• Sendmail 8.9.1 POP Relay Authentication (1998-07-14)
  This page contains information and code for a system that will temporarially allow mail relaying for users that have done a successful POP3 authentication on a machine. This is handy for ISPs that have customers dialing in from elsewhere. The relay daemon basically just monitors a logfile, so you can tweak a perl function to allow relaying based on almost anything that is logged.

• GNU Binutils 2.7 - mips (1996-11-17)   gnu-binutils-2.7-2
  NetBSD/pmax dynamic linking.
  This shar archive contains binutils/bfd/elf32-mips.c, which replaces that file in the current binutils. It keep binutils-2.7 ld under NetBSD/pmax from dumping core when when linking in _ctors.o from libgcc.a.
  This patch was generated by Jonathan Stone (jonathan@DSG.Stanford.EDU).

• NetBSD - getty (1996-10-28)   netbsd-1.2-getty-1
  Uugetty for NetBSD.
  This patch to getty lets you use a serial line for both incoming and outgoing calls. With it, getty will create and defer to HDB/Taylor UUCP lock files (/var/spool/lock/LCK..ttynn). It also chowns the tty and the lock files to uucp, rather than root. The standard UUCP programs that come with NetBSD (such as cu) and many other third-party programs honour his locking protocol.
  This file is a shar archive that includes patches to files in src/libexec/getty and a new file, lock.c, to be added to that directory.
  This patch was written by Curt Samspon (curt@portal.ca).

• GNU Binutils 2.7 - gas and i386 (1996-10-21)   gnu-binutils-2.7-1
  Gas assembly for NetBSD (all ports) and NetBSD/i386.
  This patch fixes two problems in gas (the assembler) in GNU binutils 2.7. The first is that it doesn't generate correct type information in the `other' field for NetBSD a.out format; the second is that the i386 version of gas was generating some incorrect offsets.
  These patches were generated by Ian Lance Taylor (ian@cygnus.com) based on bug reports from Curt Sampson (curt@portal.ca). It should appear in the release 2.8 of GNU binutils.

• NetBSD Kernel - ep driver (1996-10-15)   netbsd-1.2-kern-ep-1
  Etherlink III (ep) network card driver for NetBSD 1.2.
  This fixes a bug in the ep driver that causes transmits to wedge the card on 3c59x and 3c90x cards. The card will wedge if a packet greater than 1122 bytes needs to be transmitted, and there is not enough space for it in the RAM buffer on the card itself.
  This patch was written by Curt Samspon (curt@portal.ca). A similar patch has been committed to NetBSD-current, and that one will likely appear in the first patch set for NetBSD 1.2.
