94 =============================
95 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.8
96 Nov 7, 2004
97 =============================
99 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.8 include:
101 o Compile fixes for HP-UX
102 o Fixes for the printer publishing code used when joined to
103 an AD domain.
104 o Incompatibilities with file system quotas.
105 o Several bugs in the spoolss printing code and print system
106 backends.
107 o Inconsistencies in the username map functionality when
108 configured on domain member servers.
109 o Various compile warnings and errors on various platforms.
110 o Fixes for kerberos interoperability with Windows 200x
111 domains when using DES keys.
112 o Fix for CAN-2004-0930 -- smbd remote DoS vulnerability.
113 o Fix for CAN-2004-0882 -- possible buffer overrun in smbd.
116 New features included in the 3.0.8 release are:
118 o New migration functionality added the the net tool
119 for files/directories, printers, and shares.
120 o New experimental idmap backend for assigning uids/gids
121 directly based on the user/group RID when acting as a
122 member of single domain without any trusts.
123 o Additional printer migration support for XP/2003 platforms.
126 Change in Winbindd Behavior
127 ---------------------------
129 All usernames returned by winbindd are now converted to lower
130 case for better consistency. This means any winbind installation
131 relying on the winbind username will need to rename existing
132 directories and/or files based on the username (%u and %U) to lower
133 case (e.g. mv $name `echo $name | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`). This may
134 include mail spool files, home directories, valid user lines in
135 smb.conf, etc....
138 Change in Username Map
139 ----------------------
141 Previous Samba releases would only support reading the fully qualified
142 username (e.g. DOMAIN\user) from the username map when performing a
143 kerberos login from a client. However, when looking up a map
144 entry for a user authenticated by NTLM[SSP], only the login name would be
145 used for matches. This resulted in inconsistent behavior sometimes
146 even on the same server.
148 Samba 3.0.8 obeys the following rules when applying the username
149 map functionality:
151 * When performing local authentication, the username map is
152 applied to the login name before attempting to authenticate
153 the connection.
154 * When relying upon a external domain controller for validating
155 authentication requests, smbd will apply the username map
156 to the fully qualified username (i.e. DOMAIN\user) only
157 after the user has been successfully authenticated.

700 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.6
701 Aug 19, 2004
702 =============================
704 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.6 include:
706 o Schannel failure in winbindd.
707 o Numerous memory leaks.
708 o Incompatibilities between the 'write list' and 'force user'
709 smb.conf options.
710 o Premature optimization of the open_directory() internal
711 function that broke tools such as the ArcServe backup
712 agent, Macromedia HomeSite, and Robocopy.
713 o Corrupt workgroup names in nmbd's browse.dat.
714 o Sharing violation errors commonly seen when opening
715 when serving Microsoft Office documents from a Samba
716 file share.
717 o Browsing problems caused by an apostrophe (') in the
718 computer's description field.
719 o Problems creating special file types from UNIX CIFS
720 clients and enabling 'unix extensions'.
721 o Fix stalls in smbd caused by inaccessible LDAP servers.
722 o Remove various memory leaks.
723 o Fix issues in the password lockout feature.
725 New features introduced in this release include:
727 O Support symlinks created by CIFS clients which
728 can be followed on the server.
729 o Using a cups server other than localhost.
730 o Maintaining the service principal entry in the system
731 keytab for integration with other kerberized services.
732 Please refer to the 'use kerberos keytab' entry in
733 smb.conf(5). When using the heimdal kerberos libraries,
734 you must also specify the following in /etc/krb5.conf:
735 [libdefaults]
736 default_keytab_name = FILE:/etc/krb5.keytab
737 o Support for maintaining individual printer names
738 stored separately from the printer's sharename.
739 o Support for maintaining user password history.
740 o Support for honoring the logon times for user in a
741 Samba domain.
743 --------------------------------------------
744 unix extensions = yes (default) and symlinks
745 --------------------------------------------
747 Beginning with Samba 3.0.6pre1 (formerly known as 3.0.5pre1),
748 clients supporting the UNIX extensions to the CIFS protocol
749 can create symlinks to absolute paths which will be **followed**
750 by the server. This functionality has been requested in order
751 to correctly support certain applications when the user's home
752 directory is mounted using some type of CIFS client (e.g. the
753 cifsvfs in the Linux 2.6 kernel).
755 If this behavior is not acceptable for your production environment
756 you can set 'wide links = no' in the specific share declaration in
757 the server's smb.conf. Be aware that disabling wide link support
758 out of a share in Samba may impact the server's performance due
759 to the fact that smbd will now have to check each path additional
760 times before traversing it.
762 ------------------------
763 Password History Support
764 ------------------------
766 The new password history feature allows smbd to check the new
767 password in password change requests against a list of the user's
768 previous passwords. The number of previous passwords to save can
769 be set using pdbedit (4 in this example):
771 root# pdbedit -P "password history" -C 4
773 When using the ldapsam passdb backend, it is vital to secure the
774 following attributes from access by non-administrative users:
776 * sambaNTPassword
777 * sambaLMPassword
778 * sambaPasswordHistory
780 You should refer to your directory server's documentation on how
781 to implement this restriction.

