Replace local case-insensitive argument comparison helpers in MAP, SLIST,
WHOAMI and NWTESTS with the shared tool_strsame() helper.
This removes small duplicate helpers without changing command parsing behavior.
Trustee-specific wrappers and the experimental NCOPY code are intentionally
left untouched.
Add GPL-2-or-later license headers to the DOS utility source files and
document the purpose and local dependencies of each C, header and assembler
file.
Preserve the original Martin Stover copyright attribution for the historic
MARS-NWE utility sources, including files that did not previously carry an
explicit header but are part of the original tool set. Add Mario Fetka as the
2026 copyright holder for the current maintenance work, and use Mario-only
headers for files without original Martin Stover ownership.
Also add a root-level COPYING file containing the GPL-2 license text.
Update the DOS utilities and test suite with the current Novell comparison
state.
Validated/updated tool behavior:
- improve CREATOR output by showing Novell-style attribute and rights masks
- extend FLAGDIR handling with old NCP22 directory attribute read/write
fallback paths
- expand NDIR Novell-style formatting, filtering, /SUB handling, date output,
DI/RI attribute display and richer metadata collection
- adjust REVOKE output/grammar, recursive /SUBDIRECTORIES behavior and trustee
update/delete paths to better match Novell tools
- adjust SLIST header/output behavior for logged-in and logged-out cases
- update README status to reflect the currently green/tested tools
Test-suite changes:
- add/refresh Novell comparison tests for CREATOR, NDIR, REVOKE and SLIST
- update NCOPY tests and collection scripts for the current investigation state
- refresh per-tool README files and top-level test documentation
- keep MAP documented as still separately open
NCOPY:
- add the current NCOPY implementation and experimental NCP74/server-side-copy
scaffolding
- build ncopy.c so it stays compile-tested
- keep NCOPY disabled in the NET multicall dispatch for now because the
server-side-copy/open-handle path is still unsafe and needs further analysis
Build:
- include ncopy.c in the DOS utility build
- drop the temporary MARS_DOSUTILS_VERSION define wiring from CMake
Add maintainer-only support used by the automated DOS compatibility
tests.
This introduces the MAINTAINER_BUILD option for the DOS tools. In
maintainer builds, LOGIN accepts the hidden /PWD: and /PASSWORD:
arguments for automated test relogin, and the DLYSTRT helper is built to
delay-start DOS batch files after the invoking batch has returned to the
prompt.
Add the WHOAMI utility and wire it into the NET command dispatch. Also
adjust SLIST and RIGHTS output to match Novell behavior more closely,
including server-not-found handling, path formatting, Supervisor rights,
missing-path errors and usage text.
Extend the test scripts to compare NPUBLIC Novell baselines against the
PUBLIC implementations. LOGIN/LOGOUT can now run automatically via
DLYSTRT and the maintainer LOGIN password option. RIGHTS gains an
additional NOPASSUSER effective-rights matrix that covers single rights,
mixed rights, Supervisor rights, ALL/N and file trustee cases.
Normal builds remain free of maintainer-only helpers and hidden password
handling.
- add a shared DOS pager helper for long tool output
- page FLAG wildcard output with the Novell continue prompt
- fix FLAGDIR current-directory handling for "." and volume root
- add FLAGDIR wildcard directory listing support
- page FLAGDIR wildcard output like Novell FLAGDIR
- keep FLAGDIR display formatting aligned with Novell output
- make SLIST /CONTINUE enable continuous output
- keep SLIST bindery scanning compatible with ncpfs behavior
- preserve SLIST NET_ADDRESS display and default server marking
