Imported vmailmgr-0.96.9

1998-03-19  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* vmailmgrd.pod: Documented the -d and -D options for logging.

	* daemon/log.cc (finish): It is not correct to un-freeze a string
	stream while a character pointer to its contents is still in use.
	Moved the "out.freeze(0)" call to after the contents were used.

1998-03-15  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@hal.qcc.sk.ca>

	* lib/config.h: Added explanations of the various definitions, and
	added the definitions DO_SHADOW and MAILDIR_ARG_STR.

	* lib/pwentry_getpw.cc: #include the config.h file, which may
	define DO_SHADOW.

	* commands/checkvpw.cc (find_maildir): Use the configuration macro
	MAILDIR_ARG_STR instead of the hard coded string "maildir".

1998-03-14  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* commands/checkvpw.cc (getdata): Wrote some small modifications
	here to make it more correct and slightly more efficient.

1998-03-12  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@hal.qcc.sk.ca>

	* commands/checkvpw.cc (authenticate): Coded the server call to
	use the convenience constructor.

	* commands/vdeliver.cc (main): Coded the server call to use the
	convenience constructor.

	* lib/server.cc (server_call): Added several convenience
	constructors, taking 0-4 string arguments.

1998-03-12  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* Released version 0.69pre9

	* commands/vadduser.cc (setup): Initialize the random number
	generator.

	* commands/vpasswd.cc (main): Initialize the random number
	generator before changing passwords.  This helps to prevent
	identical "salt"s in the passwords.

	* commands/vadduser.cc (setup): Added a check for the
	'.qmail-default' file, and print a short message explaining how to
	create it if it does not exist.

1998-03-11  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* commands/vdeliver.cc (exit_msg): Forgot to write a trailing
	newline in the exit messages.  Fixed.

1998-03-10  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* commands/vdeluser.cc (main): Changed the response messages to
	look more like the other command programs.

	* lib/Makefile: Added rules to build the common library as a
	shared object, libvmailmgr.so.$(libversion), to which all the
	other programs link.

	* version: Added new version variables: libversion and soversion,
	used for building versioned shared objects.

	* lib/passwdfn.cc (getpasswd): Fixed the problem that would cause
	an error message about an empty password to be printed if the
	passwords were different.

	* commands/vpasswd.cc (main): Removed the server call in this
	program and made it use vuser_chpass instead.

	* lib/vuser_chpass.cc (vuser_chpass): Wrote this pair of routines
	which change the password of a user in a virtual password table.

	* daemon/chpass.cc (CMD(chpass)): Modified to use vuser_chpass.

1998-03-09  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* daemon/chpass.cc (CMD(chpass)): Converted to use autodelete.

	* daemon/adduser.cc (CMD(adduser)): Converted to use autodelete.

1998-03-08  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@hal.qcc.sk.ca>

	* Released version 0.69pre8

	* lib/vuser_lookup.cc (vuser_lookup): Converted to use autodelete.

	* lib/vuser_delalias.cc (vuser_delalias): Converted to use autodelete.

	* lib/vuser_deluser.cc (vuser_deluser): Converted to use autodelete.

	* lib/pwentry_delpw.cc (delpw): Fixed the same problem as in putpw.
	(delpw): Fixed the typo in creating the output file (output file
	name is in variable 'copyfile', not 'file').

	* lib/pwentry_putpw.cc (putpw): istream.getline should be used
	instead of istream.get which doesn't discard the newline.

	* lib/vuser_add.cc (bad_chars): Removed the check for the
	directory separator in this routine, as '/' is a valid character
	in both password fields and e-mail addresses.

1998-03-04  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* vaddalias.pod: Updated the document to reflect the below change.

	* commands/vaddalias.cc (main): Modified the user lookup code to
	skip looking up a local user if the address contains a hostname
	(preceeded by an at sign (@)).

	* lib/mystring.cc (find): Modified this routine to add an "offset"
	parameter at which to start the search.

1998-02-26  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* released version 0.69pre7

	* commands/checkvpw.cc (main): If the environment variable
	TCPLOCALHOST is not set, get the host name from gethostname(3).

	* daemon/main.cc (abortreq): Now generates a temporary response
	(with code=bad) and calls finishreq.
	(finishreq): Wrote this routine which logs a response and closes
	the connection.
	(main): Print out a message regarding the status of logging.
	(parse_options): Added code to parse the command line options.

	* daemon/log.cc (logresponse): Added this routine that optionally
	logs both the command and the response if either the response
	indicates an error or the program is logging all responses.
	Also set up all the other routines to log to a string which is
	only optionally logged given the above conditions.

1998-02-22  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* daemon/log.cc: Wrote various 'logcommand' routines into this file.

