2 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23rc2
4 =================================
6 This is the second release candidate of the 3.0.23 code base and is
7 provided for testing purposes only. While close to the final stable
8 release, this snapshot is *not* intended for production servers.
9 Your testing and feedback is greatly appreciated.
11 Thanks very much to those people who spent time testing the RC1
12 release and reported their findings. We would like to especially
13 thank Thomas Bork <tombork@web.de> for his numerous reports.
14 We believe that RC2 is in much better shape in a large part due
17 We would also like to thank the developers of Klokwork for their
18 analysis of the Samba source tree. This release candidates includes
19 multiple fixes based on reports from the Klokwork code analyzer.
21 Common issues addressed in 3.0.23rc2 include:
23 o Winbindd & Samba PDC integration issues.
24 o Join problems from Windows clients in a Samba domain.
25 o Winbind & AD trust failures.
31 The default mapping entries for groups such as "Domain Admins"
32 are no longer created when using an smbpasswd file or a tdbsam passdb
33 backend. This means that it is necessary to use 'net groupmap add'
34 rathe than 'net groupmap modify' to set these entries. This change
35 has no effect on winbindd's IDmap functionality for domain groups.

413 ==================================
414 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23pre1
416 ==================================
418 New features introduced in 3.0.23pre1 include:
420 o New offline mode in winbindd.
421 o New kerberos support for pam_winbind.so.
422 o New handling of unmapped users and groups.
423 o New non-root share management tools.
424 o Improved support for local and BUILTIN groups.
427 User and Group changes
428 ======================
430 The user and group internal management routines have been rewritten
431 to prevent overlaps of assigned Relative Identifiers (RIDs).
432 In the past the has been a potential problem when either manually
433 mapping Unix groups with the 'net groupmap' command or when
434 migrating a Windows domain to a Samba domain using 'net rpc vampire'.
436 Unmapped users are now assigned a SID in the S-1-22-1 domain and
437 unmapped groups are assigned a SID in the S-1-22-2 domain.
438 Previously they were assign a RID within the SAM on the Samba
439 server. For a DC this would have been under the authority of
440 the domain SID where as on a member server or standalone host,
441 this would have been under the authority of the local SAM
442 (hint: net getlocalsid).
444 The result is that any unmapped users or groups on an upgraded
445 Samba domain controller may be assigned a new SID. Because the
446 SID rather than a name is stored in Windows security descriptors,
447 this can cause a user to no longer have access to a resource
448 for example if a file was copied from a Samba file server to
449 a local NTFS partition. Any files stored on the Samba server
450 itself will continue to be accessible because Unix stores the
451 Unix gid and not the SID for authorization checks.
453 A further example will help illustrate the change. Assume
454 that a group named 'developers' exists with a Unix gid of
455 782 but this user does not exist in Samba's group mapping
456 table. it would be perfectly normal for this group to be
457 appear in an ACL editor. Prior to 3.0.23, the group SID might
458 appear as S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565.
459 With 3.0.23, the group SID would be reported as S-1-22-2-782.
460 Any security descriptors associated with files stored on
461 an NTFS disk partition would not allow access based on the
462 group permissions if the user was not a member of the
463 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565 group.
464 Because this group SID not reported in a user's token is
465 S-1-22-2-782, Windows would fail the authorization check
466 even though both SIDs in some respect referred to the same
469 The current workaround is to create a manual domain group
470 mapping entry for the group 'developers' to point at the
471 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565 SID.
477 There has also been a minor update the Samba LDAP schema file.
478 A substring matching rule has been added to the sambaSID attribute
479 definition. For OpenLDAP servers, this will require the addition
480 of 'index sambaSID sub' to the slapd.conf configuration file. It
481 will be necessary to run slapindex after making this change.
482 There has been no change to actual data storage schema.

806 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.22
808 ==============================
810 This is a security release of Samba. The Samba 3.0.21 release
811 series (including the patch releases a through c) has been
812 discovered to expose the clear text of the server's machine
813 account credentials in the winbind log files when the log
814 level is set to 5 or higher. This defect has been assigned
815 the CVE number CAN-2006-1059.
820 The machine trust account password is the secret shared
821 between a domain controller and a specific member server.
822 Access to the member server machine credentials allows
823 an attacker to impersonate the server in the domain and
824 gain access to additional information regarding domain
827 The winbindd daemon included in Samba 3.0.21 and subsequent
828 patch releases (3.0.21a-c) writes the clear text of server's
829 machine credentials to its log file at level 5. The winbindd
830 log files are world readable by default and often log files
831 are requested on open mailing lists as tools used to debug
832 server misconfigurations.
834 This affects servers configured to use domain or ads security
835 and possibly Samba domain controllers as well (if configured

