code, as this used the NetBSD<5-style variable effective ifreq length.
The patched code works in old and new compilation environments. Patch
optimized by gimpy@.
and reverted by patches, some of them were already present in (now
removed) patches; plus:
- Changed the names of commands from adsl-* to pppoe-* to more logically
name the scripts.
- Make the userland pppoe daemon run as "nobody" if possible, once session
has started.
- Make userland pppoe program somewhat safe if it is installed SUID or
SGID. Note that I still do *NOT* recommend a SUID/SGID pppoe.
- Fix long-standing bug in pppoe-server that passed arguments to pppd in the
wrong order.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.
under share/examples/rc.d. The variable name already was named
RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR.
This is from ideas from Greg Woods and others.
Also bumped PKGREVISION for all packages using RCD_SCRIPTS mechanism
(as requested by wiz).
the RCD_SCRIPTS rc.d script(s) to the PLIST.
This GENERATE_PLIST idea is part of Greg A. Woods'
PR #22954.
This helps when the RC_SCRIPTS are installed to
a different ${RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR}. (Later,
the default RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR will be changed
to be more clear that they are the examples.)
These patches also remove the etc/rc.d/ scripts from PLISTs
(of packages that use RCD_SCRIPTS). (This also removes
now unused references from openssh* makefiles. Note that
qmail package has not been changed yet.)
I have been doing automatic PLIST registration for RC_SCRIPTS
for over a year. Not all of these packages have been tested,
but many have been tested and used.
Somethings maybe to do:
- a few packages still manually install the rc.d scripts to
hard-coded etc/rc.d. These need to be fixed.
- maybe remove from mk/${OPSYS}.pkg.dist mtree specifications too.
have it be automatically included by bsd.pkg.mk if USE_PKGINSTALL is set
to "YES". This enforces the requirement that bsd.pkg.install.mk be
included at the end of a package Makefile. Idea suggested by Julio M.
Merino Vidal <jmmv at menta.net>.
- Fixes for compilation on Solaris.
- INCOMPATIBILITY WITH EARLIER VERSIONS:
Kernel-mode plugin now is built against latest CVS ppp source rather than
Michal Ostrowski's patched version. If you use kernel-mode PPPoE, you
MUST use the CVS version of the ppp source code with rp-pppoe 3.4.
- Print PPPoE session number when connection terminates. Thanks to
Alexander Dalloz for suggesting this.
- Fixed a bug in MSS clamping -- it now works with protocol-field compression.
Thanks to Gerd v. Egidy for the patch.
- Ignore SIGINT and SIGTERM so LCP termination packets make it out.
This update also contains a patch for PR pkg/18525 by Lex Wennmacher.
- Client works on Solaris again. It was broken in 3.2.
- Added DEFAULTROUTE=yes|no option to configuration file.
- Server parses address pool file better.
- Server address pool allows ranges of addresses on a line: a.b.c.d-e
- Added "-d" (=debug) and "-P" (=check pool file syntax) options to
pppoe-server.
- Client now ignores PADT's if they are from the wrong source MAC address
or to the wrong destination MAC address.
- Minor fixes to Makefile.in for Turbolinux.
- Improved KERNEL-MODE-PPPOE instructions
- Works with patched pppd 2.4.1
- Many improvements to server: Added "-u" and "-r" options; server can
now respond to request on multiple Ethernet interfaces.
- SECURITY BUG FIX: Server now ignores PADT's if they are from the wrong
source MAC address. You are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to upgrade to 3.1
if you use pppoe-server in production.
- Many small improvements to server. Server now only makes one
discovery socket, systemwide, with addition of "-n" option to pppoe.
- Fixes for compilation problems on BSD, Solaris and some Linux platforms.
- Added "-p" option to pppoe-server to allow you to specify a pool of
IP addresses to assign to clients.
- Added GUI system (tkpppoe). This work was funded by Iospan
Wireless, Inc. The GUI includes a Set-UID wrapper (pppoe-wrapper)
which allows ordinary users to control a link (if so authorized.)
I believe the wrapper script is secure, but please audit the
source code (gui/wrapper.c) if you have any concerns.
- Changes to scripts and pppoe.conf. DNS setup is now dynamic (happens
each time adsl-connect runs.)
- Made relay.c check packet lengths rigorously; made it throw out Ethernet
frame padding on session packets as well as discovery packets.
- Added init scripts for TurboLinux, courtesy of Yasuhiro Sumi.
- Made relay.c check packet lengths rigorously; made it throw out Ethernet
frame padding on discovery packets.
- Completely restructured source file tree.
- Much internal restructuring to eliminate a bunch of global variables.
- adsl-connect now executes /etc/ppp/adsl-lost whenever connection is dropped
or cannot be established.
- Split pppoe.c into pppoe.c and discovery.c.
- Added relay agent (pppoe-relay). Development of the relay agent was
funded by IBM Corporation.
- Made adsl-connect script use the "-U" (host-unique) option to better support
multiple PPPoE links.
- Added support for kernel-mode PPPoE (EXPERIMENTAL, UNSUPPORTED!)
- Added "-o" option to PPPoE server; encoded server PID in pppoe-server
cookie.
Furthermore a startup script for NetBSD 1.5 and newer was added.