1024 the NT security editor.
1025 * Fix crash bug caused by trying to Base64 encode a NULL string.
1026 * Fix DOS error code bug in reply_chkpath().

1029 field with individual bits what to retrieve.
1030 * Implement 'net rpc group rename' -- rename domain groups.
1031 * Implement the 'cups server' option. This makes it possible
1032 to have virtual smbd's connect to different cups daemons.

1036 return.
1037 * Make sure that the clients are given back the IP address to
1038 which they connected in the case of a multi-homed host. Only
1039 affects strings the spoolss printing replies.
1040 * Fix the bad password lockout. This has not worked as pdb_ldap.c
1041 did not ask for the modifyTimestamp attribute, so it could
1042 not find it. Try not to regress by not putting that attrib
1043 in the main list but append it manually for the relevant searches.

1056 LDAP servers for failover purposes.
1057 * Revert code in smbd to remove a tdb when it has become
1058 corrupted.

1200 July 20, 2004
1201 =============================
1203 Please note that Samba 3.0.5 is identical to Samba 3.0.4 with
1204 the exception of correcting the two security issues outlined
1205 below.
1207 ######################## SECURITY RELEASE ########################
1209 Summary: Multiple Potential Buffer Overruns in Samba 3.0.x
1210 CVE ID: CAN-2004-0600, CAN-2004-0686
1211 (http://cve.mitre.org/)
1214 This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is the version
1215 that production Samba servers should be running for all current
1216 bug-fixes.
1218 It has been confirmed that versions of Samba 3 prior to v3.0.4
1219 are vulnerable to two potential buffer overruns. The individual
1220 details are given below.
1222 -------------
1223 CAN-2004-0600
1224 -------------
1226 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.2 and later
1228 The internal routine used by the Samba Web Administration
1229 Tool (SWAT v3.0.2 and later) to decode the base64 data
1230 during HTTP basic authentication is subject to a buffer
1231 overrun caused by an invalid base64 character. It is
1232 recommended that all Samba v3.0.2 or later installations
1233 running SWAT either (a) upgrade to v3.0.5, or (b) disable
1234 the swat administration service as a temporary workaround.
1236 This same code is used internally to decode the
1237 sambaMungedDial attribute value when using the ldapsam
1238 passdb backend. While we do not believe that the base64
1239 decoding routines used by the ldapsam passdb backend can
1240 be exploited, sites using an LDAP directory service with
1241 Samba are strongly encouraged to verify that the DIT only
1242 allows write access to sambaSamAccount attributes by a
1243 sufficiently authorized user.
1245 The Samba Team would like to heartily thank Evgeny Demidov
1246 for analyzing and reporting this bug.
1248 -------------
1249 CAN-2004-0686
1250 -------------
1252 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.0 and later
1254 A buffer overrun has been located in the code used to support
1255 the 'mangling method = hash' smb.conf option. Please be aware
1256 that the default setting for this parameter is 'mangling method
1257 = hash2' and therefore not vulnerable.
1259 Affected Samba 3 installations can avoid this possible security
1260 bug by using the default hash2 mangling method. Server
1261 installations requiring the hash mangling method are encouraged
1262 to upgrade to Samba 3.0.5.

1837 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2a
1838 February 13, 2004
1839 ==============================
1841 Samba 3.0.2a is a minor patch release for the 3.0.2 code base
1842 to address, in particular, a problem when using pdbedit to
1843 sanitize (--force-initialized-passwords) Samba's tdbsam
1844 backend. This is the latest stable release of Samba. This
1845 is the version that all production Samba servers should be
1846 running for all current bug-fixes.
1848 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
1850 Beginning with Samba 3.0.2, passwords for accounts with a last
1851 change time (LCT-XXX in smbpasswd, sambaPwdLastSet attribute in
1852 ldapsam, etc...) of zero (0) will be regarded as uninitialized
1853 strings. This will cause authentication to fail for such
1854 accounts. If you have valid passwords that meet this criteria,
1855 you must update the last change time to a non-zero value. If you
1856 do not, then 'pdbedit --force-initialized-passwords' will disable
1857 these accounts and reset the password hashes to a string of X's.
1859 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
1862 Changes since 3.0.2

