installed copy if the new copy is the same. `install -C' would actually
work right if `strip' is already installed, but the Makefile doesn't
know that and has to work for plain `install'.
Stripping should be done by default at link time, but complications
would still be required for installing `strip' in case the default is
overridden.

This should probably get pulled into 2.0.6 and 2.1.0

allowing external documents to link to a more or less fixed target,
rather that the numbered files which can change whenever the target

The version 2 support has been tested (client+server) against FreeBSD-2.0,
IRIX 5.3 and FreeBSD-current (using a loopback mount). The version 2 support
is stable AFAIK.
The version 3 support has been tested with a loopback mount and minimally
against an IRIX 5.3 server. It needs more testing and may have problems.
I have patched amd to support the new variable length filehandles although
it will still only use version 2 of the protocol.

password strings when DES isn't used; somehow the encrypted password
is corrupted and it winds up containing control chars, which yppasswdd
subsequently rejects. This breaks yppasswd on non-DES FreeBSD systems
using NIS.
Fix: scrap getnewyppasswd() entirely and use getnewpasswd() from
local_password.c, since it already works properly and is virtually
identical to getnewyppasswd() anyway. (Wish I'd noticed this sooner.)

Of course, chpass has a much more severe bug in it, which is that it
allows users to change their password database info without first
asking them for their password. I hope to fix this at some point
so that I can merge ypchpass, ypchfn, ypchsh and chpass into one
program (password authentication is required for changing NIS data).

that it can't contact an NIS server when asked to change the password
of an invalid user. It should say 'unknown user' instead.
The fix is to check for the _PW_KEYYPENABLED flag in the password
database and only roll over into the yppasswd stuff if the flag
is enabled (this means passwd will not behave as yppasswd if
there are no +::::::::: entries in /etc/master.passwd). If
NIS is enabled but the user says 'passwd -l foouser' where
foouser exists in the NIS maps, but not in /etc/master.passwd,
we also say 'unknown user.' This is so we don't outsmart ourselves:
specifying the -l flag restricts passwd to the local password database
even if NIS is enabled.
This change should probably be merged into 2.1.
- Moved to a more client-driven model. We aggressively attempt to keep
the default domain bound (as before) but we give up on non-default
domains if we lose contact with a server and fail to get a response
after one round of broadcasting. This helps drastically reduce the
amount of network bandwitdh that ypbind consumes: if a client references
the secondary domain at some later point, this will prod ypbind into
establishing a new binding anyway, so continuously broadcasting without
need is pointless.
Note that we still actively seek out a binding for our default domain
even if no client program has queried us yet. I'm not exactly sure if
this matches SunOS's behavior or not, but I decided to do it this way
since we can get into all sorts of trouble if our default domain comes
unbound. Even so, we're still much quieter than we used to be.
- Removed a bunch of no-longer pertinent comments and a couple of
chunks of #ifdef 0'ed code that no longer fit in to the new layout.
- Theo deRaadt must have become frustrated with the callback mechanism
in clnt_broadcast(), because he shamelessly stole the clnt_broadcast()
code right out of the RPC library and hacked it up to suit his needs.
(Comments and all! :)
I can understand why: clnt_broadcast() blocks while awaiting replies.
Changing this behavior requires surgery. However, you can work around
this: fork the broadcast into a child process and relay the results
back to the parent via a pipe. (Careful obervation has shown that the
SunOS ypbind forks children for broadcasting too, though I can only
guess what sort of interprocess communication it uses. pipe() seems to
do the job well enough.)
This may seem like the long way around, but it's not really that
hard to implement, and I'd prefer to use documented RPC library functions
wherever possible. We're careful to limit the number of simultaneous
broadcasters to avoid swamping the system (the current limit is 5).
Each clnt_broadcast() call only sends out a small number of packets
at increasing intervals. We're also careful not to spawn more than one
bradcaster for a given domain.
- Used clntudp_bufcreate() and clnt_call() to implement a ping()
function for directly querying a particular server so that we can
check if it's still alive. This lets me completely remove the old
bradcasting code and use actual RPC library calls instead, at the
cost of more than a few handfulls of torn-out hair. (Make no mistake
folks: I *HATE* RPC.) Currently, the ping interval is one minute.
- Fixed another potential 'nfds too big for select()' bug: use
_rpc_dtablesize() instead of getdtablesize().
- Quieted gcc -Wall a bit.
- Probably a bunch of other stuff that I've forgotten.
ypbind.8:
- Updated man page to reflect modifications.
ypwhich.c:
- Small mind-o fix from last time: decode error results from
ypbind correctly (*groan*)
yplib.c:
- same as above
- Change behavior of _yp_dobind() a little: if we get back a 'Domain
not bound' error for a given domain, retry a few times before giving
up and passing the error back to the caller. We have to sleep for a
few seconds between tries since the 'Domain not bound' error comes
back immediately (by repeatedly looping, we end up pounding on ypbind).
We retry at most 20 times at 5 second intervals. This gives us a full
minute to get a response. This seems to deviate a bit from SunOS
behavior -- it appears to wait forever -- but I don't like the idea
of perpetually hanging inside a library call.
Note that this should fix the problems some people have with bindings
not being established fast enough at boot time; sometimes amd is started
in /etc/rc after ypbind has run but before it gets a binding set up. The
automounter gets annoyed at this and tends to exit. By pausing ther YP
calls until a binding is ready, we avoid this situation.
- Another _yp_dobind() change: if we determine that our binding files
are unlocked or nonexistent, jump directly to code that pokes ypbind
into restablishing the binding. Again, if it fails, we'll time out
eventually and return.
