495 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.25
497 ==============================
499 The 3.0.25 release is an upgrade release over the 3.0.23/3.0.24
500 series which means that a substantial amount of development has
501 occurred and many new features have been added since the last
502 Samba production release. We would like to thank everyone in
503 the Samba community that help to test the preview snapshots and
504 release candidates. We believe that the this production release
505 is in much better shape due to your help.
507 Major features included in the 3.0.25 code base include:
509 o Significant improvements in the winbind off-line logon support.
510 o Support for secure DDNS updates as part of the 'net ads join'
512 o Rewritten IdMap interface which allows for TTL based caching and
514 o New plug-in interface for the "winbind nss info" parameter.
515 o New file change notify subsystem which is able to make use of
517 o Support for passing Windows security descriptors to a VFS
518 plug-in allowing for multiple Unix ACL implements to running side
519 by side on the Same server.
520 o Improved compatibility with Windows Vista clients including
521 improved read performance with Linux servers.
522 o Man pages for IdMap and VFS plug-ins.
524 Security Fixes included in the Samba 3.0.25 release are:
527 Versions: Samba 3.0.23d - 3.0.25pre2
528 Local SID/Name translation bug can result in
529 user privilege elevation
532 Versions: Samba 3.0.0 - 3.0.24
533 Multiple heap overflows allow remote code execution
536 Versions: Samba 3.0.0 - 3.0.24
537 Unescaped user input parameters are passed as
538 arguments to /bin/sh allowing for remote command
542 Off-line Logons and AD Site Support
543 ===================================
545 Winbind's capability to support offline logons has been greatly
546 improved with the 3.0.25 release including support for locating
547 domain controllers asynchronously using Active Directory Site
551 New IdMap Interface for Winbindd
552 ================================
554 The 3.0.25 release of Samba includes a rewritten IdMap interface
555 for winbindd which replaces the "idmap backend" parameter. Please
556 refer to the "idmap domains" description in the smb.conf(5) man
557 page for more details.
563 The "net ads join" command is now able to register the host's DNS A
564 records with Windows 2000 SP4 and 2003 DNS servers. This
565 feature must be enabled at compile time using the --with-dnsupdate
566 when running the ./configure script. There is also a related "net ads
567 dns" command for refreshing a host's records which could be launched
568 from a dhcp client script when a new IP address is obtained.
571 Support for Additional ACL Modules
572 ==================================
574 Samba's POSIX ACL support has been moved inside of the VFS layer
575 which means it is now possible to support multiple ACL implementations
576 on the same server including NFSv4 and GPFS ACLs.
582 Windows Vista introduces pipe-lined read support for improved
583 performance when transferring files. The new vfs_readahead plugin
584 allows Linux file servers to utilize additional Kernel buffers
585 for caching files in order to avoid Disk I/O wait time when serving
586 Vista clients. If you experience poor read performance between
587 Linux servers and Vista clients, please test the vfs_readahead
588 module by adding the following lines to the share definition
592 vfs objects = readahead
594 Note that this plugin will result in additional RAM requirements
595 due to the increased amount of kernel buffer caches used by smbd.
596 Please refer to vfs_readahead(8) for more information.
599 Windows Vista, Office 2007, and Offline Files
600 =============================================
602 Research surrounding offline files, Windows Vista, and Microsoft
603 Office 2007 has revealed a incompatibility between these
604 applications and the "map acl inherit = no" setting in smb.conf.
605 Users requiring support client side caching (csc) and offline
606 files are encouraged to enable the "map acl inherit" for any
607 affected share definitions in the server's configuration.
608 Future versions of Samba will enable this setting by default.
610 Please refer to the smb.conf(5) man page for more details on