1911 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2
1912 February 9, 2004
1913 =============================
1915 It has been confirmed that previous versions of Samba 3.0 are
1916 susceptible to a password initialization bug that could grant an
1917 attacker unauthorized access to a user account created by the
1918 mksmbpasswd.sh shell script.
1920 The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
1921 has assigned the name CAN-2004-0082 to this issue.
1923 Samba administrators not wishing to upgrade to the current
1924 version should download the 3.0.2 release, build the pdbedit
1925 tool, and run
1927 root# pdbedit-3.0.2 --force-initialized-passwords
1929 This will disable all accounts not possessing a valid password
1930 (e.g. the password field has been set a string of X's).
1932 Samba servers running 3.0.2 are not vulnerable to this bug
1933 regardless of whether or not pdbedit has been used to sanitize
1934 the passdb backend.
1936 Some of the more visible bugs in 3.0.1 addressed in the 3.0.2
1937 release include:
1939 o Joining a Samba domain from Pre-SP2 Windows 2000 clients.
1940 o Logging onto a Samba domain from Windows XP clients.
1941 o Problems with the %U and %u smb.conf variables in relation to
1942 Windows 9x/ME clients.
1943 o Kerberos failures due to an invalid in memory keytab detection
1944 test.
1945 o Updates to the ntlm_auth tool.
1946 o Fixes for various SMB signing errors.
1947 o Better separation of WINS and DNS queries for domain controllers.
1948 o Issues with nss_winbind FreeBSD and Solaris.
1949 o Several crash bugs in smbd and winbindd.
1950 o Output formatting fixes for smbclient for better compatibility
1951 with scripts based on the 2.2 version.

