- WHATS NEW IN Samba 3.0 alpha21
- 26th November 2002
- ===============================
-
-This is a pre-release of Samba 3.0. This is NOT a stable release.
-Use at your own risk.
-
-The purpose of this alpha release is to get wider testing of the major
-new pieces of code in the current Samba 3.0 development tree. We have
-officially ceased development on the 2.2.x release of Samba and are
-concentrating on Samba 3.0. To reduce the time before the final Samba 3.0
-release we need as many people as possible to start testing these alpha
-releases, and hopefully giving us some high quality feedback on what needs
-fixing.
-
-Note that Samba 3.0 is not feature complete yet. There is a more
-coding we have planned, but unless we get what we have done already more
-widely tested we will have a hard time doing a stable release in a
-reasonable time frame.

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

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

+4) New default filename mangling system.
-- new "net" command. A new "net" command has been added. It is
- somewhat similar to the "net" command in windows. Eventually we plan
- to replace a bunch of other utilities (such as smbpasswd) with

+Additional Documentation
+------------------------
+
+Please refer to Samba documentation tree (included in the docs/
+subdirectory) for extensive explanations of installing, configuring
+and maintaining Samba 3.0 servers and clients. It is advised to
+begin with the Samba-HOWTO-Collection for overviews and specific
+tasks (the current book is up to approximately 400 pages) and to
+refer to the various man pages for information on individual options.
+
+We are very glad to be able to include the second edition of
+"Using Samba" by Jay Ts, Robert Eckstein, and David Collier-Brown
+(O'Reilly & Associates) in this release. The book is available
+on-line at http://samba.org/samba/docs/ and is included with

+######################################################################
+Upgrading from a previous Samba 3.0 beta
+########################################
+
+Beginning with Samba 3.0.0beta3, the RID allocation functions
+have been moved into winbindd. Previously these were handled
+by each passdb backend. This means that winbindd must be running
+to automatically allocate RIDs for users and/or groups. Otherwise,
+smbd will use the 2.2 algorithm for generating new RIDs.
+
+If you are using 'passdb backend = tdbsam' with a previous Samba
+3.0 beta release (or possibly alpha), it may be necessary to
+move the RID_COUNTER entry from /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
+to winbindd_idmap.tdb. To do this:
+
+1) Ensure that winbindd_idmap.tdb exists (launch winbindd at least
+ once)
+2) build tdbtool by executing 'make tdbtool' in the source/tdb/
+ directory
+3) run: (note that 'tdb>' is the tool's prompt for input)
+
+ root# ./tdbtool /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
+ tdb> show RID_COUNTER
+ key 12 bytes
+ RID_COUNTER
+ data 4 bytes
+ [000] 0A 52 00 00 .R.
+
+ tdb> move RID_COUNTER /usr/local/samba/var/locks/winbindd_idmap.tdb
+ ....
+ record moved
+
+If you are using 'passdb backend = ldapsam', it will be necessary to
+store idmap entries in the LDAP directory as well (i.e. idmap backend
+= ldap). Refer to the 'net idmap' command for more information on
+migrating SID<->UNIX id mappings from one backend to another.
+
+If the RID_COUNTER record does not exist, then these instructions are
+unneccessary and the new RID_COUNTER record will be correctly generated
+if needed.