1690 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.20a
1692 ===============================
1694 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.20a include:
1696 o Stability problems with winbindd.
1697 o Crash bugs caused by incompatibilities on 64-bit systems.
1698 o Missing files from directory listings on AIX servers
1699 o User Manager interoperability problems.
1700 o Minor build difficulties on various platforms such as
1701 Solaris and OpenBSD,
1704 Winbind, security = domain, and Active Directory
1705 ================================================
1707 Recent security updates for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 have
1708 changed the fashion in which user and group lists can be obtained
1709 from domain controllers. In short, the RPC mechanisms used by
1710 "security = domain" to retrieve users and groups is not compatible
1711 with these changes. The "security = ads" configuration is not
1712 affected by the Windows protocol changes.
1714 Samba developers are actively working to correct this problem in
1715 the 3.0.21 release. In the meantime, Administrators who are unable
1716 to migrate to "security = ads" and must continue using "security =
1717 domain", can define credentials to be used by winbindd for account
1718 enumeration by executing the following command as root.

1841 ==============================
1842 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.20
1844 ==============================
1846 Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.20 include:
1848 o Support for several new Win32 rpc pipes.
1849 o Improved support for OS/2 clients.
1850 o New 'net rpc service' tool for managing Win32 services.
1851 o Capability to set the owner on new files and directory
1852 based on the parent's ownership.
1853 o Experimental, asynchronous IO file serving support.
1854 o Completed Support for Microsoft Print Migrator.
1855 o New Winbind IDmap plugin (ad) for retrieving uid and gid
1856 from AD servers which maintain the SFU user and group
1858 o Rewritten support for POSIX pathnames when utilizing
1859 the Linux CIFS fs client.
1860 o New asynchronous winbindd.
1861 o Support for Microsoft Print Migrator.
1862 o New Windows NT registry file I/O library.
1863 o New user right (SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege) added.
1864 o New "net share migrate" options.
1867 What happened to 3.0.15 - 3.0.19?
1868 ==================================
1870 After some discussion it was deemed that the amount of changes
1871 going into the next Samba 3.0 release needed something to catch
1872 people's attention. Skipping several releases was chosen as
1873 the best solution with the least overhead. There will be no
1874 3.0.15 - 3.0.19 ever released. The next production release
1875 following 3.0.20 should be 3.0.21.
1877 The original announcement about the version number change can
1878 be found in the samba mailing list archives:
1880 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=samba&m=111721010206997&w=2
1883 Asynchronous Winbind Implementation
1884 ===================================
1886 Winbindd has been completely rewritten in this release to support
1887 an almost completely non-blocking, asynchronous request/reply
1888 model. This means that winbindd will scale much better in
1889 large domain environments and on high latency networks. Neither
1890 the client interface nor the command line tools (i.e. wbinfo) have
1891 changed in their calling conventions or syntax. However, due to
1892 internal structure changes, it is required (more so than normal)
1893 that you install the nss_winbind.so library included in this release.
1896 Support for Microsoft Print Migrator
1897 ====================================
1899 Samba 3.0.20 includes full support for migrating printers from
1900 Windows servers or other Samba servers via the Microsoft Print
1901 Migrator tool. Restoring printers requires a working "add printer
1902 command" defined in smb.conf. Current support also allows
1903 administrators to create a master list of printer drivers which
1904 can be restored in bulk on new (or existing) Samba installations.
1907 Asynchronous IO Support
1908 =======================
1910 Experimental support for async IO has been added to smbd for
1911 certain platforms. To enable this new feature, Samba must be
1912 compiled to include the --with-aio-support configure option.
1913 In addition, the "aio read size" and "aio write size" to non-zero
1914 values. See the smb.conf(5) man page for more details on these

2817 ==============================
2819 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.12 include:
2821 o Winbind failures when using 'disable netbios = yes'
2822 o Failure to establish a trust relationship via 'net rpc trust
2824 o Various portability & compiler issues.
2825 o Read only file deletion failure caused by new delete semantics
2826 in Windows XP SP2 and the MS 04-044 security hotfix.

2849 =======================
2850 Large Directory Support
2851 =======================
2853 Samba 3.0.12pre1 introduces a specific mechanism for dealing
2854 with file services that frequently contain a large number of files
2855 per directory. Historically Samba's performance has suffered
2856 in such environments due to the translation from case
2857 insensitive lookups by Windows client to the case sensitive
2858 storage mechanisms used by UNIX filesystems.
2860 Configuration details along with a short HOWTO can be found at:
2862 http://www.samba.org/samba/ftp/HOWTO/Samba-LargeDirectory-HOWTO
2865 ==================================
2866 libsmbclient Binary Compatibility
2867 ==================================
2869 Please note that a change has been made to the _SMBCCTX structure
2870 in source/include/libsmbclient.h. This change is not backwards
2871 compatible with applications linked against the libsmbclient.so
2872 library from Samba 3.0.11. However, it is compatible with all
2873 other Samba 3.0.x releases. This means that it will be most likely
2874 be necessary to recompile any applications linked against the
2875 3.0.11 version of the library.

