Description Ian 2003-05-25 19:30:55 UTC

OpenAFS is now at version 1.2.9

Comment 1 Bernhard Schmidt 2003-06-29 08:51:14 UTC

Version bump to OpenAFS 1.2.9

This also fixes the bug mentioned in

PACKAGE : openafs
SUMMARY : cryptographic weakness in Kerberos v4
DATE : 2003-03-30 15:50 UTC
EXPLOIT : remote
VERSIONS AFFECTED : <1.3.2-r1
FIXED VERSION : >=1.3.2-r1
CVE : CAN-2003-0139

Since 1.3.2-r1 is not compilable for most users I'd suggest masking 1.3.2-r1 again and use 1.2.9 as current unmasked version.

This would fix most openafs-related bugs in Gentoo.

Thanks, works great.

I've made some changes to the init-script, works fine here but definitely needs more testing.

Changes:
 - Instead of dying instantly when no ext2 cache partition is available it only exits when the option "-memcache" is also omitted.

 - Recreates mountpoint /afs if it does not exist (e.g. after re-emerging)

 - Reorder in init-script, first start server then check for cache partition.

 - Made error messages easier to understand ("Error loading AFS module" instead of "Error loading AFS client" when loading of the kernel module fails)

There is still one carveat that failures starting client would flag the whole AFS thing (including server and kernel module) as not-started in the init-system, but I do not have an idea how to fix this besides using three scripts (module, server, client (cache manager)).