1393 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23c
1395 ===============================
1397 We would like to thank the developers of the Saturn code analysis
1398 tool from Stanford University (http://glide.stanford.edu/saturn).
1399 This release includes several code fixes based on its reports.
1401 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.23c include:
1403 o Authentication failures in pam_winbind when the AD domain
1404 policy is set to not expire passwords.
1405 o Authorization failures when using smb.conf options such
1406 as "valid users" with the smbpasswd passdb backend.
1409 RID Algorithms & Passdb
1410 =======================
1412 Starting with the 3.0.23c release, the officially supported passdb
1413 backends (smbpasswd, tdbsam, and ldapsam) now operate identically
1414 with regards to the historical RID algorithm for unmapped users
1415 and groups (i.e. accounts not in the passdb or group mapping table).
1416 The resulting behavior is that all unmapped users are resolved
1417 to a SID in the S-1-22-1 domain and all unmapped groups resolve
1418 to a SID in the S-1-22-2 domain. Previously, when using the
1419 smbpasswd passdb, such users and groups would resolve to an
1420 algorithmic SID in the machine's own domain (S-1-5-XX-XX-XX).
1421 However, the smbpasswd backend still utilizes the RID algorithm
1422 when creating new user accounts or allocating a RID for a new
1423 group mapping entry.
1425 With the changes in the 3.0.23c release, it is now possible to
1426 resolve a uid/gid, name, or SID in any direction and always obtain
1427 a symmetric mapping. This is important so that values for smb.conf
1428 parameters such as "valid users" resolve to the same SIDs as those
1429 included in the local user's initial token.
1431 Most installations will notice no change. However, because
1432 an unmapped account's SID will now change even when using
1433 smbpasswd it is possible that any security descriptors on files
1434 previously copied from a Samba host to a Windows NTFS partition
1435 may now fail to give access. The workaround is to either manually
1436 map all affect groups (or add impacted users to the server's
1437 passdb) or to manually reset the file's ACL.

1513 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23b
1515 ===============================
1517 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.23b include:
1519 o Ambiguity with unqualified names in smb.conf parameters
1520 such as "force user" and "valid users".
1521 o Errors in 'net ads join' caused by bad IP address in the list
1522 of domain controllers.
1523 o SMB signing errors in the client and server code.
1524 o Domain join failures when using smbpasswd on a Samba PDC.
1527 Member servers, domain accounts, and smb.conf
1528 =============================================
1530 Since Samba 3.0.8, it has been recommended that all domain accounts
1531 listed in smb.conf on a member server be fully qualified with the
1532 domain name. This is now a requirement. All unqualified names are
1533 assumed to be local to the Unix host, either as part of the server's
1534 local passdb or in the local system list of accounts (e.g. /etc/passwd
1537 The reason for this change is that smbd has transitioned from
1538 access checks based on string comparisons to token based
1539 authorization. All names are resolved to a SID and then verified
1540 against the logged on user's NT user token. Local names will
1541 resolve to a local SID, while qualified domain names will resolve
1542 to the appropriate domain SID.
1544 If the member server is not running winbindd at all, domain
1545 accounts will be implicitly mapped to local accounts and their
1546 tokens will be modified appropriately to reflect the local
1547 SID and group membership.
1549 For example, the following share will restrict access to the
1550 domain group "Linux Admins" and the local group srvadmin.
1554 valid users = +"DOMAIN\Linux Admins" +srvadmin
1556 Note that to restrict the [homes] share on a member server to the
1557 owner of that directory, it is necessary to prefix the %S value
1561 security = {domain,ads}
1563 winbind separator = +
1565 valid users = DOM+%S

