133 =============================
134 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.8
135 Nov 7, 2004
136 =============================
138 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.8 include:
140 o Compile fixes for HP-UX
141 o Fixes for the printer publishing code used when joined to
142 an AD domain.
143 o Incompatibilities with file system quotas.
144 o Several bugs in the spoolss printing code and print system
145 backends.
146 o Inconsistencies in the username map functionality when
147 configured on domain member servers.
148 o Various compile warnings and errors on various platforms.
149 o Fixes for kerberos interoperability with Windows 200x
150 domains when using DES keys.
151 o Fix for CAN-2004-0930 -- smbd remote DoS vulnerability.
152 o Fix for CAN-2004-0882 -- possible buffer overrun in smbd.
155 New features included in the 3.0.8 release are:
157 o New migration functionality added the the net tool
158 for files/directories, printers, and shares.
159 o New experimental idmap backend for assigning uids/gids
160 directly based on the user/group RID when acting as a
161 member of single domain without any trusts.
162 o Additional printer migration support for XP/2003 platforms.
165 Change in Winbindd Behavior
166 ---------------------------
168 All usernames returned by winbindd are now converted to lower
169 case for better consistency. This means any winbind installation
170 relying on the winbind username will need to rename existing
171 directories and/or files based on the username (%u and %U) to lower
172 case (e.g. mv $name `echo $name | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`). This may
173 include mail spool files, home directories, valid user lines in
174 smb.conf, etc....
177 Change in Username Map
178 ----------------------
180 Previous Samba releases would only support reading the fully qualified
181 username (e.g. DOMAIN\user) from the username map when performing a
182 kerberos login from a client. However, when looking up a map
183 entry for a user authenticated by NTLM[SSP], only the login name would be
184 used for matches. This resulted in inconsistent behavior sometimes
185 even on the same server.
187 Samba 3.0.8 obeys the following rules when applying the username
188 map functionality:
190 * When performing local authentication, the username map is
191 applied to the login name before attempting to authenticate
192 the connection.
193 * When relying upon a external domain controller for validating
194 authentication requests, smbd will apply the username map
195 to the fully qualified username (i.e. DOMAIN\user) only
196 after the user has been successfully authenticated.

740 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.6
741 Aug 19, 2004
742 =============================
744 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.6 include:
746 o Schannel failure in winbindd.
747 o Numerous memory leaks.
748 o Incompatibilities between the 'write list' and 'force user'
749 smb.conf options.
750 o Premature optimization of the open_directory() internal
751 function that broke tools such as the ArcServe backup
752 agent, Macromedia HomeSite, and Robocopy.
753 o Corrupt workgroup names in nmbd's browse.dat.
754 o Sharing violation errors commonly seen when opening
755 when serving Microsoft Office documents from a Samba
756 file share.
757 o Browsing problems caused by an apostrophe (') in the
758 computer's description field.
759 o Problems creating special file types from UNIX CIFS
760 clients and enabling 'unix extensions'.
761 o Fix stalls in smbd caused by inaccessible LDAP servers.
762 o Remove various memory leaks.
763 o Fix issues in the password lockout feature.
765 New features introduced in this release include:
767 O Support symlinks created by CIFS clients which
768 can be followed on the server.
769 o Using a cups server other than localhost.
770 o Maintaining the service principal entry in the system
771 keytab for integration with other kerberized services.
772 Please refer to the 'use kerberos keytab' entry in
773 smb.conf(5). When using the heimdal kerberos libraries,
774 you must also specify the following in /etc/krb5.conf:
775 [libdefaults]
776 default_keytab_name = FILE:/etc/krb5.keytab
777 o Support for maintaining individual printer names
778 stored separately from the printer's sharename.
779 o Support for maintaining user password history.
780 o Support for honoring the logon times for user in a
781 Samba domain.
783 --------------------------------------------
784 unix extensions = yes (default) and symlinks
785 --------------------------------------------
787 Beginning with Samba 3.0.6pre1 (formerly known as 3.0.5pre1),
788 clients supporting the UNIX extensions to the CIFS protocol
789 can create symlinks to absolute paths which will be **followed**
790 by the server. This functionality has been requested in order
791 to correctly support certain applications when the user's home
792 directory is mounted using some type of CIFS client (e.g. the
793 cifsvfs in the Linux 2.6 kernel).
795 If this behavior is not acceptable for your production environment
796 you can set 'wide links = no' in the specific share declaration in
797 the server's smb.conf. Be aware that disabling wide link support
798 out of a share in Samba may impact the server's performance due
799 to the fact that smbd will now have to check each path additional
800 times before traversing it.
802 ------------------------
803 Password History Support
804 ------------------------
806 The new password history feature allows smbd to check the new
807 password in password change requests against a list of the user's
808 previous passwords. The number of previous passwords to save can
809 be set using pdbedit (4 in this example):
811 root# pdbedit -P "password history" -C 4
813 When using the ldapsam passdb backend, it is vital to secure the
814 following attributes from access by non-administrative users:
816 * sambaNTPassword
817 * sambaLMPassword
818 * sambaPasswordHistory
820 You should refer to your directory server's documentation on how
821 to implement this restriction.