3189 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.11
3191 ==============================
3193 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.11 include:
3195 o Crash in smbd when using CUPS printing.
3196 o Parsing error of other SIDs included in the user_info_3
3197 structure returned from domain controllers.
3198 o Inefficiencies when searching non-AD LDAP directories.
3199 o Failure to expand variables in user domain attributes
3200 in tdbsam and ldapsam.
3202 o Failure to retrieve certain attribute when migrating from
3203 a Windows DC to a Samba DC via 'net rpc vampire'.
3204 o Numerous printing bugs bugs including memory
3205 bloating on large/busy print servers.
3206 o Compatibility issues with Exchange 5.5 SP4.
3209 Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.11:
3211 o Winbindd performance improvements.
3212 o More 'net rpc vampire' functionality.
3213 o Support for the Windows privilege model to assign rights
3215 o New administrative options to the 'net rpc' command.
3222 If "ldap user suffix" or "ldap machine suffix" are defined in
3223 smb.conf, all user-accounts must reside below the user suffix,
3224 and all machine and inter-domain trust-accounts must be located
3225 below the machine suffix. Previous Samba releases would fall
3226 back to searching the 'ldap suffix' in some cases.
3233 Samba 3.0.11 supports the following assignable rights
3235 SeMachineAccountPrivilege Add machines to domain
3236 SePrintOperatorPrivilege Manage printers
3237 SeAddUsersPrivilege Add users and groups to the domain
3238 SeRemoteShutdownPrivilege Force shutdown from a remote system
3239 SeDiskOperatorPrivilege Manage disk shares
3241 These rights can be assigned to arbitrary users or groups
3242 via the 'net rpc rights grant/revoke' command. More details
3243 of Samba's privilege implementation can be found in the
3244 Samba-HOWTO-Collection.

3771 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.8
3773 =============================
3775 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.8 include:
3777 o Compile fixes for HP-UX
3778 o Fixes for the printer publishing code used when joined to
3780 o Incompatibilities with file system quotas.
3781 o Several bugs in the spoolss printing code and print system
3783 o Inconsistencies in the username map functionality when
3784 configured on domain member servers.
3785 o Various compile warnings and errors on various platforms.
3786 o Fixes for kerberos interoperability with Windows 200x
3787 domains when using DES keys.
3788 o Fix for CAN-2004-0930 -- smbd remote DoS vulnerability.
3789 o Fix for CAN-2004-0882 -- possible buffer overrun in smbd.
3792 New features included in the 3.0.8 release are:
3794 o New migration functionality added the the net tool
3795 for files/directories, printers, and shares.
3796 o New experimental idmap backend for assigning uids/gids
3797 directly based on the user/group RID when acting as a
3798 member of single domain without any trusts.
3799 o Additional printer migration support for XP/2003 platforms.
3802 ===========================
3803 Change in Winbindd Behavior
3804 ===========================
3806 All usernames returned by winbindd are now converted to lower
3807 case for better consistency. This means any winbind installation
3808 relying on the winbind username will need to rename existing
3809 directories and/or files based on the username (%u and %U) to lower
3810 case (e.g. mv $name `echo $name | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`). This may
3811 include mail spool files, home directories, valid user lines in
3815 ======================
3816 Change in Username Map
3817 ======================
3819 Previous Samba releases would only support reading the fully qualified
3820 username (e.g. DOMAIN\user) from the username map when performing a
3821 kerberos login from a client. However, when looking up a map
3822 entry for a user authenticated by NTLM[SSP], only the login name would be
3823 used for matches. This resulted in inconsistent behavior sometimes
3824 even on the same server.
3826 Samba 3.0.8 obeys the following rules when applying the username
3829 * When performing local authentication, the username map is
3830 applied to the login name before attempting to authenticate
3832 * When relying upon a external domain controller for validating
3833 authentication requests, smbd will apply the username map
3834 to the fully qualified username (i.e. DOMAIN\user) only
3835 after the user has been successfully authenticated.