+The following issues are known changes in behavior between Samba 2.2 and
+Samba 3.0 that may affect certain installations of Samba.
+
+ 1) When operating as a member of a Windows domain, Samba 2.2 would
+ map any users authenticated by the remote DC to the 'guest account'
+ if a uid could not be obtained via the getpwnam() call. Samba 3.0
+ rejects the connection as NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. There is no
+ current work around to re-establish the 2.2 behavior.
+
+ 2) When adding machines to a Samba 2.2 controlled domain, the
+ 'add user script' was used to create the UNIX identity of the
+ machine trust account. Samba 3.0 introduces a new 'add machine
+ script' that must be specified for this purpose. Samba 3.0 will
+ not fall back to using the 'add user script' in the absence of
+ an 'add machine script'
+
+
+######################################################################
+Passdb Backends and Authentication
+##################################
+
+There have been a few new changes that Samba administrators should be
+aware of when moving to Samba 3.0.
+
+ 1) encrypted passwords have been enabled by default in order to
+ inter-operate better with out-of-the-box Windows client
+ installations. This does mean that either (a) a samba account
+ must be created for each user, or (b) 'encrypt passwords = no'
+ must be explicitly defined in smb.conf.
+
+ 2) Inclusion of new 'security = ads' option for integration
+ with an Active Directory domain using the native Windows
+ Kerberos 5 and LDAP protocols.
+
+ MIT kerberos 1.3.1 supports the ARCFOUR-HMAC-MD5 encryption
+ type which is neccessary for servers on which the
+ administrator password has not been changed, or kerberos-enabled
+ SMB connections to servers that require Kerberos SMB signing.
+ Besides this one difference, either MIT or Heimdal Kerberos
+ distributions are usable by Samba 3.0.
+
+
+Samba 3.0 also includes the possibility of setting up chains
+of authentication methods (auth methods) and account storage
+backends (passdb backend). Please refer to the smb.conf(5)
+man page for details. While both parameters assume sane default
+values, it is likely that you will need to understand what the
+values actually mean in order to ensure Samba operates correctly.
+
+The recommended passdb backends at this time are
+
+ * smbpasswd - 2.2 compatible flat file format
+ * tdbsam - attribute rich database intended as an smbpasswd
+ replacement for stand alone servers
+ * ldapsam - attribute rich account storage and retrieval
+ backend utilizing an LDAP directory.
+ * ldapsam_compat - a 2.2 backward compatible LDAP account
+ backend
+
+Certain functions of the smbpasswd(8) tool have been split between the
+new smbpasswd(8) utility, the net(8) tool, and the new pdbedit(8)
+utility. See the respective man pages for details.
+
+
+######################################################################
+LDAP
+####
+
+This section outlines the new features affecting Samba / LDAP
+integration.
+
+New Schema
+----------
+
+A new object class (sambaSamAccount) has been introduced to replace
+the old sambaAccount. This change aids us in the renaming of
+attributes to prevent clashes with attributes from other vendors.
+There is a conversion script (examples/LDAP/convertSambaAccount) to
+modify and LDIF file to the new schema.
+
+Example:
+
+ $ ldapsearch .... -b "ou=people,dc=..." > sambaAcct.ldif
+ $ convertSambaAccount --sid=<Domain SID> \
+ --input=sambaAcct.ldif --output=sambaSamAcct.ldif \
+ --changetype=[modify|add]
+
+The <DOM SID> can be obtained by running 'net getlocalsid
+<DOMAINNAME>' on the Samba PDC as root. The changetype determines
+the format of the generated LDIF output--either create new entries
+or modify existing entries.
+
+The old sambaAccount schema may still be used by specifying the
+"ldapsam_compat" passdb backend. However, the sambaAccount and
+associated attributes have been moved to the historical section of
+the schema file and must be uncommented before use if needed.
+The 2.2 object class declaration for a sambaAccount has not changed
+in the 3.0 samba.schema file.
+
+Other new object classes and their uses include:
+
+ * sambaDomain - domain information used to allocate rids
+ for users and groups as necessary. The attributes are added
+ in 'ldap suffix' directory entry automatically if
+ an idmap uid/gid range has been set and the 'ldapsam'
+ passdb backend has been selected.
+
+ * sambaGroupMapping - an object representing the
+ relationship between a posixGroup and a Windows
+ group/SID. These entries are stored in the 'ldap
+ group suffix' and managed by the 'net groupmap' command.
+
+ * sambaUnixIdPool - created in the 'ldap idmap suffix' entry
+ automatically and contains the next available 'idmap uid' and
+ 'idmap gid'
+
+ * sambaIdmapEntry - object storing a mapping between a
+ SID and a UNIX uid/gid. These objects are created by the
+ idmap_ldap module as needed.
+
+ * sambaSidEntry - object representing a SID alone, as a Structural
+ class on which to build the sambaIdmapEntry.
+
+
+New Suffix for Searching
+------------------------
+
+The following new smb.conf parameters have been added to aid in directing
+certain LDAP queries when 'passdb backend = ldapsam://...' has been
+specified.
+
+ * ldap suffix - used to search for user and computer accounts
+ * ldap user suffix - used to store user accounts
+ * ldap machine suffix - used to store machine trust accounts
+ * ldap group suffix - location of posixGroup/sambaGroupMapping entries
+ * ldap idmap suffix - location of sambaIdmapEntry objects
+
+If an 'ldap suffix' is defined, it will be appended to all of the
+remaining sub-suffix parameters. In this case, the order of the suffix