2339 o Change the \n after the password prompt to go to tty instead
2340 of stdout (bug 668).
2341 o Stop net -P from prompting for machine account password (bug 451).
2342 o Change in behavior to Not only change the effective uid but also
2343 the real uid when becoming unprivileged.
2344 o Cope with Exchange 5.5 cleartext pop password auth.
2345 o New files for support of initshutdown pipe. Win2k doesn't
2346 respond properly to all requests on the winreg pipe, so we need
2347 to handle this new pipe (bug 534).
2348 o Added more va_copy() checks in configure.in.
2349 o Include fixes for libsmbclient build problems.
2350 o Missing UNIX -> DOS codepage conversion in lanman.c.
2351 o Allow DFMS-S filenames can now have arbitrary case (bug 667).
2352 o Parameterize the listen backlog in smbd and make it larger by
2353 default. A backlog of 5 is way too small these days.
2354 o Check for an invalid fid before dereferencing the fsp pointer
2355 (bug 696).
2356 o Remove invalid memory frees and return codes in pdb_ldap.c.
2357 o Prompt for password when invoking --set-auth-user and no
2358 password is given.
2359 o Bind the nmbd sending socket to the 'socket address'.
2360 o Re-order link command for smbd, rpcclient and smbpasswd to ensure
2361 $LDFLAGS occurs before any library specification (bug 661).
2362 o Fix large number of printf() calls for 64-bit size_t.
2363 o Fix AC_CHECK_MEMBER so that SLES8 does correctly finds the
2364 keyblock in the krb5 structs.
2365 o Remove #include <compat.h> in hopes to avoid problems with
2366 apache header files.
2367 o Correct winbindd build problems on HP-UX 11.
2368 o Lowercase netgroups lookups (bug 703).
2369 o Use the actual size of the buffer in strftime instead of a made
2370 up value which just happens to be less than sizeof(fstring).
2371 (bug 713).
2372 o Add ldaplibs to pdbedit link line (bug 651).
2373 o Fix crash bug in smbclient completion (bug 659).
2374 o Fix packet length for browse list reply (bug 771).
2375 o Fix coredump in cli_get_backup_list().
2376 o Make sure that we expand %N (bug 612).
2377 o Allow rpcclient adddriver command to specify printer driver
2378 version (bug 514).
2379 o Compile tdbdump by default.
2380 o Apply patches to fix iconv detection for FreeBSD.
2381 o Do not allow the 'guest account' to be added to a passdb backend
2382 using smbpasswd or pdbedit (bug 624).
2383 o Save LDFLAGS during iconv detection (bug 57).
2384 o Run krb5 logins through the username map if the winbindd
2385 lookup fails (bug 698).
2386 o Add const for lp_set_name_resolve_order() to avoid compiler
2387 warnings (bug 471).
2388 o Add support for the %i macro in smb.conf to stand in for the for
2389 the local IP address to which a client connected.
2390 o Allow winbindd to match local accounts to domain SID when
2391 'winbind trusted domains only = yes' (bug 680).
2392 o Remove code in idmap_ldap that searches the user suffix and group
2393 suffix. It's not needed and provides inconsistent functionality
2394 from the tdb backend.
2395 o Patch to handle munged dial string for Windows 2000 TSE.
2396 Thanks to Gaz de France, Direction de la Recherche, Service
2397 Informatique Métier for their supporting this work by Aurelien
2398 Degrémont <adegremont@idealx.com>.
2399 o Correct the "smbldap_open: cannot access when not root error"
2400 messages when looking up group information (bug 281).
2401 o Skip over the winbind separator when looking up a user.
2402 This fixes the bug that prevented local users from
2403 matching an AD user when not running winbindd (bug 698).
2404 o Fix a problem with configure on *BSD systems. Make sure
2405 we add -liconv etc to LDFLAGS.
2406 o Fix core dump bug when "security = server" and the authentication
2407 server goes away.
2408 o Correct crash bug due to an empty munged dial string.
2409 o Show files locked by a specific user (smbstatus -u 'user')
2410 (bug 590).
2411 o Fix bug preventing print jobs from display in the queue
2412 monitor used by Windows NT and later clients (bug 660).
2413 o Fix several reported problems with point-n-print from
2414 Windows 2000/XP clients due to a bug in the EnumPrinterDataEx()
2415 reply (bug 338, 527 & 643).
2416 o Fix a handful of potential memory leaks in the LDAP code used
2417 by ldapsam[_compat] and the LDAP idmap backend.
2418 o Fix for pdbedit error code returns (bug 763).
2419 o Make sure we only enumerate group mapping entries (not
2420 /etc/group) even when doing local aliases.
2421 o Relax check on the pipe name in a dce/rpc bind response to work
2422 around issues with establishing trusts to a Windows 2003 domain.
2423 o Ensure we mangle names ending in '.' in hash2 mangling method.
2424 o Correct parsing issues with munged dial string.
2425 o Fix bugs in quota support for XFS.
2426 o Add a cleaner method for applications that need to provide
2427 name->SID mappings to do this via NSS rather than having to
2428 know the winbindd pipe protocol.
2429 o Adds a variant of the winbindd_getgroups() call called
2430 winbindd_getusersids() that provides direct SID->SIDs listing of
2431 a users supplementary groups. This is enough to allow non-Samba
2432 applications to do ACL checking.
2433 o Make sure we don't append the 'ldap suffix' when writing out the
2434 'ldap XXX suffix' values in SWAT (bug 328).
2435 o Fix renames across file systems.
2436 o Ensure that items in a list of strings containing whitespace are
2437 written out surrounded by single quotes. This means that both
2438 double and single quotes are now used to surround strings in
2439 smb.conf (bug 481).
2440 o Enable SWAT to correctly determine if winbindd is running (bug
2441 398).
2442 o Include WWW-Authenticate field in 401 response for bad auth
2443 attempt (bug 629).
2444 o Add support for NTLM2 (NTLMv2 session security).
2445 o Add support for variable-length session keys.
2446 o More privilege fixes for group enumeration in LDAP (bug 281).