1998-02-21  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* daemon/main.cc (handle_connection): Removed command logging from
	this central location and distributed it to all the command
	modules, so that sensitive information (passwords) can be sensibly
	omitted.

	* commands/checkvpw.cc (strcasestr): Fixed bug that failed to
	match 'needle' in the 'haystack' if the occurrence of 'needle' was
	followed by non-nul characters.

	* commands/vdeliver.cc (main): Now reports error messages to
	stdout, so that bounce messages will contain some description of
	what goes wrong.

	* commands/checkvpw.cc (main): Fixed bug in setting maildir for
	virtual users: argument maildirarg+1 was being set, but maildirarg
	is already incremented.

1998-02-19  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* lib/qmail.cc (find_virtual): Converted to fstream I/O.

	* lib/pwentry_putpw.cc (putpw): Converted to fstream I/O.

1998-02-18  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* After much thought and time spent developing the fdio classes, I
	discovered that I was just re-developing the standard C++ iostream
	classes.  So, all further I/O will be based on iostreams, and all
	use of the fdio classes will be converted.

	* vmailmgr.pod: Pulled this manual page, describing the general
	overview of the vmailmgr package, from the vmailmgr.texi
	file.  There is now no content in the vmailmgr.texi file, and it
	is removed from the package.

	(CMD(lookup)): Fixed a logic flaw that reported virtual users with
	an erroneously empty destination field as valid users.

	* daemon/check.cc (CMD(check)): Removed the code to check the
	arguments.

	* daemon/daemon.h (class command): The array of arguments is now

	* daemon/dispatch.cc (dispatch_cmd): Added code to handle virtual
	domain parsing and argument counting.

	* daemon/command.cc (replace_first_two): Wrote this routine to
	help consolidate the virtual-domain parsing routines into

	* commands/vadduser.cc: Adapted this program to use the fdio library.

	* commands/vaddalias.cc (main): Adapted this program to use the
	fdio library, and fixed the logic problem that prevented any alias
	from being added.

	* lib/pwentry_delpw.cc (delpw): Added this routine to delete a
	password entry.

	* lib/pwentry.h: turned the addpw/setpw macros into inline routines.

	('/') to the list of bad characters.

	* daemon/dispatch.cc (struct dispatch ): Started to add support
	for a unified parameter decoder.

	* lib/qmail.cc: Removed the 'dot_qmail_name' and 'valid_name'
	routines, which are no longer necessary.

1998-02-12  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* lib/fdio_base.cc (fdstream): Remove the trigger character
	argument to the constructors, set the trigger to '\n' if the file
	descriptor is a tty.

1998-02-11  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* lib/fdio.h (class fdistream): Started writing the input class.

	* daemon/main.cc (logcommand): Added a special case to blank out
	the last argument (the password) for "check" commands.

	* daemon/lookup.cc (lookup_maildir): Converted to use autodelete.

	* daemon/main.cc (main): Added a handler for SIGHUP (currently
	does nothing, will eventually signal to clear all cached tables).

1998-02-10  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* commands/checkvpw.cc (lookup_maildir): Wrote this routine to
	explicitly lookup the maildir of a user.
	(authenticate): Removed the code to parse the maildir field out of
	the response message from "check".
	(main): Recoded to find the maildir argument, use it as the
	default maildir, and only replace that argument in the case of
	authenticating a virtual user.

	* daemon/lookup.cc (CMD): The main command now takes similar
	arguments to all the other commands which handle virtual domains,
	and returns either the "destination" field for a virtual user or
	an empty string for a real user.

	* daemon/check.cc (check): Removed the code to lookup the
	maildir.  The check command no longer reports maildir
	information.  This happens to make this routine a great deal
	simpler.
	(check): Use autodelete<T> for basepw and virtpw.
	(CMD): Recoded the main command routine to check is_local before
	find_virtual.

	* lib/autodelete.h (class autodelete ): Wrote this (template)
	class to automatically delete a pointer when it is goes out of
	scope.

	* lib/config.h: Added new define, DEFAULT_MAILDIR, that represents
	the default maildir to use if none is given.

	fdostream.

	* lib/fdio_base.cc: Wrote this file, containing the base I/O class
	fdstream.

1998-02-07  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* lib/pwentry_getpw.cc (getpw_byname): Fixed shadow password
	support (password field is sp_pwdp, not spw_pwdp).

	* lib/response_message.cc (codestr): Wrote this function that
	returns a string version of the response code.

	* daemon/main.cc (handle_connection): Modified to print out more
	useful information for logging: request contents and responses.

	* commands/vadduser.cc (add_user,add_alias): Check to make sure
	the user or alias does not exist before adding it.

	* commands/vaddalias.cc (main): Rewrote this program to use the
	vuser_* routines.

	* daemon/lookup.cc (lookup_maildir): Rewrote this function to use
	vuser_lookup.