1721 --------------------------------------------------
1723 ==============================
1724 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23
1726 ==============================
1728 There has been a substantial amount of cleanup work done during
1729 this development cycle. We would like to thank both Coverity
1730 (http://www.coverity.com/) and Klocwork (http://www.klocwork.com/)
1731 for analyzing the Samba source code. As a result, this release
1732 includes fixes for over 400 defects. The coverage was approximately
1733 even with over 200 defects reported by each tool.
1735 Thanks very much to those people who spent time testing the
1736 release candidates and reported their findings. We would like to
1737 especially thank Thomas Bork <tombork@web.de> for his numerous
1738 reports. We believe that the final release is in much better shape
1739 in large part due to his efforts.
1741 New features in 3.0.23 include:
1743 o Improved 'make test'
1744 o New offline mode in winbindd.
1745 o New Kerberos support for pam_winbind.so.
1746 o New handling of unmapped users and groups.
1747 o New non-root share management tools.
1748 o Improved support for local and BUILTIN groups.
1749 o Winbind IDMAP integration with RFC2307 schema objects supported
1751 o Rewritten 'net ads join' to mimic Windows XP without requiring
1752 administrative rights to join a domain.
1755 User and Group changes
1756 ======================
1758 The user and group internal management routines have been
1759 rewritten to prevent overlaps of assigned Relative Identifiers
1760 (RIDs). In the past the has been a potential problem when either
1761 manually mapping Unix groups with the 'net groupmap' command or
1762 when migrating a Windows domain to a Samba domain using 'net rpc
1765 Unmapped users are now assigned a SID in the S-1-22-1 domain and
1766 unmapped groups are assigned a SID in the S-1-22-2 domain.
1767 Previously they were assign a RID within the SAM on the Samba
1768 server. For a DC this would have been under the authority of the
1769 domain SID where as on a member server or standalone host, this
1770 would have been under the authority of the local SAM (hint: net
1773 The result is that any unmapped users or groups on an upgraded
1774 Samba domain controller may be assigned a new SID. Because the
1775 SID rather than a name is stored in Windows security descriptors,
1776 this can cause a user to no longer have access to a resource for
1777 example if a file was copied from a Samba file server to a local
1778 NTFS partition. Any files stored on the Samba server itself will
1779 continue to be accessible because Unix stores the Unix gid and not
1780 the SID for authorization checks.
1782 A further example will help illustrate the change. Assume that a
1783 group named 'developers' exists with a Unix gid of 782 but this
1784 user does not exist in Samba's group mapping table. it would be
1785 perfectly normal for this group to be appear in an ACL editor.
1786 Prior to 3.0.23, the group SID might appear as
1787 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565. With 3.0.23, the
1788 group SID would be reported as S-1-22-2-782. Any security
1789 descriptors associated with files stored on an NTFS disk partition
1790 would not allow access based on the group permissions if the user
1791 was not a member of the
1792 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565 group. Because this
1793 group SID not reported in a user's token is S-1-22-2-782, Windows
1794 would fail the authorization check even though both SIDs in some
1795 respect referred to the same Unix group.
1797 The current workaround is to create a manual domain group mapping
1798 entry for the group 'developers' to point at the
1799 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565 SID.
1805 The "passdb backend" parameter no long accepts multiple backends
1806 in a chaining configuration. Also be aware that the SQL and XML
1807 based passdb modules have been removed in this release. More
1808 information of external support for a SQL passdb module can be
1809 found at http://pdbsql.sourceforge.net/.
1812 Group Mapping Changes
1813 =====================
1815 The default mapping entries for groups such as "Domain Admins" are
1816 no longer created when using an smbpasswd file or a tdbsam passdb
1817 backend. This means that it is necessary to use 'net groupmap
1818 add' rather than 'net groupmap modify' to set these entries.
1819 This change has no effect on winbindd's IDmap functionality for
1826 There has also been a minor update the Samba LDAP schema file. A
1827 substring matching rule has been added to the sambaSID attribute
1828 definition. For OpenLDAP servers, this will require the addition
1829 of 'index sambaSID sub' to the slapd.conf configuration file. It
1830 will be necessary to run slapindex after making this change. There
1831 has been no change to actual data storage schema.

2484 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.22
2486 ==============================
2488 This is a security release of Samba. The Samba 3.0.21 release
2489 series (including the patch releases a through c) has been
2490 discovered to expose the clear text of the server's machine
2491 account credentials in the winbind log files when the log
2492 level is set to 5 or higher. This defect has been assigned
2493 the CVE number CAN-2006-1059.
2498 The machine trust account password is the secret shared
2499 between a domain controller and a specific member server.
2500 Access to the member server machine credentials allows
2501 an attacker to impersonate the server in the domain and
2502 gain access to additional information regarding domain
2505 The winbindd daemon included in Samba 3.0.21 and subsequent
2506 patch releases (3.0.21a-c) writes the clear text of server's
2507 machine credentials to its log file at level 5. The winbindd
2508 log files are world readable by default and often log files
2509 are requested on open mailing lists as tools used to debug
2510 server misconfigurations.
2512 This affects servers configured to use domain or ads security
2513 and possibly Samba domain controllers as well (if configured

