Add tool_current_dhandle_only() as a small wrapper for callers that only need
the current NetWare directory handle.
Replace the local creator_current_dhandle() and tests_current_dhandle()
implementations in CREATOR and NWTESTS with the shared helper. This removes
duplicate requester-current-directory code without changing behavior.
Move the common NCP22 DOS name buffer helper into tools.c and declare it in
net.h.
Replace the local copy/uppercase implementations in CREATOR, FLAG, FLAGDIR,
NDIR and NWTESTS with tool_copy_ncp22_name(). The helper keeps the existing
behavior: uppercase conversion, path separator rejection and the 1..12 byte
DOS name length limit.
NCOPY is intentionally left untouched while its NCP copy path remains under
investigation.
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 the CREATOR utility and wire it into the DOS tools build and NET
command dispatch.
Extend the client-side NCP helpers with the calls needed by the new and
updated tools, including DOS namespace information and effective-rights
queries. Also update MAP handling for automatic drive mappings used by
the login script.
This commit contains the tool/source support only. The DOS baseline test
suite is kept separate and will be added in a follow-up commit.