1069 field with individual bits what to retrieve.
1070 * Implement 'net rpc group rename' -- rename domain groups.
1071 * Implement the 'cups server' option. This makes it possible
1072 to have virtual smbd's connect to different cups daemons.

1076 return.
1077 * Make sure that the clients are given back the IP address to
1078 which they connected in the case of a multi-homed host. Only
1079 affects strings the spoolss printing replies.
1080 * Fix the bad password lockout. This has not worked as pdb_ldap.c
1081 did not ask for the modifyTimestamp attribute, so it could
1082 not find it. Try not to regress by not putting that attrib
1083 in the main list but append it manually for the relevant searches.

1239 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.5
1240 July 20, 2004
1241 =============================
1243 Please note that Samba 3.0.5 is identical to Samba 3.0.4 with
1244 the exception of correcting the two security issues outlined
1245 below.
1247 ######################## SECURITY RELEASE ########################
1249 Summary: Multiple Potential Buffer Overruns in Samba 3.0.x
1250 CVE ID: CAN-2004-0600, CAN-2004-0686
1251 (http://cve.mitre.org/)
1254 This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is the version
1255 that production Samba servers should be running for all current
1256 bug-fixes.
1258 It has been confirmed that versions of Samba 3 prior to v3.0.4
1259 are vulnerable to two potential buffer overruns. The individual
1260 details are given below.
1262 -------------
1263 CAN-2004-0600
1264 -------------
1266 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.2 and later
1268 The internal routine used by the Samba Web Administration
1269 Tool (SWAT v3.0.2 and later) to decode the base64 data
1270 during HTTP basic authentication is subject to a buffer
1271 overrun caused by an invalid base64 character. It is
1272 recommended that all Samba v3.0.2 or later installations
1273 running SWAT either (a) upgrade to v3.0.5, or (b) disable
1274 the swat administration service as a temporary workaround.
1276 This same code is used internally to decode the
1277 sambaMungedDial attribute value when using the ldapsam
1278 passdb backend. While we do not believe that the base64
1279 decoding routines used by the ldapsam passdb backend can
1280 be exploited, sites using an LDAP directory service with
1281 Samba are strongly encouraged to verify that the DIT only
1282 allows write access to sambaSamAccount attributes by a
1283 sufficiently authorized user.
1285 The Samba Team would like to heartily thank Evgeny Demidov
1286 for analyzing and reporting this bug.
1288 -------------
1289 CAN-2004-0686
1290 -------------
1292 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.0 and later
1294 A buffer overrun has been located in the code used to support
1295 the 'mangling method = hash' smb.conf option. Please be aware
1296 that the default setting for this parameter is 'mangling method
1297 = hash2' and therefore not vulnerable.
1299 Affected Samba 3 installations can avoid this possible security
1300 bug by using the default hash2 mangling method. Server
1301 installations requiring the hash mangling method are encouraged
1302 to upgrade to Samba 3.0.5.

1877 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2a
1878 February 13, 2004
1879 ==============================
1881 Samba 3.0.2a is a minor patch release for the 3.0.2 code base
1882 to address, in particular, a problem when using pdbedit to
1883 sanitize (--force-initialized-passwords) Samba's tdbsam
1884 backend. This is the latest stable release of Samba. This
1885 is the version that all production Samba servers should be
1886 running for all current bug-fixes.
1888 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
1890 Beginning with Samba 3.0.2, passwords for accounts with a last
1891 change time (LCT-XXX in smbpasswd, sambaPwdLastSet attribute in
1892 ldapsam, etc...) of zero (0) will be regarded as uninitialized
1893 strings. This will cause authentication to fail for such
1894 accounts. If you have valid passwords that meet this criteria,
1895 you must update the last change time to a non-zero value. If you
1896 do not, then 'pdbedit --force-initialized-passwords' will disable
1897 these accounts and reset the password hashes to a string of X's.
1899 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************

