Add support for "AFS Client Admins" windows authortization group
====================
NTMakefile changes for Admin Group
* Fix aklog.exe to not add the AFS ID to the username
* PTS registration of new users to foreign cells has been added to
afscreds.exe
* The cm_Daemon thread is used to perform checks for
down servers, up servers, volumes, callback expirations,
lock maintenance and token expiration. Due to a gaff in
larger integer division the thread never performed any
work. Instead the current time computation would always
be less then the trigger times. This had an adverse affect
on the client's ability to maintain communication with servers,
keep volumes up to date, and flush user tokens and acls
when they have expired. This was broken when the 1.3 branch
was modified to support VC7 which no longer included
largeint.lib
* An initialization problem with the Freelance code was
detected while fixing the callbackRequest. The cm_rootSCachep
object is obtained during afsd_InitDaemons() but the callback
information is incomplete. The callback information will not
be obtained until cm_MergeStatus is called from within
cm_GetCallback. Unfortunately, cm_SyncOp did not properly
test for the conditions under which the callback information
must be obtained.
* Reports have been filed indicating that callbacks were
being lost. An examination of the code indicated that the
cm_server_t objects were not being properly reference
counted by the cm_scache_t and cm_callbackRequest_t objects.
In particular, the cm_server_t objects may have been freed
from beneath the cm_conn_t objects.
All of the reference counting is now done via the functions:
cm_GetServer
cm_GetServerNoLock
cm_PutServer
cm_PutServerNoLock
this improves the ability to track the referrals.
Each cm_BeginCallbackGranting Call now allocates a reference
to the cm_server_t. The cm_EndCallbackGrantingCall either
frees the reference or transfers it to the cm_scache_t
cbServerp field. These are then appropriately tracked
through the cm_Analyze call.
* Ensure that the dnlc hash table is the same size as the
dir name hash table (as per original author's note).
Increase the dnlc CM_AFSNCNAMESIZE to a multiple of 8
for compatibility with 64-bit systems.
* fix smb_ApplyV3DirListPatches to properly apply the hidden
attribute to dotfiles when the infoLevel < 0x101 and
cm_SyncOp has failed.
* Fix the Freelance registry initialization code. There
was a possibility that some systems could end up with
garbage in the registry during a clean install.
Restore the installation of afslogon.dll as a winlogon event handler.
Microsoft identified the problem as being a newly added restriction
on the behavior of DllMain entry points. Network operations such
as bind() may no longer be called. The ICF blocks them but does not
cause an error to be returned.
Disable the installation of the WinLogon Event Handlers to avoid
problems with XP SP2 Final Release booting and profiles being released
on logoff.
Update version to 1.3.7000
Add VS8 entries to the build system
document new freelance functionality and update install notes
