168 Release Notes for Samba 3.2.10
169 April 1, 2009
170 ==============================
173 This is a maintenance release of the Samba 3.2 series.
175 In Samba 3.2.9, there is an issue while migrating passdb.tdb files from older
176 Samba versions (e.g. 3.2.8). That causes panics of smbd child processes until
177 the parent smbd is restarted once after converting the passdb.tdb file. This
178 issue is fixed in Samba 3.2.10.
180 Sorry for the inconveniences!

1427 ======================================================================
1428 == Our Code, Our Bugs, Our Responsibility.
1429 == The Samba Team
1430 ======================================================================
1433 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
1436 ==============================
1437 Release Notes for Samba 3.2.0
1438 July 1, 2008
1439 ==============================
1441 This is the first stable release of Samba 3.2.0.
1443 Please be aware that Samba is now distributed under the version 3
1444 of the new GNU General Public License. You may refer to the COPYING
1445 file that accompanies these release notes for further licensing details.
1447 Major enhancements in Samba 3.2.0 include:
1449 File Serving:
1450 o Use of IDL generated parsing layer for several DCE/RPC
1451 interfaces.
1452 o Removal of the 1024 byte limit on pathnames and 256 byte limit on
1453 filename components to honor the MAX_PATH setting from the host OS.
1454 o Introduction of a registry based configuration system.
1455 o Improved CIFS Unix Extensions support.
1456 o Experimental support for file serving clusters.
1457 o Support for IPv6 in the server, and client tools and libraries.
1458 o Support for storing alternate data streams in xattrs.
1459 o Encrypted SMB transport in client tools and libraries, and server.
1460 o Support for Vista clients authenticating via Kerberos.
1462 Winbind and Active Directory Integration:
1463 o Full support for Windows 2003 cross-forest, transitive trusts
1464 and one-way domain trusts.
1465 o Support for userPrincipalName logons via pam_winbind and NSS
1466 lookups.
1467 o Expansion of nested domain groups via NSS calls.
1468 o Support for Active Directory LDAP Signing policy.
1469 o New LGPL Winbind client library (libwbclient.so).
1470 o Support for establishing interdomain trust relationships with
1471 Windows 2008.
1473 Joining:
1474 o New NetApi library for domain join related queries (libnetapi.so)
1475 and example GTK+ Domain join gui.
1476 o New client and server support for remotely joining and unjoining
1477 Domains.
1478 o Support for joining into Windows 2008 domains.
1480 Users & Groups:
1481 o New ldb backend for local group mapping tables
1482 o Raised level of security defaults for authentication operations.
1483 o New NetApi library for user account related queries.
1487 Now Licensed under the GNU GPLv3
1488 ================================
1490 The Samba Team has adopted the Version 3 of the GNU General Public
1491 License for the 3.2 and later releases. The GPLv3 is the updated
1492 version of the GPLv2 license under which Samba is currently
1493 distributed. It has been updated to improve compatibility with other
1494 licenses and to make it easier to adopt internationally, and is an
1495 improved version of the license to better suit the needs of Free
1496 Software in the 21st Century.
1498 The original announcement is available on-line at
1500 http://news.samba.org/announcements/samba_gplv3/
1503 New Security Defaults for Authentication
1504 ========================================
1506 Support for LanMan passwords is now disabled in both client and server
1507 applications. Additionally, clear text authentication requests are
1508 disabled by default in client utilities such as smbclient and all
1509 libsmbclient based applications. This will affect connection both
1510 to and from hosts running DOS, Windows 9x/ME, and OS/2. Please refer
1511 to the "Changes" section for details on the exact parameters that were
1512 updated.
1515 Registry Configuration Backend
1516 ==============================
1518 Samba is now able to use a registry based configuration backed to
1519 supplement smb.conf settings. This feature may be enabled by setting
1520 "config backend = registry" in the [global] section of smb.conf for a
1521 registry only configuration, or by specifying "include = registry" to
1522 include global options from registry for a mixed setup.
1524 The new parameter "registry shares = yes" in the [global] section of
1525 smb.conf can be used to activate share definitions from registry.
1526 These shares are loaded on demand by the server. Registry shares are
1527 automatically activated by the global registry options above.
1529 The configuration stored in registry can be conveniently managed using
1530 the "net conf" command.
1532 More information may be obtained from the smb.conf(5) and net(8) man
1533 pages.
1536 Removed Features
1537 ================
1539 Both the Python bindings and the libmsrpc shared library have been
1540 removed from the tree due to lack of an official maintainer.
1542 As smbfs is no longer supported in current kernel versions, smbmount has
1543 been removed in this Samba version. Please use cifs (mount.cifs) instead.
1544 See examples/scripts/mount/mount.smbfs as an example for a wrapper which
1545 calls mount.cifs instead of smbmount/mount.smbfs.
1548 Modified API for libsmbclient
1549 ==============================================================================
1551 Maintaining ABI compatibility for libsmbclient has become increasingly
1552 difficult to accomplish, while also keeping the code organization such that it
1553 is easily readable. Towards the goal of maintaining ABI compatibility and
1554 also keeping the code easy to maintain and enhance, the API has been enhanced.
1555 In particular, the fields in the SMBCCTX context structure are no longer
1556 intended to be read/write by the user, and are marked as deprecated. An
1557 application that previously accessed the members of the SMBCCTX context
1558 structure will now encounter warnings if recompiled. This is intentional, to
1559 encourage implementation of the small changes required for the new interface.
1560 The number of changes is expected to be quite small for the vast majority of
1561 applications, and no changes need be made for many applications. The changes
1562 required for KDE (konqueror) to conform to the new interface, for example, are
1563 only four lines in only one file.
1565 Instead of the application manually changing or reading values in the context
1566 structure, there are now setter and getter functions for each configurable
1567 member in that structure. Similarly, the smbc_option_get() and
1568 smbc_option_set() functions are deprecated in favor of the setter/getter
1569 interface. The setters and getters are all documented in libsmbclient.h
1570 under these comment blocks:
1572 Getters and setters for CONFIGURATION
1573 Getters and setters for OPTIONS
1574 Getters and setters for FUNCTIONS
1575 Callable functions for files
1576 Callable functions for directories
1577 Callable functions applicable to both files and directories
1579 Example changes that may be required to eliminate "deprecated" warnings:
1581 /* Set the debug level */
1582 context->debug = 99;
1583 changes to:
1584 smbc_setDebug(context, 99);
1586 /* Specify the authentication callback function */
1587 context->callbacks.auth_fn = auth_smbc_get_data;
1588 changes to:
1589 smbc_setFunctionAuthData(context, auth_smbc_get_data);
1591 /* Specify the new-style authentication callback with context parameter */
1592 smbc_option_set("auth_function", auth_smbc_get_data_with_ctx);
1593 changes to:
1594 smbc_setFunctionAuthDataWithContext(context, auth_smbc_get_data_with_ctx);
1596 /* Set kerberos flags */
1597 context->flags = (SMB_CTX_FLAG_USE_KERBEROS |
1598 SMB_CTX_FLAG_FALLBACK_AFTER_KERBEROS);
1599 changes to:
1600 smbc_setOptionUseKerberos(context, 1);
1601 smbc_setOptionFallbackAfterKerberos(context, 1);
