Modified files:
usr.sbin/timed/timed readmsg.c
usr.sbin/timed/timedc cmds.c
Log:
The timed protocol is not implemented in a compatible way by all vendors;
the size of the tsp_name field is OS-dependent. 4.3BSD used a 32-byte
field, FreeBSD uses MAXHOSTNAMELEN and RedHat apparently uses a 64-byte
field. As a result, sanity checking code added a few months ago to detect
short packets will fail when interoperating with one of these other vendors.
Change the short packet detection code to expect a minimum packet size
corresponding to the 4.3BSD implementation, which should be a safe minimum
size.