1951 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2
1952 February 9, 2004
1953 =============================
1955 It has been confirmed that previous versions of Samba 3.0 are
1956 susceptible to a password initialization bug that could grant an
1957 attacker unauthorized access to a user account created by the
1958 mksmbpasswd.sh shell script.
1960 The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
1961 has assigned the name CAN-2004-0082 to this issue.
1963 Samba administrators not wishing to upgrade to the current
1964 version should download the 3.0.2 release, build the pdbedit
1965 tool, and run
1967 root# pdbedit-3.0.2 --force-initialized-passwords
1969 This will disable all accounts not possessing a valid password
1970 (e.g. the password field has been set a string of X's).
1972 Samba servers running 3.0.2 are not vulnerable to this bug
1973 regardless of whether or not pdbedit has been used to sanitize
1974 the passdb backend.
1976 Some of the more visible bugs in 3.0.1 addressed in the 3.0.2
1977 release include:
1979 o Joining a Samba domain from Pre-SP2 Windows 2000 clients.
1980 o Logging onto a Samba domain from Windows XP clients.
1981 o Problems with the %U and %u smb.conf variables in relation to
1982 Windows 9x/ME clients.
1983 o Kerberos failures due to an invalid in memory keytab detection
1984 test.
1985 o Updates to the ntlm_auth tool.
1986 o Fixes for various SMB signing errors.
1987 o Better separation of WINS and DNS queries for domain controllers.
1988 o Issues with nss_winbind FreeBSD and Solaris.
1989 o Several crash bugs in smbd and winbindd.
1990 o Output formatting fixes for smbclient for better compatibility
1991 with scripts based on the 2.2 version.

2331 o Refuse to configure if --with-expsam=$BACKEND was used but no
2332 libraries were found for $BACKEND.
2333 o Move sysquotas autoconf tests to a separate file.
2334 o Match W2K w.r.t. writelock and writeclose. Samba4 torture
2335 tester

2361 we have a devmode before copying a string to the devicename.
2362 o Support mapping REALM.COM\user to a local user account (without
2363 running winbindd) for compatibility with 2.2.x release.
2364 o Ensure we don't use mmap() on blacklisted systems.
2365 o fixed a number of bugs and memory leaks in the AIX
2366 winbindd shim
2367 o Call initgroups() in SWAT before becomming the user so that
2368 secondary group permissions can be used when writing to
2369 smb.conf.
2370 o Fix signing problems when reverse connecting back to a
2371 client for printer notify
2372 o Fix signing problems caused by a miss-sequence bug.
2373 o Missing map in errormap for ERROR_MORE_DATA -> ERRDOS, ERRmoredata.
2374 Fixes NEXUS tools running on Win9x clients (bug 64).
2375 o Don't leave the domain field uninitialized in cli_lsa.c if some
2376 SID could not be mapped.
2377 o Fix segfault in mount.cifs helper when there is no options
2378 specified during mount.

2382 o Change in behavior to Not only change the effective uid but also
2383 the real uid when becoming unprivileged.
2384 o Cope with Exchange 5.5 cleartext pop password auth.
2385 o New files for support of initshutdown pipe. Win2k doesn't
2386 respond properly to all requests on the winreg pipe, so we need

2388 o Added more va_copy() checks in configure.in.
2389 o Include fixes for libsmbclient build problems.
2390 o Missing UNIX -> DOS codepage conversion in lanman.c.
2391 o Allow DFMS-S filenames can now have arbitrary case (bug 667).
2392 o Parameterize the listen backlog in smbd and make it larger by
2393 default. A backlog of 5 is way too small these days.

2398 password is given.
2399 o Bind the nmbd sending socket to the 'socket address'.
2400 o Re-order link command for smbd, rpcclient and smbpasswd to ensure
2401 $LDFLAGS occurs before any library specification (bug 661).
2402 o Fix large number of printf() calls for 64-bit size_t.
2403 o Fix AC_CHECK_MEMBER so that SLES8 does correctly finds the
2404 keyblock in the krb5 structs.
2405 o Remove #include <compat.h> in hopes to avoid problems with
2406 apache header files.
2407 o Correct winbindd build problems on HP-UX 11.
2408 o Lowercase netgroups lookups (bug 703).
2409 o Use the actual size of the buffer in strftime instead of a made
2410 up value which just happens to be less than sizeof(fstring).
2411 (bug 713).
2412 o Add ldaplibs to pdbedit link line (bug 651).
2413 o Fix crash bug in smbclient completion (bug 659).
2414 o Fix packet length for browse list reply (bug 771).
2415 o Fix coredump in cli_get_backup_list().
2416 o Make sure that we expand %N (bug 612).