3368 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.20a
3370 ===============================
3372 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.20a include:
3374 o Stability problems with winbindd.
3375 o Crash bugs caused by incompatibilities on 64-bit systems.
3376 o Missing files from directory listings on AIX servers
3377 o User Manager interoperability problems.
3378 o Minor build difficulties on various platforms such as
3379 Solaris and OpenBSD,
3382 Winbind, security = domain, and Active Directory
3383 ================================================
3385 Recent security updates for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 have
3386 changed the fashion in which user and group lists can be obtained
3387 from domain controllers. In short, the RPC mechanisms used by
3388 "security = domain" to retrieve users and groups is not compatible
3389 with these changes. The "security = ads" configuration is not
3390 affected by the Windows protocol changes.
3392 Samba developers are actively working to correct this problem in
3393 the 3.0.21 release. In the meantime, Administrators who are unable
3394 to migrate to "security = ads" and must continue using "security =
3395 domain", can define credentials to be used by winbindd for account
3396 enumeration by executing the following command as root.
3398 wbinfo --set-auth-user='DOMAIN\username%password'

3519 ==============================
3520 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.20
3522 ==============================
3524 Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.20 include:
3526 o Support for several new Win32 rpc pipes.
3527 o Improved support for OS/2 clients.
3528 o New 'net rpc service' tool for managing Win32 services.
3529 o Capability to set the owner on new files and directory
3530 based on the parent's ownership.
3531 o Experimental, asynchronous IO file serving support.
3532 o Completed Support for Microsoft Print Migrator.
3533 o New Winbind IDmap plugin (ad) for retrieving uid and gid
3534 from AD servers which maintain the SFU user and group
3536 o Rewritten support for POSIX pathnames when utilizing
3537 the Linux CIFS fs client.
3538 o New asynchronous winbindd.
3539 o Support for Microsoft Print Migrator.
3540 o New Windows NT registry file I/O library.
3541 o New user right (SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege) added.
3542 o New "net share migrate" options.
3545 What happened to 3.0.15 - 3.0.19?
3546 ==================================
3548 After some discussion it was deemed that the amount of changes
3549 going into the next Samba 3.0 release needed something to catch
3550 people's attention. Skipping several releases was chosen as
3551 the best solution with the least overhead. There will be no
3552 3.0.15 - 3.0.19 ever released. The next production release
3553 following 3.0.20 should be 3.0.21.
3555 The original announcement about the version number change can
3556 be found in the samba mailing list archives:
3558 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=samba&m=111721010206997&w=2
3561 Asynchronous Winbind Implementation
3562 ===================================
3564 Winbindd has been completely rewritten in this release to support
3565 an almost completely non-blocking, asynchronous request/reply
3566 model. This means that winbindd will scale much better in
3567 large domain environments and on high latency networks. Neither
3568 the client interface nor the command line tools (i.e. wbinfo) have
3569 changed in their calling conventions or syntax. However, due to
3570 internal structure changes, it is required (more so than normal)
3571 that you install the nss_winbind.so library included in this release.
3574 Support for Microsoft Print Migrator
3575 ====================================
3577 Samba 3.0.20 includes full support for migrating printers from
3578 Windows servers or other Samba servers via the Microsoft Print
3579 Migrator tool. Restoring printers requires a working "add printer
3580 command" defined in smb.conf. Current support also allows
3581 administrators to create a master list of printer drivers which
3582 can be restored in bulk on new (or existing) Samba installations.
3585 Asynchronous IO Support
3586 =======================
3588 Experimental support for async IO has been added to smbd for
3589 certain platforms. To enable this new feature, Samba must be
3590 compiled to include the --with-aio-support configure option.
3591 In addition, the "aio read size" and "aio write size" to non-zero
3592 values. See the smb.conf(5) man page for more details on these

4493 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.12
4495 ==============================
4497 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.12 include:
4499 o Winbind failures when using 'disable netbios = yes'
4500 o Failure to establish a trust relationship via 'net rpc trust
4502 o Various portability & compiler issues.
4503 o Read only file deletion failure caused by new delete semantics
4504 in Windows XP SP2 and the MS 04-044 security hotfix.
4505 o Error messages from shared Excel workbooks residing on Samba
4507 o Missing files in the output of smbclient -c 'dir' when run
4508 against Windows file servers.

4512 Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.12:
4514 o Performance enhancements when serving directories containing
4515 large number of files.
4516 o MS-DFS support added to smbclient.
4517 o More performance improvements when using Samba/OpenLDAP based

4519 o Support for the Novell NDS universal password when using the
4520 ldapsam passdb backend.

