lsof-4.64

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

Released today. 10.20 enabled again (for the last time according to the author)

This relase has some specific HP-UX issues:

* The April 23, 2002 revision (4.63): improves documentation and
handling of HP-UX 11 kernel patch examination with q4 and pxdb;
fixes a Solaris file system matching bug; corrects bugs in device
number, file size, file offset, and raw device number field
output generation; makes compilation under OpenBSD 3.1 possible,
but does not constitute a claim that lsof works there; adds an
automated test suite; fixes bugs in lock reporting for HP-UX
10.30 and 11.00, Digital UNIX 4.0, OpenUnix 8, Tru64 UNIX 5.[01],
and UnixWare 7.1.1; enables reporting of NFS link counts for
HP-UX 10.30 and 11.0; corrects UNIX domain socket name reporting
for Darwin, FreeBSD 4.5 and above, NetBSD 1.4.1 and above, and
OpenBSD 3.0 and above; fixes handling of AIX combined device
numbers in 64 bit architectures; updates AIX 4.3.3 rnode handling;
enables DTYPE_PIPE reporting for NetBSD; updates shell script
that fetches missing header files from the Darwin CVS repository;
adds defense against the standard I/O descriptor attack.

* The June 26, 2002 revision (4.64): corrects pre-processor command
errors in the FreeBSD sources; re-enables compilation on the
unsupported lsof for HP-UX < 11; re-arranges test suite information
in the FAQ; adds a Q&A to the FAQ about HASSECURITY; removes
ANSI-C language requirements from test suite programs; fixes
long-standing bug in HP-UX lock reporting; validates test suite
on unsupported HP-UX 10.20 with cc and gcc; changes BSDI, Darwin,
FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD nlist() use to kvm_nlist(); validates
test suite on OpenStep 4.2; adds exclusion prefix ('^') support
to the -d FD list; adjusts for FreeBSD 4.6 and 5.0-CURRENT;
fixes a FreeBSD /etc/make.conf CFLAGS extraction bug; adds nullfs
support for FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD; modifies all readmnt()
functions to ignore mounted-on directory names that don't begin
with '/'; runs on NetBSD 1.6A and OpenBSD 3.1; updates Solaris
9 support to FCS version; upgrades to OpenUNIX 8.0.1; adds
Solaris fd file system support.

Have fun!

There are obviously not that much point to earn here :)

Thanks, Merijn!

Great news!

Steven Sim Kok Leong has given me space to put software that is required/requested by many of you: https://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/

GNU gcc-3.1.1 + binutils 2.12 for several HP-UX flavours
GNU tar, cpio and make
bzip2 and gzip
One Oracle prepared perl for now

I'm open for new suggestions.

Steven, come and collect your well deserved points.

Hi Merijn,

No problem! The pleasure is mine too.

I believe your ports will be very useful with all the additional modules like DBI etc.

In any case, my fingers were itching to configure some stuff on the webserver, and you gave me just the reason to ease that itch! :-)

... and as long as you don't dump the dd disk image of your disks into the server of course... ;-) *hiaks*

P.S. Your index page looks cool! And so is your pic.