2418 version (bug 514).
2419 o Compile tdbdump by default.
2420 o Apply patches to fix iconv detection for FreeBSD.
2421 o Do not allow the 'guest account' to be added to a passdb backend
2422 using smbpasswd or pdbedit (bug 624).
2423 o Save LDFLAGS during iconv detection (bug 57).
2424 o Run krb5 logins through the username map if the winbindd
2425 lookup fails (bug 698).
2426 o Add const for lp_set_name_resolve_order() to avoid compiler
2427 warnings (bug 471).
2428 o Add support for the %i macro in smb.conf to stand in for the for
2429 the local IP address to which a client connected.
2430 o Allow winbindd to match local accounts to domain SID when
2431 'winbind trusted domains only = yes' (bug 680).
2432 o Remove code in idmap_ldap that searches the user suffix and group
2433 suffix. It's not needed and provides inconsistent functionality
2434 from the tdb backend.
2435 o Patch to handle munged dial string for Windows 2000 TSE.
2436 Thanks to Gaz de France, Direction de la Recherche, Service
2437 Informatique Métier for their supporting this work by Aurelien
2438 Degrémont <adegremont@idealx.com>.
2439 o Correct the "smbldap_open: cannot access when not root error"
2440 messages when looking up group information (bug 281).
2441 o Skip over the winbind separator when looking up a user.
2442 This fixes the bug that prevented local users from
2443 matching an AD user when not running winbindd (bug 698).
2444 o Fix a problem with configure on *BSD systems. Make sure
2445 we add -liconv etc to LDFLAGS.
2446 o Fix core dump bug when "security = server" and the authentication
2447 server goes away.
2448 o Correct crash bug due to an empty munged dial string.
2449 o Show files locked by a specific user (smbstatus -u 'user')
2450 (bug 590).
2451 o Fix bug preventing print jobs from display in the queue
2452 monitor used by Windows NT and later clients (bug 660).
2453 o Fix several reported problems with point-n-print from
2454 Windows 2000/XP clients due to a bug in the EnumPrinterDataEx()
2455 reply (bug 338, 527 & 643).
2456 o Fix a handful of potential memory leaks in the LDAP code used
2457 by ldapsam[_compat] and the LDAP idmap backend.
2458 o Fix for pdbedit error code returns (bug 763).
2459 o Make sure we only enumerate group mapping entries (not
2460 /etc/group) even when doing local aliases.
2461 o Relax check on the pipe name in a dce/rpc bind response to work
2462 around issues with establishing trusts to a Windows 2003 domain.
2463 o Ensure we mangle names ending in '.' in hash2 mangling method.
2464 o Correct parsing issues with munged dial string.
2465 o Fix bugs in quota support for XFS.
2466 o Add a cleaner method for applications that need to provide
2467 name->SID mappings to do this via NSS rather than having to
2468 know the winbindd pipe protocol.
2469 o Adds a variant of the winbindd_getgroups() call called
2470 winbindd_getusersids() that provides direct SID->SIDs listing of
2471 a users supplementary groups. This is enough to allow non-Samba
2472 applications to do ACL checking.
2473 o Make sure we don't append the 'ldap suffix' when writing out the
2474 'ldap XXX suffix' values in SWAT (bug 328).
2475 o Fix renames across file systems.
2476 o Ensure that items in a list of strings containing whitespace are
2477 written out surrounded by single quotes. This means that both
2478 double and single quotes are now used to surround strings in
2479 smb.conf (bug 481).
2480 o Enable SWAT to correctly determine if winbindd is running (bug
2481 398).
2482 o Include WWW-Authenticate field in 401 response for bad auth
2483 attempt (bug 629).
2484 o Add support for NTLM2 (NTLMv2 session security).
2485 o Add support for variable-length session keys.
2486 o More privilege fixes for group enumeration in LDAP (bug 281).

2491 o Disable NTLM2 for RPC pipes.
2492 o Allow the client to specify the NTLM2 flags got NTLMSSP
2493 authentication.
2494 o Change the name of the job passed off to cups from "Test Page"
2495 to "smbprn.00000033 Test Page" so that we can get the smb
2496 jobid back. This allow users to delete jobs with cups printing
2497 backend (partial work on bug 770).
2498 o Fix build of winbindd with static pdb modules.
2499 o Retrieve the correct ACL group bits if the file has an ACL
2500 (bug 802).
2501 o Implement "net rpc group members": Get members of a domain group
2502 in human-readable format.
2503 o Add MacOSX (Darwin) specific charset module code.
2504 o Use samr_dispinfo(level == 1) for enumerating domain users so we
2505 can include the full name in gecos field (bug 587).
2506 o Add support for winbind's NSS library on FeeeBSD 5.1 (bug 797).
2507 o Implement 'net rpc group list [global|local|builtin]*' for a
2508 select listing of the respective user databases.
2509 o Don't automatically set NT status code flag unless client tells
2510 us it can cope.
2511 o Add 'net status [sessions|shares] [parseable]'.
2512 o Don't mistake pre-existing UNIX jobs for smb jobs (remainder of
2513 bug 770).
2514 o Add 'Replicator' and 'RAS Servers' to list of builtin SIDs
2515 (bug 608).
2516 o Fix inverted logic in hosts allow/deny checks caused by
2517 s/strcmp/strequal/ (bug 846).
2518 o Implement correct version SamrRemoveSidForeignDomain() (bug 252).
2519 o Fix typo in 'hash' mangling algorithm.
2520 o Support munged dial for ldapsam (bug 800).
2521 o Fix process_incoming_data() to return the number of bytes handled
2522 this call whether we have a complete PDU or not; fixes bug
2523 with multiple PDU request rpc's broken over SMBwriteX calls
2524 each.
2525 o Fix incorrect smb flags2 for connections to pre-NT servers
2526 (causes smbclient to fail to OS2 for example) (bug 821).