4373 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.6
4375 =============================
4377 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.6 include:
4379 o Schannel failure in winbindd.
4380 o Numerous memory leaks.
4381 o Incompatibilities between the 'write list' and 'force user'
4383 o Premature optimization of the open_directory() internal
4384 function that broke tools such as the ArcServe backup
4385 agent, Macromedia HomeSite, and Robocopy.
4386 o Corrupt workgroup names in nmbd's browse.dat.
4387 o Sharing violation errors commonly seen when opening
4388 when serving Microsoft Office documents from a Samba
4390 o Browsing problems caused by an apostrophe (') in the
4391 computer's description field.
4392 o Problems creating special file types from UNIX CIFS
4393 clients and enabling 'unix extensions'.
4394 o Fix stalls in smbd caused by inaccessible LDAP servers.
4395 o Remove various memory leaks.
4396 o Fix issues in the password lockout feature.
4398 New features introduced in this release include:
4400 O Support symlinks created by CIFS clients which
4401 can be followed on the server.
4402 o Using a cups server other than localhost.
4403 o Maintaining the service principal entry in the system
4404 keytab for integration with other kerberized services.
4405 Please refer to the 'use kerberos keytab' entry in
4406 smb.conf(5). When using the heimdal kerberos libraries,
4407 you must also specify the following in /etc/krb5.conf:
4409 default_keytab_name = FILE:/etc/krb5.keytab
4410 o Support for maintaining individual printer names
4411 stored separately from the printer's sharename.
4412 o Support for maintaining user password history.
4413 o Support for honoring the logon times for user in a
4417 ============================================
4418 unix extensions = yes (default) and symlinks
4419 ============================================
4421 Beginning with Samba 3.0.6pre1 (formerly known as 3.0.5pre1),
4422 clients supporting the UNIX extensions to the CIFS protocol
4423 can create symlinks to absolute paths which will be **followed**
4424 by the server. This functionality has been requested in order
4425 to correctly support certain applications when the user's home
4426 directory is mounted using some type of CIFS client (e.g. the
4427 cifsvfs in the Linux 2.6 kernel).
4429 If this behavior is not acceptable for your production environment
4430 you can set 'wide links = no' in the specific share declaration in
4431 the server's smb.conf. Be aware that disabling wide link support
4432 out of a share in Samba may impact the server's performance due
4433 to the fact that smbd will now have to check each path additional
4434 times before traversing it.
4437 ========================
4438 Password History Support
4439 ========================
4441 The new password history feature allows smbd to check the new
4442 password in password change requests against a list of the user's
4443 previous passwords. The number of previous passwords to save can
4444 be set using pdbedit (4 in this example):
4446 root# pdbedit -P "password history" -C 4
4448 When using the ldapsam passdb backend, it is vital to secure the
4449 following attributes from access by non-administrative users:
4453 * sambaPasswordHistory
4455 You should refer to your directory server's documentation on how
4456 to implement this restriction.

4872 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.5
4874 =============================
4876 Please note that Samba 3.0.5 is identical to Samba 3.0.4 with
4877 the exception of correcting the two security issues outlined
4880 ######################## SECURITY RELEASE ########################
4882 Summary: Multiple Potential Buffer Overruns in Samba 3.0.x
4883 CVE ID: CAN-2004-0600, CAN-2004-0686
4884 (http://cve.mitre.org/)
4887 This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is the version
4888 that production Samba servers should be running for all current
4891 It has been confirmed that versions of Samba 3 prior to v3.0.4
4892 are vulnerable to two potential buffer overruns. The individual
4893 details are given below.
4899 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.2 and later
4901 The internal routine used by the Samba Web Administration
4902 Tool (SWAT v3.0.2 and later) to decode the base64 data
4903 during HTTP basic authentication is subject to a buffer
4904 overrun caused by an invalid base64 character. It is
4905 recommended that all Samba v3.0.2 or later installations
4906 running SWAT either (a) upgrade to v3.0.5, or (b) disable
4907 the swat administration service as a temporary workaround.
4909 This same code is used internally to decode the
4910 sambaMungedDial attribute value when using the ldapsam
4911 passdb backend. While we do not believe that the base64
4912 decoding routines used by the ldapsam passdb backend can
4913 be exploited, sites using an LDAP directory service with
4914 Samba are strongly encouraged to verify that the DIT only
4915 allows write access to sambaSamAccount attributes by a
4916 sufficiently authorized user.
4918 The Samba Team would like to heartily thank Evgeny Demidov
4919 for analyzing and reporting this bug.
4925 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.0 and later
4927 A buffer overrun has been located in the code used to support
4928 the 'mangling method = hash' smb.conf option. Please be aware
4929 that the default setting for this parameter is 'mangling method
4930 = hash2' and therefore not vulnerable.
4932 Affected Samba 3 installations can avoid this possible security
4933 bug by using the default hash2 mangling method. Server
4934 installations requiring the hash mangling method are encouraged
4935 to upgrade to Samba 3.0.5.