2448 using CUPS (bug 467).
2449 o Fix various SMB signing bugs.
2450 o Fix ACL propagation on a DFS root (bug 263).
2451 o Disable NTLM2 for RPC pipes.
2452 o Allow the client to specify the NTLM2 flags got NTLMSSP
2453 authentication.
2454 o Change the name of the job passed off to cups from "Test Page"
2455 to "smbprn.00000033 Test Page" so that we can get the smb
2456 jobid back. This allow users to delete jobs with cups printing
2457 backend (partial work on bug 770).
2458 o Fix build of winbindd with static pdb modules.
2459 o Retrieve the correct ACL group bits if the file has an ACL
2460 (bug 802).
2461 o Implement "net rpc group members": Get members of a domain group
2462 in human-readable format.
2463 o Add MacOSX (Darwin) specific charset module code.
2464 o Use samr_dispinfo(level == 1) for enumerating domain users so we
2465 can include the full name in gecos field (bug 587).
2466 o Add support for winbind's NSS library on FeeeBSD 5.1 (bug 797).
2467 o Implement 'net rpc group list [global|local|builtin]*' for a
2468 select listing of the respective user databases.
2469 o Don't automatically set NT status code flag unless client tells
2470 us it can cope.
2471 o Add 'net status [sessions|shares] [parseable]'.
2472 o Don't mistake pre-existing UNIX jobs for smb jobs (remainder of
2473 bug 770).
2474 o Add 'Replicator' and 'RAS Servers' to list of builtin SIDs
2475 (bug 608).
2476 o Fix inverted logic in hosts allow/deny checks caused by
2477 s/strcmp/strequal/ (bug 846).
2478 o Implement correct version SamrRemoveSidForeignDomain() (bug 252).
2479 o Fix typo in 'hash' mangling algorithm.
2480 o Support munged dial for ldapsam (bug 800).
2481 o Fix process_incoming_data() to return the number of bytes handled
2482 this call whether we have a complete PDU or not; fixes bug
2483 with multiple PDU request rpc's broken over SMBwriteX calls
2484 each.
2485 o Fix incorrect smb flags2 for connections to pre-NT servers
2486 (causes smbclient to fail to OS2 for example) (bug 821).
2487 o Update version string in smbldap-tools Makefile to 0.8.2.
2488 o Correct a problem with "net rpc vampire" mis-parsing the
2489 alias member info reply.
2490 o Ensure the ${libdir} is created by the installclientlib script.
2491 o Fix detection of Windows 2003 client architecture in the smb.conf
2492 %a variable.
2493 o Ensure that smbd calls the add user script for a missing UNIX
2494 user on kerberos auth call (bug 445).
2495 o Fix bugs in hosts allow/deny when using a mismatched
2496 network/netmask pair.
2497 o Protect alloc_sub_basic() from crashing when the source string
2498 is NULL (partial work on bug 687).
2499 o Fix spinlocks on IRIX.
2500 o Corrected some bad destination paths when running "configure
2501 --with-fhs".
2502 o Add packaging files for Fedora Core 1.
2503 o Correct bug in SWAT install script for non-english languages.
2504 o Support character set ISO-8859-1 internally (bug 558).
2505 o Fixed more LDAP access errors when looking up group mappings
2506 (bug 281).

2508 resolution to fail on local files on on domain members
2509 (bug 875).
2510 o Fix uninitialized variable in passdb.c.
2511 o Fix formal parameter type in get_static() in nsswitch/wins.c.

2523 The original 3.0.0 release notes follow
2524 =======================================
2525 WHATS NEW IN Samba 3.0.0
2526 September 24, 2003
2527 =======================================
2530 Major new features:
2531 -------------------
2533 1) Active Directory support. Samba 3.0 is now able to
2534 join a ADS realm as a member server and authenticate
2535 users using LDAP/Kerberos.
2537 2) Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate UNICODE on the wire
2538 and internally there is now a much better infrastructure for
2539 multi-byte and UNICODE character sets.
2541 3) New authentication system. The internal authentication system
2542 has been almost completely rewritten. Most of the changes are
2543 internal, but the new auth system is also very configurable.
2545 4) New default filename mangling system.
2547 5) A new "net" command has been added. It is somewhat similar to
2548 the "net" command in windows. Eventually we plan to replace
2549 numerous other utilities (such as smbpasswd) with subcommands
2550 in "net".
2552 6) Samba now negotiates NT-style status32 codes on the wire. This
2553 improves error handling a lot.
2555 7) Better Windows 2000/XP/2003 printing support including publishing
2556 printer attributes in active directory.
2558 8) New loadable module support for passdb backends and character
2559 sets.
2561 9) New default dual-daemon winbindd support for better performance.
2563 10) Support for migrating from a Windows NT 4.0 domain to a Samba
2564 domain and maintaining user, group and domain SIDs.
2566 11) Support for establishing trust relationships with Windows NT 4.0
2567 domain controllers.
2569 12) Initial support for a distributed Winbind architecture using
2570 an LDAP directory for storing SID to uid/gid mappings.
2572 13) Major updates to the Samba documentation tree.
2574 14) Full support for client and server SMB signing to ensure
2575 compatibility with default Windows 2003 security settings.
2577 15) Improvement of ACL mapping features based on code donated by
2578 Andreas Grünbacher.
2581 Plus lots of other improvements!
2584 Additional Documentation
2585 ------------------------
2587 Please refer to Samba documentation tree (included in the docs/
2588 subdirectory) for extensive explanations of installing, configuring
2589 and maintaining Samba 3.0 servers and clients. It is advised to
2590 begin with the Samba-HOWTO-Collection for overviews and specific
2591 tasks (the current book is up to approximately 400 pages) and to
2592 refer to the various man pages for information on individual options.
2594 We are very glad to be able to include the second edition of
2595 "Using Samba" by Jay Ts, Robert Eckstein, and David Collier-Brown
2596 (O'Reilly & Associates) in this release. The book is available
2597 on-line at http://samba.org/samba/docs/ and is included with
2598 the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). Thanks to the authors and
2599 publisher for making "Using Samba" under the GNU Free Documentation
2600 License.
2603 ######################################################################
2604 Upgrading from a previous Samba 3.0 beta
2605 ########################################
2607 Beginning with Samba 3.0.0beta3, the RID allocation functions
2608 have been moved into winbindd. Previously these were handled
2609 by each passdb backend. This means that winbindd must be running
2610 to automatically allocate RIDs for users and/or groups. Otherwise,
2611 smbd will use the 2.2 algorithm for generating new RIDs.
2613 If you are using 'passdb backend = tdbsam' with a previous Samba
2614 3.0 beta release (or possibly alpha), it may be necessary to
2615 move the RID_COUNTER entry from /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
2616 to winbindd_idmap.tdb. To do this:
2618 1) Ensure that winbindd_idmap.tdb exists (launch winbindd at least
2619 once)
2620 2) build tdbtool by executing 'make tdbtool' in the source/tdb/
2621 directory
2622 3) run: (note that 'tdb>' is the tool's prompt for input)
2624 root# ./tdbtool /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
2625 tdb> show RID_COUNTER
2626 key 12 bytes
2627 RID_COUNTER
2628 data 4 bytes
2629 [000] 0A 52 00 00 .R.
2631 tdb> move RID_COUNTER /usr/local/samba/var/locks/winbindd_idmap.tdb
2632 ....
2633 record moved
2635 If you are using 'passdb backend = ldapsam', it will be necessary to
2636 store idmap entries in the LDAP directory as well (i.e. idmap backend
2637 = ldap). Refer to the 'net idmap' command for more information on
2638 migrating SID<->UNIX id mappings from one backend to another.
2640 If the RID_COUNTER record does not exist, then these instructions are
2641 unneccessary and the new RID_COUNTER record will be correctly generated
2642 if needed.