2528 o Correct a problem with "net rpc vampire" mis-parsing the
2529 alias member info reply.
2530 o Ensure the ${libdir} is created by the installclientlib script.
2531 o Fix detection of Windows 2003 client architecture in the smb.conf

2534 user on kerberos auth call (bug 445).
2535 o Fix bugs in hosts allow/deny when using a mismatched
2536 network/netmask pair.
2537 o Protect alloc_sub_basic() from crashing when the source string
2538 is NULL (partial work on bug 687).
2539 o Fix spinlocks on IRIX.
2540 o Corrected some bad destination paths when running "configure
2541 --with-fhs".
2542 o Add packaging files for Fedora Core 1.
2543 o Correct bug in SWAT install script for non-english languages.
2544 o Support character set ISO-8859-1 internally (bug 558).
2545 o Fixed more LDAP access errors when looking up group mappings
2546 (bug 281).

2563 The original 3.0.0 release notes follow
2564 =======================================
2565 WHATS NEW IN Samba 3.0.0
2566 September 24, 2003
2567 =======================================
2570 Major new features:
2571 -------------------
2573 1) Active Directory support. Samba 3.0 is now able to
2574 join a ADS realm as a member server and authenticate
2575 users using LDAP/Kerberos.
2577 2) Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate UNICODE on the wire
2578 and internally there is now a much better infrastructure for
2579 multi-byte and UNICODE character sets.
2581 3) New authentication system. The internal authentication system
2582 has been almost completely rewritten. Most of the changes are
2583 internal, but the new auth system is also very configurable.
2585 4) New default filename mangling system.
2587 5) A new "net" command has been added. It is somewhat similar to
2588 the "net" command in windows. Eventually we plan to replace
2589 numerous other utilities (such as smbpasswd) with subcommands
2590 in "net".
2592 6) Samba now negotiates NT-style status32 codes on the wire. This
2593 improves error handling a lot.
2595 7) Better Windows 2000/XP/2003 printing support including publishing
2596 printer attributes in active directory.
2598 8) New loadable module support for passdb backends and character
2599 sets.
2601 9) New default dual-daemon winbindd support for better performance.
2603 10) Support for migrating from a Windows NT 4.0 domain to a Samba
2604 domain and maintaining user, group and domain SIDs.
2606 11) Support for establishing trust relationships with Windows NT 4.0
2607 domain controllers.
2609 12) Initial support for a distributed Winbind architecture using
2610 an LDAP directory for storing SID to uid/gid mappings.
2612 13) Major updates to the Samba documentation tree.
2614 14) Full support for client and server SMB signing to ensure
2615 compatibility with default Windows 2003 security settings.
2617 15) Improvement of ACL mapping features based on code donated by
2618 Andreas Grünbacher.
2621 Plus lots of other improvements!
2624 Additional Documentation
2625 ------------------------
2627 Please refer to Samba documentation tree (included in the docs/
2628 subdirectory) for extensive explanations of installing, configuring
2629 and maintaining Samba 3.0 servers and clients. It is advised to
2630 begin with the Samba-HOWTO-Collection for overviews and specific
2631 tasks (the current book is up to approximately 400 pages) and to
2632 refer to the various man pages for information on individual options.
2634 We are very glad to be able to include the second edition of
2635 "Using Samba" by Jay Ts, Robert Eckstein, and David Collier-Brown
2636 (O'Reilly & Associates) in this release. The book is available
2637 on-line at http://samba.org/samba/docs/ and is included with
2638 the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). Thanks to the authors and
2639 publisher for making "Using Samba" under the GNU Free Documentation
2640 License.
2643 ######################################################################
2644 Upgrading from a previous Samba 3.0 beta
2645 ########################################
2647 Beginning with Samba 3.0.0beta3, the RID allocation functions
2648 have been moved into winbindd. Previously these were handled
2649 by each passdb backend. This means that winbindd must be running
2650 to automatically allocate RIDs for users and/or groups. Otherwise,
2651 smbd will use the 2.2 algorithm for generating new RIDs.
2653 If you are using 'passdb backend = tdbsam' with a previous Samba
2654 3.0 beta release (or possibly alpha), it may be necessary to
2655 move the RID_COUNTER entry from /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
2656 to winbindd_idmap.tdb. To do this:
2658 1) Ensure that winbindd_idmap.tdb exists (launch winbindd at least
2659 once)
2660 2) build tdbtool by executing 'make tdbtool' in the source/tdb/
2661 directory
2662 3) run: (note that 'tdb>' is the tool's prompt for input)
2664 root# ./tdbtool /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
2665 tdb> show RID_COUNTER
2666 key 12 bytes
2667 RID_COUNTER
2668 data 4 bytes
2669 [000] 0A 52 00 00 .R.
2671 tdb> move RID_COUNTER /usr/local/samba/var/locks/winbindd_idmap.tdb
2672 ....
2673 record moved
2675 If you are using 'passdb backend = ldapsam', it will be necessary to
2676 store idmap entries in the LDAP directory as well (i.e. idmap backend
2677 = ldap). Refer to the 'net idmap' command for more information on
2678 migrating SID<->UNIX id mappings from one backend to another.
2680 If the RID_COUNTER record does not exist, then these instructions are
2681 unneccessary and the new RID_COUNTER record will be correctly generated
2682 if needed.