5508 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2a
5510 ==============================
5512 Samba 3.0.2a is a minor patch release for the 3.0.2 code base
5513 to address, in particular, a problem when using pdbedit to
5514 sanitize (--force-initialized-passwords) Samba's tdbsam
5515 backend. This is the latest stable release of Samba. This
5516 is the version that all production Samba servers should be
5517 running for all current bug-fixes.
5519 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
5521 Beginning with Samba 3.0.2, passwords for accounts with a last
5522 change time (LCT-XXX in smbpasswd, sambaPwdLastSet attribute in
5523 ldapsam, etc...) of zero (0) will be regarded as uninitialized
5524 strings. This will cause authentication to fail for such
5525 accounts. If you have valid passwords that meet this criteria,
5526 you must update the last change time to a non-zero value. If you
5527 do not, then 'pdbedit --force-initialized-passwords' will disable
5528 these accounts and reset the password hashes to a string of X's.
5530 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
5539 Please refer to the CVS log for the SAMBA_3_0 branch for complete
5540 details. The list of changes per contributor are as follows:
5543 o Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
5544 * Added paranoia checks in parsing code.
5547 o Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>
5548 * Ensure that changes to uninitialized passwords in ldapsam
5549 are written to the DIT.

5553 * Fixed iterator in tdbsam.
5554 * Fix bug that disabled accounts with a valid NT password
5555 hash, but no LanMan hash.
5558 o Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
5559 * Added missing nosetuid and noexec options.
5562 o Bostjan Golob <golob@gimb.org>

5581 =============================
5582 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2
5584 =============================
5586 It has been confirmed that previous versions of Samba 3.0 are
5587 susceptible to a password initialization bug that could grant an
5588 attacker unauthorized access to a user account created by the
5589 mksmbpasswd.sh shell script.
5591 The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
5592 has assigned the name CAN-2004-0082 to this issue.
5594 Samba administrators not wishing to upgrade to the current
5595 version should download the 3.0.2 release, build the pdbedit
5598 root# pdbedit-3.0.2 --force-initialized-passwords
5600 This will disable all accounts not possessing a valid password
5601 (e.g. the password field has been set a string of X's).
5603 Samba servers running 3.0.2 are not vulnerable to this bug
5604 regardless of whether or not pdbedit has been used to sanitize
5607 Some of the more visible bugs in 3.0.1 addressed in the 3.0.2
5610 o Joining a Samba domain from Pre-SP2 Windows 2000 clients.
5611 o Logging onto a Samba domain from Windows XP clients.
5612 o Problems with the %U and %u smb.conf variables in relation to
5613 Windows 9x/ME clients.
5614 o Kerberos failures due to an invalid in memory keytab detection
5616 o Updates to the ntlm_auth tool.

6100 o Adds a variant of the winbindd_getgroups() call called
6101 winbindd_getusersids() that provides direct SID->SIDs listing of
6102 a users supplementary groups. This is enough to allow non-Samba
6103 applications to do ACL checking.