+listings in smb.conf is important. Always place the 'ldap suffix' first
+in the list.
+
+Due to a limitation in Samba's smb.conf parsing, you should not surround
+the DN's with quotation marks.
+
+
+IdMap LDAP support
+------------------
+
+Samba 3.0 supports an ldap backend for the idmap subsystem. The
+following options would inform Samba that the idmap table should be
+stored on the directory server onterose in the "ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,
+dc=org" partition.
+
+ [global]
+ ...
+ idmap backend = ldap:ldap://onterose/
+ ldap idmap suffix = ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,dc=org
+ idmap uid = 40000-50000
+ idmap gid = 40000-50000
+
+This configuration allows winbind installations on multiple servers to
+share a uid/gid number space, thus avoiding the interoperability problems
+with NFS that were present in Samba 2.2.
+
+
+
+######################################################################
+Trust Relationships and a Samba Domain
+######################################
+
+Samba 3.0.0beta2 is able to utilize winbindd as the means of
+allocating uids and gids to trusted users and groups. More
+information regarding Samba's support for establishing trust
+relationships can be found in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection included
+in the docs/ directory of this release.
+
+First create your Samba PDC and ensure that everything is
+working correctly before moving on the trusts.
+
+To establish Samba as the trusting domain (named SAMBA) from a Windows NT
+4.0 domain named WINDOWS:
+
+ 1) create the trust account for SAMBA in "User Manager for Domains"
+ 2) connect the trust from the Samba domain using
+ 'net rpc trustdom establish GLASS'
+
+To create a trustlationship with SAMBA as the trusted domain:
+
+ 1) create the initial trust account for GLASS using
+ 'smbpasswd -a -i GLASS'. You may need to create a UNIX
+ account for GLASS$ prior to this step (depending on your
+ local configuration).
+ 2) connect the trust from a WINDOWS DC using "User Manager
+ for Domains"
+
+Now join winbindd on the Samba PDC to the SAMBA domain using
+the normal steps for adding a Samba server to an NT4 domain:
+(note that smbd & nmbd must be running at this point)
+ root# net rpc join -U root
+ Password: <enter root password from smbpasswd file here>
+Start winbindd and test the join with 'wbinfo -t'.
+
+Now test the trust relationship by connecting to the SAMBA DC
+(e.g. POGO) as a user from the WINDOWS domain:
+
+ $ smbclient //pogo/netlogon -U Administrator -W WINDOWS
+ Password:
+
+Now connect to the WINDOWS DC (e.g. CRYSTAL) as a Samba user:
+
+ $ smbclient //crystal/netlogon -U root -W WINDOWS
+ Password:
+
+######################################################################
+Changes in Winbind
+##################
+
+Beginning with Samba3.0.0beta3, winbindd has been given new account
+manage functionality equivalent to the 'add user script' family of
+smb.conf parameters. The idmap design has also been changed to
+centralize control of foreign SID lookups and matching to UNIX
+uids and gids.
+
+
+Brief Description of Changes
+----------------------------
+
+1) The sid_to_uid() family of functions (smbd/uid.c) have been
+ reverted to the 2.2.x design. This means that when resolving a
+ SID to a UID or similar mapping:
+
+ a) First consult winbindd
+ b) perform a local lookup only if winbindd fails to
+ return a successful answer
+
+ There are some variations to this, but these two rules generally
+ apply.
+
+2) All idmap lookups have been moved into winbindd. This means that
+ a server must run winbindd (and support NSS) in order to achieve
+ any mappings of SID to dynamically allocated UNIX ids. This was
+ a conscious design choice.
+
+3) New functions have been added to winbindd to emulate the 'add user
+ script' family of smbd functions without requiring that external
+ scripts be defined. This functionality is controlled by the 'winbind
+ enable local accounts' smb.conf parameter (enabled by default).
+
+ However, this account management functionality is only supported
+ in a local tdb (winbindd_idmap.tdb). If these new UNIX accounts
+ must be shared among multiple Samba servers (such as a PDC and BDCs),
+ it will be necessary to define your own 'add user script', et. al.
+ programs that place the accounts/groups in some form of directory
+ such as NIS or LDAP. This requirement was deemed beyond the scope
+ of winbind's account management functions. Solutions for
+ distributing UNIX system information have been deployed and tested
+ for many years. We saw no need to reinvent the wheel.
+
+4) A member of a Samba controlled domain running winbindd is now able
+ to map domain users directly onto existing UNIX accounts while still
+ automatically creating accounts for trusted users and groups. This
+ behavior is controlled by the 'winbind trusted domains only' smb.conf
+ parameter (disabled by default to provide 2.2.x winbind behavior).
+
+5) Group mapping support is wrapped in the local_XX_to_XX() functions
+ in smbd/uid.c. The reason that group mappings are not included
+ in winbindd is because the purpose of Samba's group map is to
+ match any Windows SID with an existing UNIX group. These UNIX
+ groups can be created by winbindd (see next section), but the
+ SID<->gid mapping is retreived by smbd, not winbindd.
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+* security = server running winbindd to allocate accounts on demand
+
+* Samba PDC running winbindd to handle the automatic creation of UNIX
+ identities for machine trust accounts
+
+* Automtically creating UNIX user and groups when migrating a Windows NT
+ 4.0 PDC to a Samba PDC. Winbindd must be running when executing
+ 'net rpc vampire' for this to work.
+
+