4522 replace 'smbpasswd {-a,-x} -i'.
4523 o New libsmbclient functionality.
4527 =======================
4528 Large Directory Support
4529 =======================
4531 Samba 3.0.12pre1 introduces a specific mechanism for dealing
4532 with file services that frequently contain a large number of files
4533 per directory. Historically Samba's performance has suffered
4534 in such environments due to the translation from case
4535 insensitive lookups by Windows client to the case sensitive
4536 storage mechanisms used by UNIX filesystems.
4538 Configuration details along with a short HOWTO can be found at:
4540 http://www.samba.org/samba/ftp/HOWTO/Samba-LargeDirectory-HOWTO
4543 ==================================
4544 libsmbclient Binary Compatibility
4545 ==================================
4547 Please note that a change has been made to the _SMBCCTX structure
4548 in source/include/libsmbclient.h. This change is not backwards
4549 compatible with applications linked against the libsmbclient.so
4550 library from Samba 3.0.11. However, it is compatible with all
4551 other Samba 3.0.x releases. This means that it will be most likely
4552 be necessary to recompile any applications linked against the
4553 3.0.11 version of the library.

4867 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.11
4869 ==============================
4871 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.11 include:
4873 o Crash in smbd when using CUPS printing.
4874 o Parsing error of other SIDs included in the user_info_3
4875 structure returned from domain controllers.
4876 o Inefficiencies when searching non-AD LDAP directories.
4877 o Failure to expand variables in user domain attributes
4878 in tdbsam and ldapsam.
4880 o Failure to retrieve certain attribute when migrating from
4881 a Windows DC to a Samba DC via 'net rpc vampire'.
4882 o Numerous printing bugs bugs including memory
4883 bloating on large/busy print servers.
4884 o Compatibility issues with Exchange 5.5 SP4.
4887 Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.11:
4889 o Winbindd performance improvements.
4890 o More 'net rpc vampire' functionality.
4891 o Support for the Windows privilege model to assign rights
4893 o New administrative options to the 'net rpc' command.
4900 If "ldap user suffix" or "ldap machine suffix" are defined in
4901 smb.conf, all user-accounts must reside below the user suffix,
4902 and all machine and inter-domain trust-accounts must be located
4903 below the machine suffix. Previous Samba releases would fall
4904 back to searching the 'ldap suffix' in some cases.
4911 Samba 3.0.11 supports the following assignable rights
4913 SeMachineAccountPrivilege Add machines to domain
4914 SePrintOperatorPrivilege Manage printers
4915 SeAddUsersPrivilege Add users and groups to the domain
4916 SeRemoteShutdownPrivilege Force shutdown from a remote system
4917 SeDiskOperatorPrivilege Manage disk shares
4919 These rights can be assigned to arbitrary users or groups
4920 via the 'net rpc rights grant/revoke' command. More details
4921 of Samba's privilege implementation can be found in the
4922 Samba-HOWTO-Collection.

5449 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.8

5453 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.8 include:
5455 o Compile fixes for HP-UX
5456 o Fixes for the printer publishing code used when joined to
5458 o Incompatibilities with file system quotas.
5459 o Several bugs in the spoolss printing code and print system
5461 o Inconsistencies in the username map functionality when

5463 o Various compile warnings and errors on various platforms.
5464 o Fixes for Kerberos interoperability with Windows 200x
5465 domains when using DES keys.
5466 o Fix for CAN-2004-0930 -- smbd remote DoS vulnerability.
5467 o Fix for CAN-2004-0882 -- possible buffer overrun in smbd.
5470 New features included in the 3.0.8 release are:
5472 o New migration functionality added the the net tool
5473 for files/directories, printers, and shares.
5474 o New experimental idmap backend for assigning uids/gids
5475 directly based on the user/group RID when acting as a
5476 member of single domain without any trusts.
5477 o Additional printer migration support for XP/2003 platforms.
5480 ===========================
5481 Change in Winbindd Behavior
5482 ===========================
5484 All usernames returned by winbindd are now converted to lower
5485 case for better consistency. This means any winbind installation
5486 relying on the winbind username will need to rename existing
5487 directories and/or files based on the username (%u and %U) to lower
5488 case (e.g. mv $name `echo $name | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`). This may
5489 include mail spool files, home directories, valid user lines in
5493 ======================
5494 Change in Username Map
5495 ======================
5497 Previous Samba releases would only support reading the fully qualified
5498 username (e.g. DOMAIN\user) from the username map when performing a
5499 Kerberos login from a client. However, when looking up a map
5500 entry for a user authenticated by NTLM[SSP], only the login name would be
5501 used for matches. This resulted in inconsistent behavior sometimes
5502 even on the same server.
5504 Samba 3.0.8 obeys the following rules when applying the username
5507 * When performing local authentication, the username map is
5508 applied to the login name before attempting to authenticate
5510 * When relying upon a external domain controller for validating
5511 authentication requests, smbd will apply the username map
5512 to the fully qualified username (i.e. DOMAIN\user) only
5513 after the user has been successfully authenticated.