6194 The original 3.0.0 release notes follow
6195 =======================================
6196 WHATS NEW IN Samba 3.0.0
6198 =======================================
6204 1) Active Directory support. Samba 3.0 is now able to
6205 join a ADS realm as a member server and authenticate
6206 users using LDAP/Kerberos.
6208 2) Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate UNICODE on the wire
6209 and internally there is now a much better infrastructure for
6210 multi-byte and UNICODE character sets.
6212 3) New authentication system. The internal authentication system
6213 has been almost completely rewritten. Most of the changes are
6214 internal, but the new auth system is also very configurable.
6216 4) New default filename mangling system.
6218 5) A new "net" command has been added. It is somewhat similar to
6219 the "net" command in windows. Eventually we plan to replace
6220 numerous other utilities (such as smbpasswd) with subcommands
6223 6) Samba now negotiates NT-style status32 codes on the wire. This
6224 improves error handling a lot.
6226 7) Better Windows 2000/XP/2003 printing support including publishing
6227 printer attributes in active directory.
6229 8) New loadable module support for passdb backends and character
6232 9) New default dual-daemon winbindd support for better performance.
6234 10) Support for migrating from a Windows NT 4.0 domain to a Samba
6235 domain and maintaining user, group and domain SIDs.
6237 11) Support for establishing trust relationships with Windows NT 4.0
6240 12) Initial support for a distributed Winbind architecture using
6241 an LDAP directory for storing SID to uid/gid mappings.
6243 13) Major updates to the Samba documentation tree.
6245 14) Full support for client and server SMB signing to ensure
6246 compatibility with default Windows 2003 security settings.
6248 15) Improvement of ACL mapping features based on code donated by
6252 Plus lots of other improvements!
6255 Additional Documentation
6256 ------------------------
6258 Please refer to Samba documentation tree (included in the docs/
6259 subdirectory) for extensive explanations of installing, configuring
6260 and maintaining Samba 3.0 servers and clients. It is advised to
6261 begin with the Samba-HOWTO-Collection for overviews and specific
6262 tasks (the current book is up to approximately 400 pages) and to
6263 refer to the various man pages for information on individual options.
6265 We are very glad to be able to include the second edition of
6266 "Using Samba" by Jay Ts, Robert Eckstein, and David Collier-Brown
6267 (O'Reilly & Associates) in this release. The book is available
6268 on-line at http://samba.org/samba/docs/ and is included with
6269 the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). Thanks to the authors and
6270 publisher for making "Using Samba" under the GNU Free Documentation
6274 ######################################################################
6275 Upgrading from a previous Samba 3.0 beta
6276 ########################################
6278 Beginning with Samba 3.0.0beta3, the RID allocation functions
6279 have been moved into winbindd. Previously these were handled
6280 by each passdb backend. This means that winbindd must be running
6281 to automatically allocate RIDs for users and/or groups. Otherwise,
6282 smbd will use the 2.2 algorithm for generating new RIDs.
6284 If you are using 'passdb backend = tdbsam' with a previous Samba
6285 3.0 beta release (or possibly alpha), it may be necessary to
6286 move the RID_COUNTER entry from /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
6287 to winbindd_idmap.tdb. To do this:
6289 1) Ensure that winbindd_idmap.tdb exists (launch winbindd at least
6291 2) build tdbtool by executing 'make tdbtool' in the source/tdb/
6293 3) run: (note that 'tdb>' is the tool's prompt for input)
6295 root# ./tdbtool /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
6296 tdb> show RID_COUNTER
6300 [000] 0A 52 00 00 .R.
6302 tdb> move RID_COUNTER /usr/local/samba/var/locks/winbindd_idmap.tdb
6306 If you are using 'passdb backend = ldapsam', it will be necessary to
6307 store idmap entries in the LDAP directory as well (i.e. idmap backend
6308 = ldap). Refer to the 'net idmap' command for more information on
6309 migrating SID<->UNIX id mappings from one backend to another.
6311 If the RID_COUNTER record does not exist, then these instructions are
6312 unneccessary and the new RID_COUNTER record will be correctly generated

6492 This section contains brief descriptions of any new databases
6493 introduced in Samba 3.0. Please remember to backup your existing
6494 ${lock directory}/*tdb before upgrading to Samba 3.0. Samba will
6495 upgrade databases as they are opened (if necessary), but downgrading
6496 from 3.0 to 2.2 is an unsupported path.
6498 Name Description Backup?
6499 ---- ----------- -------
6500 account_policy User policy settings yes
6501 gencache Generic caching db no
6502 group_mapping Mapping table from Windows yes
6503 groups/SID to unix groups
6504 winbindd_idmap ID map table from SIDS to UNIX yes
6506 namecache Name resolution cache entries no

