1493 Release Notes for Samba 3.2.0
1495 ==============================
1497 This is the first stable release of Samba 3.2.0.
1499 Please be aware that Samba is now distributed under the version 3
1500 of the new GNU General Public License. You may refer to the COPYING
1501 file that accompanies these release notes for further licensing details.
1503 Major enhancements in Samba 3.2.0 include:
1506 o Use of IDL generated parsing layer for several DCE/RPC
1508 o Removal of the 1024 byte limit on pathnames and 256 byte limit on
1509 filename components to honor the MAX_PATH setting from the host OS.
1510 o Introduction of a registry based configuration system.
1511 o Improved CIFS Unix Extensions support.
1512 o Experimental support for file serving clusters.
1513 o Support for IPv6 in the server, and client tools and libraries.
1514 o Support for storing alternate data streams in xattrs.
1515 o Encrypted SMB transport in client tools and libraries, and server.
1516 o Support for Vista clients authenticating via Kerberos.
1518 Winbind and Active Directory Integration:
1519 o Full support for Windows 2003 cross-forest, transitive trusts
1520 and one-way domain trusts.
1521 o Support for userPrincipalName logons via pam_winbind and NSS
1523 o Expansion of nested domain groups via NSS calls.
1524 o Support for Active Directory LDAP Signing policy.
1525 o New LGPL Winbind client library (libwbclient.so).
1526 o Support for establishing interdomain trust relationships with
1530 o New NetApi library for domain join related queries (libnetapi.so)
1531 and example GTK+ Domain join gui.
1532 o New client and server support for remotely joining and unjoining
1534 o Support for joining into Windows 2008 domains.
1537 o New ldb backend for local group mapping tables
1538 o Raised level of security defaults for authentication operations.
1539 o New NetApi library for user account related queries.
1543 Now Licensed under the GNU GPLv3
1544 ================================
1546 The Samba Team has adopted the Version 3 of the GNU General Public
1547 License for the 3.2 and later releases. The GPLv3 is the updated
1548 version of the GPLv2 license under which Samba is currently
1549 distributed. It has been updated to improve compatibility with other
1550 licenses and to make it easier to adopt internationally, and is an
1551 improved version of the license to better suit the needs of Free
1552 Software in the 21st Century.
1554 The original announcement is available on-line at
1556 http://news.samba.org/announcements/samba_gplv3/
1559 New Security Defaults for Authentication
1560 ========================================
1562 Support for LanMan passwords is now disabled in both client and server
1563 applications. Additionally, clear text authentication requests are
1564 disabled by default in client utilities such as smbclient and all
1565 libsmbclient based applications. This will affect connection both
1566 to and from hosts running DOS, Windows 9x/ME, and OS/2. Please refer
1567 to the "Changes" section for details on the exact parameters that were
1571 Registry Configuration Backend
1572 ==============================
1574 Samba is now able to use a registry based configuration backed to
1575 supplement smb.conf settings. This feature may be enabled by setting
1576 "config backend = registry" in the [global] section of smb.conf for a
1577 registry only configuration, or by specifying "include = registry" to
1578 include global options from registry for a mixed setup.
1580 The new parameter "registry shares = yes" in the [global] section of
1581 smb.conf can be used to activate share definitions from registry.
1582 These shares are loaded on demand by the server. Registry shares are
1583 automatically activated by the global registry options above.
1585 The configuration stored in registry can be conveniently managed using
1586 the "net conf" command.
1588 More information may be obtained from the smb.conf(5) and net(8) man
1595 Both the Python bindings and the libmsrpc shared library have been
1596 removed from the tree due to lack of an official maintainer.
1598 As smbfs is no longer supported in current kernel versions, smbmount has
1599 been removed in this Samba version. Please use cifs (mount.cifs) instead.
1600 See examples/scripts/mount/mount.smbfs as an example for a wrapper which
1601 calls mount.cifs instead of smbmount/mount.smbfs.
1604 Modified API for libsmbclient
1605 ==============================================================================
1607 Maintaining ABI compatibility for libsmbclient has become increasingly
1608 difficult to accomplish, while also keeping the code organization such that it
1609 is easily readable. Towards the goal of maintaining ABI compatibility and
1610 also keeping the code easy to maintain and enhance, the API has been enhanced.
