hi there,

another pre-patch is available. what's new:

        1) this one should exit a little more gracefully when the
           client cuts you off. i.e., instead of dying on SIGPIPE, i
           just ignore that and let afpd clean things up. the syslog
           is also a little more verbose so that i know that that's
           what happened.

        2) new afpd.conf option: -tickleval <sec>. you can use that to
            change the tickle interval (default: 30s). NOTE: if you do
            so, make sure to do something similar on the client-side as
            well or you'll end up disconnecting yourself.

        3) doing a shutdown should really take 5 minutes now with
           afp/tcp. in the past, it was possible to over-write the
           shutdown timer with the tickle timer, resulting in a
           shutdown 30 seconds afterwards.

as always, the patch is at
   <ftp://ftp.u.washington.edu/public/asun/pre-asun2.1.1-2.tar.gz>