2864 upgrade databases as they are opened (if necessary), but downgrading
2865 from 3.0 to 2.2 is an unsupported path.
2867 Name Description Backup?
2868 ---- ----------- -------
2869 account_policy User policy settings yes
2870 gencache Generic caching db no
2871 group_mapping Mapping table from Windows yes
2872 groups/SID to unix groups
2873 winbindd_idmap ID map table from SIDS to UNIX yes
2874 uids/gids.
2875 namecache Name resolution cache entries no
2876 netsamlogon_cache Cache of NET_USER_INFO_3 structure no
2877 returned as part of a successful
2878 net_sam_logon request
2879 printing/*.tdb Cached output from 'lpq no
2880 command' created on a per print
2881 service basis
2882 registry Read-only samba registry skeleton no
2883 that provides support for exporting
2884 various db tables via the winreg RPCs
2887 Changes in Behavior
2888 -------------------
2890 The following issues are known changes in behavior between Samba 2.2 and
2891 Samba 3.0 that may affect certain installations of Samba.
2893 1) When operating as a member of a Windows domain, Samba 2.2 would
2894 map any users authenticated by the remote DC to the 'guest account'
2895 if a uid could not be obtained via the getpwnam() call. Samba 3.0
2896 rejects the connection as NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. There is no
2897 current work around to re-establish the 2.2 behavior.
2899 2) When adding machines to a Samba 2.2 controlled domain, the
2900 'add user script' was used to create the UNIX identity of the
2901 machine trust account. Samba 3.0 introduces a new 'add machine
2902 script' that must be specified for this purpose. Samba 3.0 will
2903 not fall back to using the 'add user script' in the absence of
2904 an 'add machine script'
2907 ######################################################################
2908 Passdb Backends and Authentication
2909 ##################################
2911 There have been a few new changes that Samba administrators should be
2912 aware of when moving to Samba 3.0.
2914 1) encrypted passwords have been enabled by default in order to
2915 inter-operate better with out-of-the-box Windows client
2916 installations. This does mean that either (a) a samba account
2917 must be created for each user, or (b) 'encrypt passwords = no'
2918 must be explicitly defined in smb.conf.
2920 2) Inclusion of new 'security = ads' option for integration
2921 with an Active Directory domain using the native Windows
2922 Kerberos 5 and LDAP protocols.
2924 MIT kerberos 1.3.1 supports the ARCFOUR-HMAC-MD5 encryption
2925 type which is neccessary for servers on which the
2926 administrator password has not been changed, or kerberos-enabled
2927 SMB connections to servers that require Kerberos SMB signing.
2928 Besides this one difference, either MIT or Heimdal Kerberos
2929 distributions are usable by Samba 3.0.
2932 Samba 3.0 also includes the possibility of setting up chains
2933 of authentication methods (auth methods) and account storage
2934 backends (passdb backend). Please refer to the smb.conf(5)
2935 man page for details. While both parameters assume sane default
2936 values, it is likely that you will need to understand what the
2937 values actually mean in order to ensure Samba operates correctly.
2939 The recommended passdb backends at this time are
2941 * smbpasswd - 2.2 compatible flat file format
2942 * tdbsam - attribute rich database intended as an smbpasswd
2943 replacement for stand alone servers
2944 * ldapsam - attribute rich account storage and retrieval
2945 backend utilizing an LDAP directory.
2946 * ldapsam_compat - a 2.2 backward compatible LDAP account
2947 backend
2949 Certain functions of the smbpasswd(8) tool have been split between the
2950 new smbpasswd(8) utility, the net(8) tool, and the new pdbedit(8)
2951 utility. See the respective man pages for details.