1611 In particular, the fields in the SMBCCTX context structure are no longer
1612 intended to be read/write by the user, and are marked as deprecated. An
1613 application that previously accessed the members of the SMBCCTX context
1614 structure will now encounter warnings if recompiled. This is intentional, to
1615 encourage implementation of the small changes required for the new interface.
1616 The number of changes is expected to be quite small for the vast majority of
1617 applications, and no changes need be made for many applications. The changes
1618 required for KDE (konqueror) to conform to the new interface, for example, are
1619 only four lines in only one file.
1621 Instead of the application manually changing or reading values in the context
1622 structure, there are now setter and getter functions for each configurable
1623 member in that structure. Similarly, the smbc_option_get() and
1624 smbc_option_set() functions are deprecated in favor of the setter/getter
1625 interface. The setters and getters are all documented in libsmbclient.h
1626 under these comment blocks:
1628 Getters and setters for CONFIGURATION
1629 Getters and setters for OPTIONS
1630 Getters and setters for FUNCTIONS
1631 Callable functions for files
1632 Callable functions for directories
1633 Callable functions applicable to both files and directories
1635 Example changes that may be required to eliminate "deprecated" warnings:
1637 /* Set the debug level */
1638 context->debug = 99;
1640 smbc_setDebug(context, 99);
1642 /* Specify the authentication callback function */
1643 context->callbacks.auth_fn = auth_smbc_get_data;
1645 smbc_setFunctionAuthData(context, auth_smbc_get_data);
1647 /* Specify the new-style authentication callback with context parameter */
1648 smbc_option_set("auth_function", auth_smbc_get_data_with_ctx);
1650 smbc_setFunctionAuthDataWithContext(context, auth_smbc_get_data_with_ctx);
1652 /* Set kerberos flags */
1653 context->flags = (SMB_CTX_FLAG_USE_KERBEROS |
1654 SMB_CTX_FLAG_FALLBACK_AFTER_KERBEROS);
1656 smbc_setOptionUseKerberos(context, 1);
1657 smbc_setOptionFallbackAfterKerberos(context, 1);

1860 Release Notes for Samba 3.2.10
1862 ==============================
1865 This is a maintenance release of the Samba 3.2 series.
1867 In Samba 3.2.9, there is an issue while migrating passdb.tdb files from older
1868 Samba versions (e.g. 3.2.8). That causes panics of smbd child processes until
1869 the parent smbd is restarted once after converting the passdb.tdb file. This
1870 issue is fixed in Samba 3.2.10.
1872 Sorry for the inconveniences!

3129 Release Notes for Samba 3.2.0
3131 ==============================
3133 This is the first stable release of Samba 3.2.0.
3135 Please be aware that Samba is now distributed under the version 3
3136 of the new GNU General Public License. You may refer to the COPYING
3137 file that accompanies these release notes for further licensing details.
3139 Major enhancements in Samba 3.2.0 include:
3142 o Use of IDL generated parsing layer for several DCE/RPC
3144 o Removal of the 1024 byte limit on pathnames and 256 byte limit on
3145 filename components to honor the MAX_PATH setting from the host OS.
3146 o Introduction of a registry based configuration system.
3147 o Improved CIFS Unix Extensions support.
3148 o Experimental support for file serving clusters.
3149 o Support for IPv6 in the server, and client tools and libraries.
3150 o Support for storing alternate data streams in xattrs.
3151 o Encrypted SMB transport in client tools and libraries, and server.
3152 o Support for Vista clients authenticating via Kerberos.
3154 Winbind and Active Directory Integration:
3155 o Full support for Windows 2003 cross-forest, transitive trusts
3156 and one-way domain trusts.
3157 o Support for userPrincipalName logons via pam_winbind and NSS
3159 o Expansion of nested domain groups via NSS calls.
3160 o Support for Active Directory LDAP Signing policy.
3161 o New LGPL Winbind client library (libwbclient.so).
3162 o Support for establishing interdomain trust relationships with
3166 o New NetApi library for domain join related queries (libnetapi.so)
3167 and example GTK+ Domain join gui.
3168 o New client and server support for remotely joining and unjoining
3170 o Support for joining into Windows 2008 domains.
3173 o New ldb backend for local group mapping tables
3174 o Raised level of security defaults for authentication operations.
3175 o New NetApi library for user account related queries.