2825 from 3.0 to 2.2 is an unsupported path.
2827 Name Description Backup?
2828 ---- ----------- -------
2829 account_policy User policy settings yes
2830 gencache Generic caching db no
2831 group_mapping Mapping table from Windows yes
2832 groups/SID to unix groups
2833 winbindd_idmap ID map table from SIDS to UNIX yes
2834 uids/gids.
2835 namecache Name resolution cache entries no
2836 netsamlogon_cache Cache of NET_USER_INFO_3 structure no
2837 returned as part of a successful
2838 net_sam_logon request
2839 printing/*.tdb Cached output from 'lpq no
2840 command' created on a per print
2841 service basis
2842 registry Read-only samba registry skeleton no
2843 that provides support for exporting
2844 various db tables via the winreg RPCs
2847 Changes in Behavior
2848 -------------------
2850 The following issues are known changes in behavior between Samba 2.2 and
2851 Samba 3.0 that may affect certain installations of Samba.
2853 1) When operating as a member of a Windows domain, Samba 2.2 would
2854 map any users authenticated by the remote DC to the 'guest account'
2855 if a uid could not be obtained via the getpwnam() call. Samba 3.0
2856 rejects the connection as NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. There is no
2857 current work around to re-establish the 2.2 behavior.
2859 2) When adding machines to a Samba 2.2 controlled domain, the
2860 'add user script' was used to create the UNIX identity of the
2861 machine trust account. Samba 3.0 introduces a new 'add machine
2862 script' that must be specified for this purpose. Samba 3.0 will
2863 not fall back to using the 'add user script' in the absence of
2864 an 'add machine script'
2867 ######################################################################
2868 Passdb Backends and Authentication
2869 ##################################
2871 There have been a few new changes that Samba administrators should be
2872 aware of when moving to Samba 3.0.
2874 1) encrypted passwords have been enabled by default in order to
2875 inter-operate better with out-of-the-box Windows client
2876 installations. This does mean that either (a) a samba account
2877 must be created for each user, or (b) 'encrypt passwords = no'
2878 must be explicitly defined in smb.conf.
2880 2) Inclusion of new 'security = ads' option for integration
2881 with an Active Directory domain using the native Windows
2882 Kerberos 5 and LDAP protocols.
2884 MIT kerberos 1.3.1 supports the ARCFOUR-HMAC-MD5 encryption
2885 type which is neccessary for servers on which the
2886 administrator password has not been changed, or kerberos-enabled
2887 SMB connections to servers that require Kerberos SMB signing.
2888 Besides this one difference, either MIT or Heimdal Kerberos
2889 distributions are usable by Samba 3.0.
2892 Samba 3.0 also includes the possibility of setting up chains
2893 of authentication methods (auth methods) and account storage
2894 backends (passdb backend). Please refer to the smb.conf(5)
2895 man page for details. While both parameters assume sane default
2896 values, it is likely that you will need to understand what the
2897 values actually mean in order to ensure Samba operates correctly.
2899 The recommended passdb backends at this time are
2901 * smbpasswd - 2.2 compatible flat file format
2902 * tdbsam - attribute rich database intended as an smbpasswd
2903 replacement for stand alone servers
2904 * ldapsam - attribute rich account storage and retrieval
2905 backend utilizing an LDAP directory.
2906 * ldapsam_compat - a 2.2 backward compatible LDAP account
2907 backend
2909 Certain functions of the smbpasswd(8) tool have been split between the
2910 new smbpasswd(8) utility, the net(8) tool, and the new pdbedit(8)
2911 utility. See the respective man pages for details.