2955 LDAP
2956 ####
2958 This section outlines the new features affecting Samba / LDAP
2959 integration.
2961 New Schema
2962 ----------
2964 A new object class (sambaSamAccount) has been introduced to replace
2965 the old sambaAccount. This change aids us in the renaming of
2966 attributes to prevent clashes with attributes from other vendors.
2967 There is a conversion script (examples/LDAP/convertSambaAccount) to
2968 modify and LDIF file to the new schema.
2970 Example:
2972 $ ldapsearch .... -b "ou=people,dc=..." > sambaAcct.ldif
2973 $ convertSambaAccount --sid=<Domain SID> \
2974 --input=sambaAcct.ldif --output=sambaSamAcct.ldif \
2975 --changetype=[modify|add]
2977 The <DOM SID> can be obtained by running 'net getlocalsid
2978 <DOMAINNAME>' on the Samba PDC as root. The changetype determines
2979 the format of the generated LDIF output--either create new entries
2980 or modify existing entries.
2982 The old sambaAccount schema may still be used by specifying the
2983 "ldapsam_compat" passdb backend. However, the sambaAccount and
2984 associated attributes have been moved to the historical section of
2985 the schema file and must be uncommented before use if needed.
2986 The 2.2 object class declaration for a sambaAccount has not changed
2987 in the 3.0 samba.schema file.
2989 Other new object classes and their uses include:
2991 * sambaDomain - domain information used to allocate rids
2992 for users and groups as necessary. The attributes are added
2993 in 'ldap suffix' directory entry automatically if
2994 an idmap uid/gid range has been set and the 'ldapsam'
2995 passdb backend has been selected.
2997 * sambaGroupMapping - an object representing the
2998 relationship between a posixGroup and a Windows
2999 group/SID. These entries are stored in the 'ldap
3000 group suffix' and managed by the 'net groupmap' command.
3002 * sambaUnixIdPool - created in the 'ldap idmap suffix' entry
3003 automatically and contains the next available 'idmap uid' and
3004 'idmap gid'
3006 * sambaIdmapEntry - object storing a mapping between a
3007 SID and a UNIX uid/gid. These objects are created by the
3008 idmap_ldap module as needed.
3010 * sambaSidEntry - object representing a SID alone, as a Structural
3011 class on which to build the sambaIdmapEntry.
3014 New Suffix for Searching
3015 ------------------------
3017 The following new smb.conf parameters have been added to aid in directing
3018 certain LDAP queries when 'passdb backend = ldapsam://...' has been
3019 specified.
3021 * ldap suffix - used to search for user and computer accounts
3022 * ldap user suffix - used to store user accounts
3023 * ldap machine suffix - used to store machine trust accounts
3024 * ldap group suffix - location of posixGroup/sambaGroupMapping entries
3025 * ldap idmap suffix - location of sambaIdmapEntry objects
3027 If an 'ldap suffix' is defined, it will be appended to all of the
3028 remaining sub-suffix parameters. In this case, the order of the suffix
3029 listings in smb.conf is important. Always place the 'ldap suffix' first
3030 in the list.
3032 Due to a limitation in Samba's smb.conf parsing, you should not surround
3033 the DN's with quotation marks.
3036 IdMap LDAP support
3037 ------------------
3039 Samba 3.0 supports an ldap backend for the idmap subsystem. The
3040 following options would inform Samba that the idmap table should be
3041 stored on the directory server onterose in the "ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,
3042 dc=org" partition.
3044 [global]
3045 ...
3046 idmap backend = ldap:ldap://onterose/
3047 ldap idmap suffix = ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,dc=org
3048 idmap uid = 40000-50000
3049 idmap gid = 40000-50000
3051 This configuration allows winbind installations on multiple servers to
3052 share a uid/gid number space, thus avoiding the interoperability problems
3053 with NFS that were present in Samba 2.2.
3057 ######################################################################
3058 Trust Relationships and a Samba Domain
3059 ######################################
3061 Samba 3.0.0beta2 is able to utilize winbindd as the means of
3062 allocating uids and gids to trusted users and groups. More
3063 information regarding Samba's support for establishing trust
3064 relationships can be found in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection included
3065 in the docs/ directory of this release.
3067 First create your Samba PDC and ensure that everything is
3068 working correctly before moving on the trusts.
3070 To establish Samba as the trusting domain (named SAMBA) from a Windows NT
3071 4.0 domain named WINDOWS:
3073 1) create the trust account for SAMBA in "User Manager for Domains"
3074 2) connect the trust from the Samba domain using
3075 'net rpc trustdom establish GLASS'
3077 To create a trustlationship with SAMBA as the trusted domain:
3079 1) create the initial trust account for GLASS using
3080 'smbpasswd -a -i GLASS'. You may need to create a UNIX
3081 account for GLASS$ prior to this step (depending on your
3082 local configuration).
3083 2) connect the trust from a WINDOWS DC using "User Manager
3084 for Domains"
3086 Now join winbindd on the Samba PDC to the SAMBA domain using
3087 the normal steps for adding a Samba server to an NT4 domain:
3088 (note that smbd & nmbd must be running at this point)
3090 root# net rpc join -U root
3091 Password: <enter root password from smbpasswd file here>
3093 Start winbindd and test the join with 'wbinfo -t'.
3095 Now test the trust relationship by connecting to the SAMBA DC
3096 (e.g. POGO) as a user from the WINDOWS domain:
3098 $ smbclient //pogo/netlogon -U Administrator -W WINDOWS
3099 Password:
3101 Now connect to the WINDOWS DC (e.g. CRYSTAL) as a Samba user:
3103 $ smbclient //crystal/netlogon -U root -W WINDOWS
3104 Password:

3107 Changes in Winbind
3108 ##################
3110 Beginning with Samba3.0.0beta3, winbindd has been given new account
3111 manage functionality equivalent to the 'add user script' family of
3112 smb.conf parameters. The idmap design has also been changed to
3113 centralize control of foreign SID lookups and matching to UNIX
3114 uids and gids.
3117 Brief Description of Changes
3118 ----------------------------
3120 1) The sid_to_uid() family of functions (smbd/uid.c) have been
3121 reverted to the 2.2.x design. This means that when resolving a
3122 SID to a UID or similar mapping:
3124 a) First consult winbindd
3125 b) perform a local lookup only if winbindd fails to
3126 return a successful answer
3128 There are some variations to this, but these two rules generally
3129 apply.
3131 2) All idmap lookups have been moved into winbindd. This means that
3132 a server must run winbindd (and support NSS) in order to achieve
3133 any mappings of SID to dynamically allocated UNIX ids. This was
3134 a conscious design choice.
3136 3) New functions have been added to winbindd to emulate the 'add user
3137 script' family of smbd functions without requiring that external
3138 scripts be defined. This functionality is controlled by the 'winbind
3139 enable local accounts' smb.conf parameter (enabled by default).
3141 However, this account management functionality is only supported
3142 in a local tdb (winbindd_idmap.tdb). If these new UNIX accounts
3143 must be shared among multiple Samba servers (such as a PDC and BDCs),
3144 it will be necessary to define your own 'add user script', et. al.
3145 programs that place the accounts/groups in some form of directory
3146 such as NIS or LDAP. This requirement was deemed beyond the scope
3147 of winbind's account management functions. Solutions for
3148 distributing UNIX system information have been deployed and tested
3149 for many years. We saw no need to reinvent the wheel.
3151 4) A member of a Samba controlled domain running winbindd is now able
3152 to map domain users directly onto existing UNIX accounts while still
3153 automatically creating accounts for trusted users and groups. This
3154 behavior is controlled by the 'winbind trusted domains only' smb.conf
3155 parameter (disabled by default to provide 2.2.x winbind behavior).
3157 5) Group mapping support is wrapped in the local_XX_to_XX() functions
3158 in smbd/uid.c. The reason that group mappings are not included
3159 in winbindd is because the purpose of Samba's group map is to
3160 match any Windows SID with an existing UNIX group. These UNIX
3161 groups can be created by winbindd (see next section), but the
3162 SID<->gid mapping is retreived by smbd, not winbindd.
3165 Examples
3166 --------
3168 * security = server running winbindd to allocate accounts on demand
3170 * Samba PDC running winbindd to handle the automatic creation of UNIX
3171 identities for machine trust accounts
3173 * Automtically creating UNIX user and groups when migrating a Windows NT
3174 4.0 PDC to a Samba PDC. Winbindd must be running when executing
3175 'net rpc vampire' for this to work.
