RevisionDateAuthorComments
 1.25  13-Jul-2009  roy Rename internal getline() function to get_line() so it does
conflict with the soon to be added getline(3) libc function.
 1.24  18-Jan-2009  lukem fix -Wsign-compare issues
 1.23  20-Jan-2006  christos Instead of dealing with port@host in many places, do it where it is needed.
It reduces code and complexity and at the same time allows as to use symbolic
ports instead of just numeric everywhere.
 1.22  04-Jan-2006  garbled Address PR bin/12112
Lpd has the ability to start on a port other than "printer" but has no
way to connect to a remote lpd on that port. This change adds the
ability to specify port@host in the rm element of printcap(5). Tested to
work with both a standard lpd setup and one running on special ports.
 1.21  28-Nov-2005  christos - WARNS = 4
- factor out commonly used code.
- constify
- use warn/warnx instead of printf
 1.20  30-Oct-2004  dsl Add (unsigned char) cast to ctype functions
Some of this code could usefully be converted to use strtoul() and/or
some small helper functions.
 1.19  07-Aug-2003  agc Move UCB-licensed code from 4-clause to 3-clause licence.

Patches provided by Joel Baker in PR 22366, verified by myself.
 1.18  14-Jul-2002  wiz Unifdef __STDC__. Remove __P(). ANSIfy.
 1.17  25-Jun-2001  mrg use DEFLP instead of "lp".
 1.16  16-Apr-2000  mrg make scandir(3)'s 3rd argument take a function that takes a *const*
struct dirent *, rather than non-const. this makes scandir(3) the
same as the scandir implementations in libiberty and glibc, and the
select function has no need to modify the dirent.
 1.15  07-Dec-1999  mrg - add timeouts to displayq(), rmremote(), sendfile() and response(),
and use these timeout in the lpq, lpd and lprm programs.

these stop hung remote printers that accept tcp connections but do
not process jobs from hanging the whole system and letting the sysadmin
have a clue about what is going on with this rogue printer.

- add a -r flag to lpd to allow `of' filters for remote jobs.

i know there are ways around this, but i just don't care.

- add a -f flag to lpf to add missing carriage returns.

useful when printing UNIX files to an, eg, LaserWriter that wants CR's
as well as LF's in raw text. stair-stepped text is no fun.

- implement child process accounting: we just have a limit on the number
of children we can have (settable by the sysadmin), and we sleep when
this number is reached. this can reduce malicious not-so-malicious
attacks on the print server by a rogue remote client..

- use setproctitle() where appropriate so the sysadmin has a clue about
what each of the lpd's here are doing.

this was useful to help diagnose a problem (that the above child process
accounting change reduces the lossages of) where a rogue client was
attempting "lpq" operations on one stuck queue in rapid succession,
causing the lpd server to be extremely slow, due to the large number
of lpd processes running.


i have been running these changes in production for about a year.
 1.14  26-Sep-1999  mrg delint and other cleanups.

 1.12  05-Oct-1997  mrg merge 4.4 lite2
 1.11  10-Jul-1997  mikel make explicit comparisons to NULL (gcc -Wall)
 1.10  10-Mar-1997  cgd fix one more goofup in the buffer safety changes: snprintf() should be
called with enough space for the trailing NUL, because it (unlike strn*())
always NUL-terminates.
 1.9  08-Mar-1997  cgd fix two bugs pointed out by Paul Sijben <Paul.Sijben@huygens.org>:
(1) incorrect check on length of data being written (fix provided by
Paul Sijben <Paul.Sijben@huygens.org>), and
(2) inadequate buffer (too small) for data being sent to remote meant
that properly-formed messages couldn't be created, so job removal
didn't work properly.
 1.8  09-Dec-1996  mrg remove unsafe calls to strcpy(), strcat(), and sprintf(). some KNF.
 1.7  28-Nov-1995  jtc branches: 1.7.4;

 1.5  03-Oct-1995  hpeyerl branches: 1.5.2;
-- convert sgtty to termios. From: Scott Bartram <scottb@iis.net>

need it from matthew green <mrg@mame.mu.oz.au>
