Most function and variable definitions are now preceded by its extern definition, for error checking. Retyped a number of functions, usually to return void. Fixed a number of printf format errors. API changes (in ldap/include): Added avl_dup_ok, avl_prefixapply, removed ber_fatten (probably typo for ber_flatten), retyped ldap_sort_strcasecmp, grew lutil.h. A number of `extern' declarations are left (some added by protoize), to be cleaned away later. Mostly strdup(), strcasecmp(), mktemp(), optind, optarg, errno. |

This is a DUA interface, using LDAP, that conforms to the latest (not yet) Internet Draft for the Whois++ Architecture. It does NOT support the indexing service also proposed under Whois++. It is a gateway to X.500 (similar to the finger and gopher gateways) which allows the user to access the directory via a mechanism that they are comfortable with and/or have access to. The real Directory Service (and the only practical large scale distributed directory service) is provided by the underlying X.500 service. This implementation is not an endorsement of Whois++ but I recognise that there are users whose only interface to a directory service is via a whois client. It therefore attempts to service these users, much like the other two gateways. Comments on the Whois++ specification should be sent to the IETF Whois and Network Information Lookup Service (WNILS) Working Group. The e-mail address of the group is ietf-wnils@ucdavis.edu, to be added to the mailing list send a request to ietf-wnils-request@ucdavis.edu. Comments about this program should be directed to the discussion list ldap-whois++@itd.adelaide.edu.au, (send a message to ldap-whois++-request@itd.adelaide.edu.au to join). I will post bug fix announcements to this list. Mark Prior 6 May 93