6051 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.6
6053 =============================
6055 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.6 include:
6057 o Schannel failure in winbindd.
6058 o Numerous memory leaks.
6059 o Incompatibilities between the 'write list' and 'force user'
6061 o Premature optimization of the open_directory() internal
6062 function that broke tools such as the ArcServe backup
6063 agent, Macromedia HomeSite, and Robocopy.
6064 o Corrupt workgroup names in nmbd's browse.dat.
6065 o Sharing violation errors commonly seen when opening
6066 when serving Microsoft Office documents from a Samba
6068 o Browsing problems caused by an apostrophe (') in the
6069 computer's description field.
6070 o Problems creating special file types from UNIX CIFS
6071 clients and enabling 'unix extensions'.
6072 o Fix stalls in smbd caused by inaccessible LDAP servers.
6073 o Remove various memory leaks.
6074 o Fix issues in the password lockout feature.
6076 New features introduced in this release include:
6078 O Support symlinks created by CIFS clients which
6079 can be followed on the server.
6080 o Using a cups server other than localhost.
6081 o Maintaining the service principal entry in the system
6082 keytab for integration with other kerberized services.
6083 Please refer to the 'use Kerberos keytab' entry in
6084 smb.conf(5). When using the heimdal Kerberos libraries,
6085 you must also specify the following in /etc/krb5.conf:
6087 default_keytab_name = FILE:/etc/krb5.keytab
6088 o Support for maintaining individual printer names
6089 stored separately from the printer's sharename.
6090 o Support for maintaining user password history.
6091 o Support for honoring the logon times for user in a
6095 ============================================
6096 unix extensions = yes (default) and symlinks
6097 ============================================
6099 Beginning with Samba 3.0.6pre1 (formerly known as 3.0.5pre1),
6100 clients supporting the UNIX extensions to the CIFS protocol
6101 can create symlinks to absolute paths which will be **followed**
6102 by the server. This functionality has been requested in order
6103 to correctly support certain applications when the user's home
6104 directory is mounted using some type of CIFS client (e.g. the
6105 cifsvfs in the Linux 2.6 kernel).
6107 If this behavior is not acceptable for your production environment
6108 you can set 'wide links = no' in the specific share declaration in
6109 the server's smb.conf. Be aware that disabling wide link support
6110 out of a share in Samba may impact the server's performance due
6111 to the fact that smbd will now have to check each path additional
6112 times before traversing it.
6115 ========================
6116 Password History Support
6117 ========================
6119 The new password history feature allows smbd to check the new
6120 password in password change requests against a list of the user's
6121 previous passwords. The number of previous passwords to save can
6122 be set using pdbedit (4 in this example):
6124 root# pdbedit -P "password history" -C 4
6126 When using the ldapsam passdb backend, it is vital to secure the
6127 following attributes from access by non-administrative users:
6131 * sambaPasswordHistory
6133 You should refer to your directory server's documentation on how
6134 to implement this restriction.