2915 LDAP
2916 ####
2918 This section outlines the new features affecting Samba / LDAP
2919 integration.
2921 New Schema
2922 ----------
2924 A new object class (sambaSamAccount) has been introduced to replace
2925 the old sambaAccount. This change aids us in the renaming of
2926 attributes to prevent clashes with attributes from other vendors.
2927 There is a conversion script (examples/LDAP/convertSambaAccount) to
2928 modify and LDIF file to the new schema.
2930 Example:
2932 $ ldapsearch .... -b "ou=people,dc=..." > sambaAcct.ldif
2933 $ convertSambaAccount --sid=<Domain SID> \
2934 --input=sambaAcct.ldif --output=sambaSamAcct.ldif \
2935 --changetype=[modify|add]
2937 The <DOM SID> can be obtained by running 'net getlocalsid
2938 <DOMAINNAME>' on the Samba PDC as root. The changetype determines
2939 the format of the generated LDIF output--either create new entries
2940 or modify existing entries.
2942 The old sambaAccount schema may still be used by specifying the
2943 "ldapsam_compat" passdb backend. However, the sambaAccount and
2944 associated attributes have been moved to the historical section of
2945 the schema file and must be uncommented before use if needed.
2946 The 2.2 object class declaration for a sambaAccount has not changed
2947 in the 3.0 samba.schema file.
2949 Other new object classes and their uses include:
2951 * sambaDomain - domain information used to allocate rids
2952 for users and groups as necessary. The attributes are added
2953 in 'ldap suffix' directory entry automatically if
2954 an idmap uid/gid range has been set and the 'ldapsam'
2955 passdb backend has been selected.
2957 * sambaGroupMapping - an object representing the
2958 relationship between a posixGroup and a Windows
2959 group/SID. These entries are stored in the 'ldap
2960 group suffix' and managed by the 'net groupmap' command.
2962 * sambaUnixIdPool - created in the 'ldap idmap suffix' entry
2963 automatically and contains the next available 'idmap uid' and
2964 'idmap gid'
2966 * sambaIdmapEntry - object storing a mapping between a
2967 SID and a UNIX uid/gid. These objects are created by the
2968 idmap_ldap module as needed.
2970 * sambaSidEntry - object representing a SID alone, as a Structural
2971 class on which to build the sambaIdmapEntry.
2974 New Suffix for Searching
2975 ------------------------
2977 The following new smb.conf parameters have been added to aid in directing
2978 certain LDAP queries when 'passdb backend = ldapsam://...' has been
2979 specified.
2981 * ldap suffix - used to search for user and computer accounts
2982 * ldap user suffix - used to store user accounts
2983 * ldap machine suffix - used to store machine trust accounts
2984 * ldap group suffix - location of posixGroup/sambaGroupMapping entries
2985 * ldap idmap suffix - location of sambaIdmapEntry objects
2987 If an 'ldap suffix' is defined, it will be appended to all of the
2988 remaining sub-suffix parameters. In this case, the order of the suffix
2989 listings in smb.conf is important. Always place the 'ldap suffix' first
2990 in the list.
2992 Due to a limitation in Samba's smb.conf parsing, you should not surround
2993 the DN's with quotation marks.
2996 IdMap LDAP support
2997 ------------------
2999 Samba 3.0 supports an ldap backend for the idmap subsystem. The
3000 following options would inform Samba that the idmap table should be
3001 stored on the directory server onterose in the "ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,
3002 dc=org" partition.
3004 [global]
3005 ...
3006 idmap backend = ldap:ldap://onterose/
3007 ldap idmap suffix = ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,dc=org
3008 idmap uid = 40000-50000
3009 idmap gid = 40000-50000
3011 This configuration allows winbind installations on multiple servers to
3012 share a uid/gid number space, thus avoiding the interoperability problems
3013 with NFS that were present in Samba 2.2.
3017 ######################################################################
3018 Trust Relationships and a Samba Domain
3019 ######################################
3021 Samba 3.0.0beta2 is able to utilize winbindd as the means of
3022 allocating uids and gids to trusted users and groups. More
3023 information regarding Samba's support for establishing trust
3024 relationships can be found in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection included
3025 in the docs/ directory of this release.
3027 First create your Samba PDC and ensure that everything is
3028 working correctly before moving on the trusts.
3030 To establish Samba as the trusting domain (named SAMBA) from a Windows NT
3031 4.0 domain named WINDOWS:
3033 1) create the trust account for SAMBA in "User Manager for Domains"
3034 2) connect the trust from the Samba domain using
3035 'net rpc trustdom establish GLASS'
3037 To create a trustlationship with SAMBA as the trusted domain:
3039 1) create the initial trust account for GLASS using
3040 'smbpasswd -a -i GLASS'. You may need to create a UNIX
3041 account for GLASS$ prior to this step (depending on your
3042 local configuration).
3043 2) connect the trust from a WINDOWS DC using "User Manager
3044 for Domains"
3046 Now join winbindd on the Samba PDC to the SAMBA domain using
3047 the normal steps for adding a Samba server to an NT4 domain:
3048 (note that smbd & nmbd must be running at this point)
3050 root# net rpc join -U root
3051 Password: <enter root password from smbpasswd file here>
3053 Start winbindd and test the join with 'wbinfo -t'.
3055 Now test the trust relationship by connecting to the SAMBA DC
3056 (e.g. POGO) as a user from the WINDOWS domain:
3058 $ smbclient //pogo/netlogon -U Administrator -W WINDOWS
3059 Password:
3061 Now connect to the WINDOWS DC (e.g. CRYSTAL) as a Samba user:
3063 $ smbclient //crystal/netlogon -U root -W WINDOWS
3064 Password:

