Aufs implements the AppleTalk Filing Protocol, as specified by protocol version 1.1, February 17, 1987. Though this version has been extensively tested, but definitely contain bugs - it is far to big not to. It does not incorporate all AFP 1.1 features. Aufs is currently being developed and tested under a modified Ultrix 2.0 system. Installation ============ See INSTALLATION in this directory for notes on installation. What Aufs Does ============= See the Aufs man page and see NOTES in this directory The actual design parameters are mapped in design.notes. MAJOR CHANGES since Version 2.0: Here's the big one: we finally realized that the .ADeskTop, .IDeskTop and .finderinfo files are NOT written in network order. This means you can't transport directly between machines with different byte orders! (Not tar, dump, or NFS). Aufs version 3 will destroy the old desktop files. Aufs version 3 will also rewrite the old .finderinfo files when it sees them. To ensure things are okay, rebuild your desktop. Accepts .afpvols if no afpvols. Provision has now been made to handle international character sets or rather "ascii"s that are different from what most people in the U.S. see. The idea (and tables) come from Dan Sahlin of the Swedish Institute of Computer Science. Turning on SMART_FINDERINFO in afpudb.c will yield more information; however, it is unix variant (BSD) dependent and slows things down considerably. Simple minded shutdown mechanism added. Disallow "." and ".." as file names. Kinetics Box too slow code dropped in favor of settable values. Update to use sun quota system properly
