This file is a rough list of known issues with the 1.5.29 release of OpenAFS
|
|
on Windows. This list is not complete. There are probably other issues which
|
|
can be found in the RT database or on the mailing list.
|
|
|
|
For all of these issues please review
|
|

http://www.openafs.org/roadmap.html
|
|
http://www.secure-endpoints.com/openafs-windows-roadmap.html
|
|
|
|
|
|
(1) File/Directory access is not integrated with windows security
|
|
|
|
(3c) Loopback adapter hack:
|
|
(i) prevents use of AFS Gateway
|
|
(ii) requires installation of loopback adapter
|
|
|
|
(9) Convert to a native file system implementation built upon:
|
|
- a file system redirector
|
|
- a file system filter
|
|
- a network provider
|
|
|
|
(12) AFS Integrated Logon:
|
|
(12c) If network is not available must store the username and password
|
|
somewhere until such time as the network starts.
|
|
|
|
(14) No support for Unicode CIFS/SMB data structures. OEM Code Pages prevent
|
|
the use of interoperable file names; force the use of paths no longer
|
|
than 256 characters; force share names to be no longer than 13
|
|
characters; restrict authentication to ASCII only names and passwords;
|
|
etc.
|
|
|
|
(16) Better EventLog handling
|
|
|
|
(17) Named Pipes Support [requires modifications to AFS servers to support]
|
|
|
|
(18) Memory Mapped File support
|
|
|
|
(20) NSIS Installer issues
|
|
(a) integration with KFW install script
|
|
(b) Optional removal of AFS Server volumes
|
|
|
|
(21) The User Interface needs to be re-designed to separate the per-user
|
|
and per-machine settings. All of the new registry items need to
|
|
be added to the UI
|
|
|
|
(22) CIFS Remote Administration Protocol implementation is incomplete.
|
|
Notifications are not made to requestors when the view of a file
|
|
or folder changes due to token acquisition; token expiration; or
|
|
token destruction
|
|
|
|
(23) Remove submount creation as a side effect of AFS drive mapping.
|
|
|
|
The AFS Submount is effectively a server side alias for a path
|
|
located in the AFS space. This alias is exported by the AFS
|
|
SMB/CIFS Server to the Windows SMB/CIFS client as a Share name.
|
|
This makes the AFS Submount a system global setting which should
|
|
only be modified by a member of the "AFS Client Admin" group.
|
|
|
|
afs_creds.exe and afs_config.exe should be modified to no longer
|
|
use submount names when creating drive maps. Drive maps should
|
|
simply use the full AFS path name. Submounts should not be
|
|
created as a side effect of a drive mapping.
|
|
|
|
The creation of submounts should only be possible via afsshare.exe
|
|
or by the new AFS Client Service Administration tool when executed
|
|
by an authorized user.
|
|
|
|
(24) Compatibility with Vista User Account Control (UAC)
|
|
|
|

List of unfunded projects:
|
|
|
|
4. Add support for Named Pipes within the afs filesystem
|
|
(This is not currently a supported feature of AFS; it will require
|
|
changes to the servers as well as the clients.)
|
|
6. Re-write afs_config.exe to be only "per user" functionality which does not require admin
|
|
privileges
|
|
1. default cell and principal for the user
|
|
2. drive mappings but no submounts
|
|
3. visibility of afs creds and setting of afs creds startup options
|
|
7. Create new afs_admin.exe tool to be installed in the administrator folder (or use MMS)
|
|
which contains
|
|
1. afs client service cell name
|
|
2. integrated logon configuration
|
|
3. Gateway configuration
|
|
4. start/stop service
|
|
5. global drive mapping
|
|
6. submount management
|
|
7. file/volume server preferences
|
|
8. afs cells
|
|
9. cache configuration
|
|
10. diagnostics
|
|
11. network configuration
|
|
12. miscellaneous
|
|
13. need to add support for all of the new registry values since 1.2.8
|
|
10. Add support for configurable Icon file representing AFS folders within the Explorer Shell
|
|
11. Documentation Documentation Documentation
|
|
13. Integrate KFW installation into the NSIS and MSI installers
|
|
14. Add support for server side byte range locking.
|
|
15. Unicode enable the SMB/CIFS server. OEM Code Pages:
|
|
1. prevent the use of interoperable file names
|
|
2. force the use of paths no longer than 256 characters
|
|
3. force share names to be no longer than 13 characters
|
|
4. restrict authentication to ASCII only names and passwords
|
|
16. Complete implementation of CIFS Remote Administration Protocol
|
|
17. Add support for SMB/CIFS Digital Signatures
|
|
18. Missing SMB/CIFS functions:
|
|
Find
|
|
FindUnique
|
|
FindClose
|
|
ReadBulk
|
|
WriteBulk
|
|
WriteBulkData
|
|
Tran2::SessionSetup
|
|
Tran2::Directory Search InfoLevel 0x105 / 0x106
|
|
19. StoreBehind mode is not implemented. Or more correctly, all data is
|
|
written directly to the server and is not cached. Writes invalidate
|
|
the local cache entries which are then read back from the server.
|
|
20. Develop an optional Installable File System replacement for the SMB/CIFS
|
|
Server.
|
|
21. Add support for storing Extended Attributes on files
|
|
22. Add support for storing Windows ACLs on files
|
|
23. Remove submount creation as a side effect of drive creation
|
|
24. Finish conversion from string.h to strsafe.h for VS.NET 2005
|
|
25. Implement RX Statistics gathering interfaces and reporting tools
|
|
(necessary to obtain profiling data)
|
|
26. Implement RX Connection Pools in the Cache Manager allowing more than
|
|
four simultaneous requests to a single server to be processed at a time
|
|
for a single user
|
|
27. Support the Vista User Account Control (UAC) interface