6511 command' created on a per print
6513 registry Read-only samba registry skeleton no
6514 that provides support for exporting
6515 various db tables via the winreg RPCs
6521 The following issues are known changes in behavior between Samba 2.2 and
6522 Samba 3.0 that may affect certain installations of Samba.
6524 1) When operating as a member of a Windows domain, Samba 2.2 would
6525 map any users authenticated by the remote DC to the 'guest account'
6526 if a uid could not be obtained via the getpwnam() call. Samba 3.0
6527 rejects the connection as NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. There is no
6528 current work around to re-establish the 2.2 behavior.
6530 2) When adding machines to a Samba 2.2 controlled domain, the
6531 'add user script' was used to create the UNIX identity of the
6532 machine trust account. Samba 3.0 introduces a new 'add machine
6533 script' that must be specified for this purpose. Samba 3.0 will
6534 not fall back to using the 'add user script' in the absence of
6535 an 'add machine script'
6538 ######################################################################
6539 Passdb Backends and Authentication
6540 ##################################
6542 There have been a few new changes that Samba administrators should be
6543 aware of when moving to Samba 3.0.
6545 1) encrypted passwords have been enabled by default in order to
6546 inter-operate better with out-of-the-box Windows client
6547 installations. This does mean that either (a) a samba account
6548 must be created for each user, or (b) 'encrypt passwords = no'
6549 must be explicitly defined in smb.conf.
6551 2) Inclusion of new 'security = ads' option for integration
6552 with an Active Directory domain using the native Windows
6553 Kerberos 5 and LDAP protocols.
6555 MIT kerberos 1.3.1 supports the ARCFOUR-HMAC-MD5 encryption
6556 type which is neccessary for servers on which the
6557 administrator password has not been changed, or kerberos-enabled
6558 SMB connections to servers that require Kerberos SMB signing.
6559 Besides this one difference, either MIT or Heimdal Kerberos
6560 distributions are usable by Samba 3.0.
6563 Samba 3.0 also includes the possibility of setting up chains
6564 of authentication methods (auth methods) and account storage
6565 backends (passdb backend). Please refer to the smb.conf(5)
6566 man page for details. While both parameters assume sane default
6567 values, it is likely that you will need to understand what the
6568 values actually mean in order to ensure Samba operates correctly.
6570 The recommended passdb backends at this time are
6572 * smbpasswd - 2.2 compatible flat file format
6573 * tdbsam - attribute rich database intended as an smbpasswd
6574 replacement for stand alone servers
6575 * ldapsam - attribute rich account storage and retrieval
6576 backend utilizing an LDAP directory.
6577 * ldapsam_compat - a 2.2 backward compatible LDAP account
6580 Certain functions of the smbpasswd(8) tool have been split between the
6581 new smbpasswd(8) utility, the net(8) tool, and the new pdbedit(8)
6582 utility. See the respective man pages for details.
6585 ######################################################################
6589 This section outlines the new features affecting Samba / LDAP
6595 A new object class (sambaSamAccount) has been introduced to replace
6596 the old sambaAccount. This change aids us in the renaming of
6597 attributes to prevent clashes with attributes from other vendors.
6598 There is a conversion script (examples/LDAP/convertSambaAccount) to
6599 modify and LDIF file to the new schema.
6603 $ ldapsearch .... -b "ou=people,dc=..." > sambaAcct.ldif
6604 $ convertSambaAccount --sid=<Domain SID> \
6605 --input=sambaAcct.ldif --output=sambaSamAcct.ldif \
6606 --changetype=[modify|add]
6608 The <DOM SID> can be obtained by running 'net getlocalsid
6609 <DOMAINNAME>' on the Samba PDC as root. The changetype determines
6610 the format of the generated LDIF output--either create new entries
6611 or modify existing entries.
6613 The old sambaAccount schema may still be used by specifying the
6614 "ldapsam_compat" passdb backend. However, the sambaAccount and
6615 associated attributes have been moved to the historical section of
6616 the schema file and must be uncommented before use if needed.
6617 The 2.2 object class declaration for a sambaAccount has not changed
6618 in the 3.0 samba.schema file.
6620 Other new object classes and their uses include:
6622 * sambaDomain - domain information used to allocate rids
6623 for users and groups as necessary. The attributes are added
6624 in 'ldap suffix' directory entry automatically if
6625 an idmap uid/gid range has been set and the 'ldapsam'
6626 passdb backend has been selected.
6628 * sambaGroupMapping - an object representing the
6629 relationship between a posixGroup and a Windows
6630 group/SID. These entries are stored in the 'ldap
6631 group suffix' and managed by the 'net groupmap' command.
6633 * sambaUnixIdPool - created in the 'ldap idmap suffix' entry
6634 automatically and contains the next available 'idmap uid' and
6637 * sambaIdmapEntry - object storing a mapping between a
6638 SID and a UNIX uid/gid. These objects are created by the
6639 idmap_ldap module as needed.
6641 * sambaSidEntry - object representing a SID alone, as a Structural
6642 class on which to build the sambaIdmapEntry.
6645 New Suffix for Searching
6646 ------------------------
6648 The following new smb.conf parameters have been added to aid in directing
6649 certain LDAP queries when 'passdb backend = ldapsam://...' has been
6652 * ldap suffix - used to search for user and computer accounts
6653 * ldap user suffix - used to store user accounts
6654 * ldap machine suffix - used to store machine trust accounts
6655 * ldap group suffix - location of posixGroup/sambaGroupMapping entries
6656 * ldap idmap suffix - location of sambaIdmapEntry objects
