-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-0732 2012-01-21 21:10:54 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : slapi-nis Product : Fedora 15 Version : 0.36 Release : 1.fc15 URL : http://slapi-nis.fedorahosted.org/ Summary : NIS Server and Schema Compatibility plugins for Directory Server Description : This package provides two plugins for Red Hat and 389 Directory Server. The NIS Server plugin allows the directory server to act as a NIS server for clients, dynamically generating and updating NIS maps according to its configuration and the contents of the DIT, and serving the results to clients using the NIS protocol as if it were an ordinary NIS server. The Schema Compatibility plugin allows the directory server to provide an alternate view of entries stored in part of the DIT, optionally adding, dropping, or renaming attribute values, and optionally retrieving values for attributes from multiple entries in the tree. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update incorporates fixes for memory leaks, performance improvements (particularly when the plugins are used in combination with the directory server's memberof and/or managed-entry plugins), and initial support for server backend transactions. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Tue Jan 24 2012 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.36-1 - take steps to avoid making yp_first/yp_next clients loop indefinitely when a single LDAP entry produces multiple copies of the same NIS key for a given map * Tue Jan 24 2012 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.35-1 - add mmatch/mregmatch[i]/mregsub[i] formatting functions which work like match/regmatch[i]/regsub[i], but which can handle and return lists of zero or more results (part of #783274) * Thu Jan 19 2012 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.34-1 - do entry comparisons ourselves, albeit less throughly, to avoid the worst case in pathological cases (more of #771444) * Tue Jan 17 2012 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.33-1 - get more aggressive about skipping unnecessary calculations (most of the problem in #771444, though not the approach described there) * Mon Jan 16 2012 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.32-1 - add support for directory server transactions (#758830,#766320) * Sat Jan 14 2012 Fedora Release Engineering <[email protected]> - 0.28-2 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_17_Mass_Rebuild * Wed Jan 11 2012 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.31-1 - fix some memory leaks (more of #771493) * Tue Jan 10 2012 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.30-1 - skip recalculations when the attributes which changed don't factor into our calculations (part of #771493) * Wed Jan 4 2012 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.29-1 - add regmatchi/regsubi formatting functions which work like regmatch/regsub, but do matching in a case-insensitive manner - update NIS map defaults to match {CRYPT} userPassword values in a case-insensitive manner so that we also use {crypt} userPassword values - fix inconsistencies in the NIS service stemming from using not-normalized DNs in some places where it should have used normalized DNs * Mon Dec 19 2011 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.28-1 - when configured with --with-ldap=openldap, link with -lldap_r rather than -lldap (rmeggins, #769107) * Tue Dec 6 2011 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.27-1 - when building for 389-ds, use Slapi_RWLocks if they appear to be available (the rest of #730394/#730403) * Fri Aug 12 2011 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.26-1 - when building for 389-ds, use libpthread's read-write locks instead of NSPR's (part of #730394/#730403) * Wed Jul 27 2011 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.25-1 - speed up building compat entries which reference thousands of other entries (more of #692690) - 389-ds-base is apparently exclusive to x86_64 and %{ix86} on EL, so we have to be, too * Fri May 13 2011 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> - 0.24-1 - carry our own yp.x, so that we don't get bitten if libc doesn't include yp client routines - we need rpcgen at build-time now -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #771493 - schema compat is able to consume over 16 gigs of ram and crash the kernel https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771493 [ 2 ] Bug #771444 - Add slapi-nis option to poll for schema compat instead of realtime https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771444 [ 3 ] Bug #758830 - Hang possible in schema compat when calling in a transaction https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=758830 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