3067 Changes in Winbind
3068 ##################
3070 Beginning with Samba3.0.0beta3, winbindd has been given new account
3071 manage functionality equivalent to the 'add user script' family of
3072 smb.conf parameters. The idmap design has also been changed to
3073 centralize control of foreign SID lookups and matching to UNIX
3074 uids and gids.
3077 Brief Description of Changes
3078 ----------------------------
3080 1) The sid_to_uid() family of functions (smbd/uid.c) have been
3081 reverted to the 2.2.x design. This means that when resolving a
3082 SID to a UID or similar mapping:
3084 a) First consult winbindd
3085 b) perform a local lookup only if winbindd fails to
3086 return a successful answer
3088 There are some variations to this, but these two rules generally
3089 apply.
3091 2) All idmap lookups have been moved into winbindd. This means that
3092 a server must run winbindd (and support NSS) in order to achieve
3093 any mappings of SID to dynamically allocated UNIX ids. This was
3094 a conscious design choice.
3096 3) New functions have been added to winbindd to emulate the 'add user
3097 script' family of smbd functions without requiring that external
3098 scripts be defined. This functionality is controlled by the 'winbind
3099 enable local accounts' smb.conf parameter (enabled by default).
3101 However, this account management functionality is only supported
3102 in a local tdb (winbindd_idmap.tdb). If these new UNIX accounts
3103 must be shared among multiple Samba servers (such as a PDC and BDCs),
3104 it will be necessary to define your own 'add user script', et. al.
3105 programs that place the accounts/groups in some form of directory
3106 such as NIS or LDAP. This requirement was deemed beyond the scope
3107 of winbind's account management functions. Solutions for
3108 distributing UNIX system information have been deployed and tested
3109 for many years. We saw no need to reinvent the wheel.
3111 4) A member of a Samba controlled domain running winbindd is now able
3112 to map domain users directly onto existing UNIX accounts while still
3113 automatically creating accounts for trusted users and groups. This
3114 behavior is controlled by the 'winbind trusted domains only' smb.conf
3115 parameter (disabled by default to provide 2.2.x winbind behavior).
3117 5) Group mapping support is wrapped in the local_XX_to_XX() functions
3118 in smbd/uid.c. The reason that group mappings are not included
3119 in winbindd is because the purpose of Samba's group map is to
3120 match any Windows SID with an existing UNIX group. These UNIX
3121 groups can be created by winbindd (see next section), but the
3122 SID<->gid mapping is retreived by smbd, not winbindd.
3125 Examples
3126 --------
3128 * security = server running winbindd to allocate accounts on demand
3130 * Samba PDC running winbindd to handle the automatic creation of UNIX
3131 identities for machine trust accounts
3133 * Automtically creating UNIX user and groups when migrating a Windows NT
3134 4.0 PDC to a Samba PDC. Winbindd must be running when executing
3135 'net rpc vampire' for this to work.