3179 Now Licensed under the GNU GPLv3
3180 ================================
3182 The Samba Team has adopted the Version 3 of the GNU General Public
3183 License for the 3.2 and later releases. The GPLv3 is the updated
3184 version of the GPLv2 license under which Samba is currently
3185 distributed. It has been updated to improve compatibility with other
3186 licenses and to make it easier to adopt internationally, and is an
3187 improved version of the license to better suit the needs of Free
3188 Software in the 21st Century.
3190 The original announcement is available on-line at
3192 http://news.samba.org/announcements/samba_gplv3/
3195 New Security Defaults for Authentication
3196 ========================================
3198 Support for LanMan passwords is now disabled in both client and server
3199 applications. Additionally, clear text authentication requests are
3200 disabled by default in client utilities such as smbclient and all
3201 libsmbclient based applications. This will affect connection both
3202 to and from hosts running DOS, Windows 9x/ME, and OS/2. Please refer
3203 to the "Changes" section for details on the exact parameters that were
3207 Registry Configuration Backend
3208 ==============================
3210 Samba is now able to use a registry based configuration backed to
3211 supplement smb.conf settings. This feature may be enabled by setting
3212 "config backend = registry" in the [global] section of smb.conf for a
3213 registry only configuration, or by specifying "include = registry" to
3214 include global options from registry for a mixed setup.
3216 The new parameter "registry shares = yes" in the [global] section of
3217 smb.conf can be used to activate share definitions from registry.
3218 These shares are loaded on demand by the server. Registry shares are
3219 automatically activated by the global registry options above.
3221 The configuration stored in registry can be conveniently managed using
3222 the "net conf" command.
3224 More information may be obtained from the smb.conf(5) and net(8) man
3231 Both the Python bindings and the libmsrpc shared library have been
3232 removed from the tree due to lack of an official maintainer.
3234 As smbfs is no longer supported in current kernel versions, smbmount has
3235 been removed in this Samba version. Please use cifs (mount.cifs) instead.
3236 See examples/scripts/mount/mount.smbfs as an example for a wrapper which
3237 calls mount.cifs instead of smbmount/mount.smbfs.
3240 Modified API for libsmbclient
3241 ==============================================================================
3243 Maintaining ABI compatibility for libsmbclient has become increasingly
3244 difficult to accomplish, while also keeping the code organization such that it
3245 is easily readable. Towards the goal of maintaining ABI compatibility and
3246 also keeping the code easy to maintain and enhance, the API has been enhanced.
3247 In particular, the fields in the SMBCCTX context structure are no longer
3248 intended to be read/write by the user, and are marked as deprecated. An
3249 application that previously accessed the members of the SMBCCTX context
3250 structure will now encounter warnings if recompiled. This is intentional, to
3251 encourage implementation of the small changes required for the new interface.
3252 The number of changes is expected to be quite small for the vast majority of
3253 applications, and no changes need be made for many applications. The changes
3254 required for KDE (konqueror) to conform to the new interface, for example, are
3255 only four lines in only one file.
3257 Instead of the application manually changing or reading values in the context
3258 structure, there are now setter and getter functions for each configurable
3259 member in that structure. Similarly, the smbc_option_get() and
3260 smbc_option_set() functions are deprecated in favor of the setter/getter
3261 interface. The setters and getters are all documented in libsmbclient.h
3262 under these comment blocks:
3264 Getters and setters for CONFIGURATION
3265 Getters and setters for OPTIONS
3266 Getters and setters for FUNCTIONS
3267 Callable functions for files
3268 Callable functions for directories
3269 Callable functions applicable to both files and directories
3271 Example changes that may be required to eliminate "deprecated" warnings:
3273 /* Set the debug level */
3274 context->debug = 99;
3276 smbc_setDebug(context, 99);
3278 /* Specify the authentication callback function */
3279 context->callbacks.auth_fn = auth_smbc_get_data;
3281 smbc_setFunctionAuthData(context, auth_smbc_get_data);
3283 /* Specify the new-style authentication callback with context parameter */
3284 smbc_option_set("auth_function", auth_smbc_get_data_with_ctx);
3286 smbc_setFunctionAuthDataWithContext(context, auth_smbc_get_data_with_ctx);
3288 /* Set kerberos flags */
3289 context->flags = (SMB_CTX_FLAG_USE_KERBEROS |
3290 SMB_CTX_FLAG_FALLBACK_AFTER_KERBEROS);
3292 smbc_setOptionUseKerberos(context, 1);
3293 smbc_setOptionFallbackAfterKerberos(context, 1);