	* commands/vadduser.cc (add_user): Completed rewriting this
	program to use the vuser_* routines.

	* lib/pwentry_getpw.cc (getpw_byname): Added support for shadow
	passwords (untested).

	* lib/pwentry_setpw.cc (putpw): Fixed bug in string comparison:
	when the name to add is longer than the name in the password file,
	the extra characters are not compared.

	* lib/vuser_add.cc (vuser_addalias): Wrote this routine, adds an
	alias to a password file.
	(vuser_add): Modified this routine to create a maildir only if the
	maildir parameter is not empty.  Also, check if the name and
	password contain invalid characters (currently only checks for ':'
	and whitespace).

	* commands/testclient.cc (main): Rewrote to use the new
	response::message routine.

	* lib/response_message.cc (message): Wrote this routine which
	returns the msg field with a prefix tag corresponding to the code
	field.

	* lib/response.h (struct response): Added operator!, returns true
	if the response is not ok.

	* lib/vuser_add.cc (vuser_add): Added new vuser_add routine which
	builds the vpwentry and passes it to the other vuser_add routine.

1998-01-29  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* lib/vuser_add.cc (vuser_add): Modified this routine to call
	addpw instead of setpw.

	* lib/pwentry.h: Renamed setpw to putpw and made two new macros,
	setpw and addpw, that call it.

	* lib/pwentry_setpw.cc (putpw): Added support to setpw to only add
	(no overwrite) new entries, and renamed it to putpw.

1998-01-28  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* lib/vuser_add.cc (vuser_add): Moved part of adduser from
	daemon/adduser.cc here, with the name vuser_add.

	class.

	* commands/testclient.cc (main): Rewrote to use the new response
	class.

	* commands/checkvpw.cc (authenticate): Rewrote to use new response
	class.

	* lib/server.h: Removed the class server_response, which was
	functionally identical to class response.

	this routine into a separate file.

	* lib/pwentry_setpw.cc (setpw): Moved the implementation of this

	* lib/response_write.cc (write): Moved the implementation of
	response::write into this file.

	* lib/response.h (struct response ): Moved this class from
	daemon/daemon.h into this file, as I plan to use it in some
	non-daemon applications.

	* daemon/uidgid.h (class saved_uidgid): Moved the
	push_uidgid/pop_uidgid behavior into this class, which allows me
	to let C++ automatically "pop" the uid/gid state when a routine
	exits.

1998-01-27  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* commands/vadduser.cc: Started modifying this program to call the
	server.

	* daemon/adduser.cc (adduser): Finished implementing this function.

	* daemon/lookup.cc (lookup_maildir): Modified the lookup logic
	such that an empty destination field is invalid.

	* daemon/pwentry.cc (putpw): Fixed to add a newline at the end of
	the entry.
	(setpw): Fixed logic error with the final return code.

	* daemon/pwcrypt.cc (encrypt): Wrote this routine which generates
	a random salt and encrypts the password using this new random
	salt.

	* daemon/chpass.cc (chpass): Simplify matters by resetting the
	password in the vpw structure and calling setpw instead of
	setpw_pass.

	* daemon/pwentry.cc: Moved the crypt_cmp routine into its own
	file, pwcrypt.cc.

1998-01-26  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* daemon/dispatch.cc (CMD(statall)): Wrote this routine to return
	stats on all the routines in the dispatch table.

	* daemon/adduser.cc (adduser): Started to write this module which
	adds a virtual account to a domain.

	and pwentry functions.

	* daemon/check.cc (check): modified to use the new userlookup.

	* daemon/lookup.cc (userlookup): modified to get the virtual
	password table entry if it exists, using the new pwentry
	functions.
	(lookup_maildir): modified to use the new pwentry functions.

	* daemon/pwentry.cc (getpw_byname/2): Written, looks up a global
	password entry.
	(getpw_byname/3): Written, looks up a virtual password entry.
	Note that the return value from all the 'getpw*' functions must be
	deleted.
	(setpw): Written, sets an entry in a virtual password file.
	(setpw_pass): Written, sets the password in a virtual password
	file.

	* daemon/pwentry.h (struct pwentry, vpwentry): Wrote this header
	to encapsulate global and virtual password file lookups.

	* lib/passwdfn.cc: Commented out all the password file
	manipulation functions.

	* lib/passwdfn.h: Commented out all the password file manipulation
	functions.

1998-01-25  Bruce Guenter  <bguenter@mikhail.qcc.sk.ca>

	* commands/vdeliver.cc: Remove the duplicate definitions of
	functions provided in the "stat_fns" header file.

	* Changed the package's name to 'vmailmgr' (Virtual MAIL
	ManaGeR).  It is quite readily apparent that this package has
	evolved into something much larger than just a password checking
	program.
