+
+I have added an interface versioning.
+
+Every module MUST have a pdb_version() function.
+
+this is defined in include/passdb.h:
+#define PDB_MODULE_VERSIONING_MAGIC \
+int pdb_version(void)\
+{\
+ return PASSDB_INTERFACE_VERSION;\
+}
+
+You MUST add this line inside a module:
+PDB_MODULE_VERSIONING_MAGIC

+
+The pdb_interface was changed:
+
+this function are deleted:
+static BOOL testsam_getsampwrid (struct pdb_methods *methods, SAM_ACCOUNT *user, uint32 rid)
+
+this function are added:
+static BOOL testsam_getsampwsid (struct pdb_methods *methods, SAM_ACCOUNT *user, DOM_SID sid)
+
+In the SAM_ACCOUNT struct:
+
+this fields are deleted:
+uint32 user_rid;
+uint32 group_rid;
+
+this fields are added:
+DOM_SID user_sid;
+DOM_SID group_sid;

The pdb_test.c file in this directory contains a very basic example of
DEBUG. Maybe it's nice to include some of the arguments to the function in the
future too..
+To debug passdb backends, try to run gdb on the 'pdbedit' executable. That's really much easier than restarting smbd constantly and attaching with your debugger.
+
+New passdb plugins should go into the samba lib directory, (/usr/lib/samba/ for
+most distributions) and should be prefixed with 'pdb_'. An example would be:
+/usr/lib/samba/pdb_test.so