6658 If an 'ldap suffix' is defined, it will be appended to all of the
6659 remaining sub-suffix parameters. In this case, the order of the suffix
6660 listings in smb.conf is important. Always place the 'ldap suffix' first
6663 Due to a limitation in Samba's smb.conf parsing, you should not surround
6664 the DN's with quotation marks.
6670 Samba 3.0 supports an ldap backend for the idmap subsystem. The
6671 following options would inform Samba that the idmap table should be
6672 stored on the directory server onterose in the "ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,
6677 idmap backend = ldap:ldap://onterose/
6678 ldap idmap suffix = ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,dc=org
6679 idmap uid = 40000-50000
6680 idmap gid = 40000-50000
6682 This configuration allows winbind installations on multiple servers to
6683 share a uid/gid number space, thus avoiding the interoperability problems
6684 with NFS that were present in Samba 2.2.
6688 ######################################################################
6689 Trust Relationships and a Samba Domain
6690 ######################################
6692 Samba 3.0.0beta2 is able to utilize winbindd as the means of
6693 allocating uids and gids to trusted users and groups. More
6694 information regarding Samba's support for establishing trust
6695 relationships can be found in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection included
6696 in the docs/ directory of this release.
6698 First create your Samba PDC and ensure that everything is
6699 working correctly before moving on the trusts.
6701 To establish Samba as the trusting domain (named SAMBA) from a Windows NT
6702 4.0 domain named WINDOWS:
6704 1) create the trust account for SAMBA in "User Manager for Domains"
6705 2) connect the trust from the Samba domain using
6706 'net rpc trustdom establish GLASS'
6708 To create a trustlationship with SAMBA as the trusted domain:
6710 1) create the initial trust account for GLASS using
6711 'smbpasswd -a -i GLASS'. You may need to create a UNIX
6712 account for GLASS$ prior to this step (depending on your
6713 local configuration).
6714 2) connect the trust from a WINDOWS DC using "User Manager
6717 Now join winbindd on the Samba PDC to the SAMBA domain using
6718 the normal steps for adding a Samba server to an NT4 domain:
6719 (note that smbd & nmbd must be running at this point)
6721 root# net rpc join -U root
6722 Password: <enter root password from smbpasswd file here>
6724 Start winbindd and test the join with 'wbinfo -t'.
6726 Now test the trust relationship by connecting to the SAMBA DC
6727 (e.g. POGO) as a user from the WINDOWS domain:
6729 $ smbclient //pogo/netlogon -U Administrator -W WINDOWS
6732 Now connect to the WINDOWS DC (e.g. CRYSTAL) as a Samba user:
6734 $ smbclient //crystal/netlogon -U root -W WINDOWS
6737 ######################################################################
6741 Beginning with Samba3.0.0beta3, winbindd has been given new account
6742 manage functionality equivalent to the 'add user script' family of
6743 smb.conf parameters. The idmap design has also been changed to
6744 centralize control of foreign SID lookups and matching to UNIX
6748 Brief Description of Changes
6749 ----------------------------
6751 1) The sid_to_uid() family of functions (smbd/uid.c) have been
6752 reverted to the 2.2.x design. This means that when resolving a
6753 SID to a UID or similar mapping:
6755 a) First consult winbindd
6756 b) perform a local lookup only if winbindd fails to
6757 return a successful answer
6759 There are some variations to this, but these two rules generally
6762 2) All idmap lookups have been moved into winbindd. This means that
6763 a server must run winbindd (and support NSS) in order to achieve
6764 any mappings of SID to dynamically allocated UNIX ids. This was
6765 a conscious design choice.
6767 3) (OBSOLETE) New functions have been added to winbindd to emulate
6768 the 'add user script' family of smbd functions without requiring
6769 that external scripts be defined. This functionality is controlled
6770 by the 'winbind enable local accounts' smb.conf parameter (enabled
6773 However, this account management functionality is only supported
6774 in a local tdb (winbindd_idmap.tdb). If these new UNIX accounts
6775 must be shared among multiple Samba servers (such as a PDC and BDCs),
6776 it will be necessary to define your own 'add user script', et. al.
6777 programs that place the accounts/groups in some form of directory
6778 such as NIS or LDAP. This requirement was deemed beyond the scope
6779 of winbind's account management functions. Solutions for
6780 distributing UNIX system information have been deployed and tested
6781 for many years. We saw no need to reinvent the wheel.
6783 4) A member of a Samba controlled domain running winbindd is now able
6784 to map domain users directly onto existing UNIX accounts while still
6785 automatically creating accounts for trusted users and groups. This
6786 behavior is controlled by the 'winbind trusted domains only' smb.conf
6787 parameter (disabled by default to provide 2.2.x winbind behavior).
6789 5) Group mapping support is wrapped in the local_XX_to_XX() functions
6790 in smbd/uid.c. The reason that group mappings are not included
6791 in winbindd is because the purpose of Samba's group map is to
6792 match any Windows SID with an existing UNIX group. These UNIX
6793 groups can be created by winbindd (see next section), but the
6794 SID<->gid mapping is retreived by smbd, not winbindd.
6800 * security = server running winbindd to allocate accounts on demand
6802 * Samba PDC running winbindd to handle the automatic creation of UNIX
6803 identities for machine trust accounts
6805 * Automtically creating UNIX user and groups when migrating a Windows NT
6806 4.0 PDC to a Samba PDC. Winbindd must be running when executing
6807 'net rpc vampire' for this to work.