6550 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.5
6552 =============================
6554 Please note that Samba 3.0.5 is identical to Samba 3.0.4 with
6555 the exception of correcting the two security issues outlined
6558 ######################## SECURITY RELEASE ########################
6560 Summary: Multiple Potential Buffer Overruns in Samba 3.0.x
6561 CVE ID: CAN-2004-0600, CAN-2004-0686
6562 (http://cve.mitre.org/)
6565 This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is the version
6566 that production Samba servers should be running for all current
6569 It has been confirmed that versions of Samba 3 prior to v3.0.4
6570 are vulnerable to two potential buffer overruns. The individual
6571 details are given below.
6577 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.2 and later
6579 The internal routine used by the Samba Web Administration
6580 Tool (SWAT v3.0.2 and later) to decode the base64 data
6581 during HTTP basic authentication is subject to a buffer
6582 overrun caused by an invalid base64 character. It is
6583 recommended that all Samba v3.0.2 or later installations
6584 running SWAT either (a) upgrade to v3.0.5, or (b) disable
6585 the swat administration service as a temporary workaround.
6587 This same code is used internally to decode the
6588 sambaMungedDial attribute value when using the ldapsam
6589 passdb backend. While we do not believe that the base64
6590 decoding routines used by the ldapsam passdb backend can
6591 be exploited, sites using an LDAP directory service with
6592 Samba are strongly encouraged to verify that the DIT only
6593 allows write access to sambaSamAccount attributes by a
6594 sufficiently authorized user.
6596 The Samba Team would like to heartily thank Evgeny Demidov
6597 for analyzing and reporting this bug.
6603 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.0 and later
6605 A buffer overrun has been located in the code used to support
6606 the 'mangling method = hash' smb.conf option. Please be aware
6607 that the default setting for this parameter is 'mangling method
6608 = hash2' and therefore not vulnerable.
6610 Affected Samba 3 installations can avoid this possible security
6611 bug by using the default hash2 mangling method. Server
6612 installations requiring the hash mangling method are encouraged
6613 to upgrade to Samba 3.0.5.

7186 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2a
7188 ==============================
7190 Samba 3.0.2a is a minor patch release for the 3.0.2 code base
7191 to address, in particular, a problem when using pdbedit to
7192 sanitize (--force-initialized-passwords) Samba's tdbsam
7193 backend. This is the latest stable release of Samba. This
7194 is the version that all production Samba servers should be
7195 running for all current bug-fixes.
7197 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
7199 Beginning with Samba 3.0.2, passwords for accounts with a last
7200 change time (LCT-XXX in smbpasswd, sambaPwdLastSet attribute in
7201 ldapsam, etc...) of zero (0) will be regarded as uninitialized
7202 strings. This will cause authentication to fail for such
7203 accounts. If you have valid passwords that meet this criteria,
7204 you must update the last change time to a non-zero value. If you
7205 do not, then 'pdbedit --force-initialized-passwords' will disable
7206 these accounts and reset the password hashes to a string of X's.
7208 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
7217 Please refer to the CVS log for the SAMBA_3_0 branch for complete
7218 details. The list of changes per contributor are as follows:
7221 o Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
7222 * Added paranoia checks in parsing code.
7225 o Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>
7226 * Ensure that changes to uninitialized passwords in ldapsam
7227 are written to the DIT.

7231 * Fixed iterator in tdbsam.
7232 * Fix bug that disabled accounts with a valid NT password
7233 hash, but no LanMan hash.
7236 o Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
7237 * Added missing nosetuid and noexec options.
7240 o Bostjan Golob <golob@gimb.org>

7259 =============================
7260 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2
7262 =============================
7264 It has been confirmed that previous versions of Samba 3.0 are
7265 susceptible to a password initialization bug that could grant an
7266 attacker unauthorized access to a user account created by the
7267 mksmbpasswd.sh shell script.
7269 The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
7270 has assigned the name CAN-2004-0082 to this issue.
7272 Samba administrators not wishing to upgrade to the current
7273 version should download the 3.0.2 release, build the pdbedit
7276 root# pdbedit-3.0.2 --force-initialized-passwords
7278 This will disable all accounts not possessing a valid password
7279 (e.g. the password field has been set a string of X's).
7281 Samba servers running 3.0.2 are not vulnerable to this bug
7282 regardless of whether or not pdbedit has been used to sanitize
7285 Some of the more visible bugs in 3.0.1 addressed in the 3.0.2
7288 o Joining a Samba domain from Pre-SP2 Windows 2000 clients.
7289 o Logging onto a Samba domain from Windows XP clients.
7290 o Problems with the %U and %u smb.conf variables in relation to
7291 Windows 9x/ME clients.
7292 o Kerberos failures due to an invalid in memory keytab detection
7294 o Updates to the ntlm_auth tool.
7295 o Fixes for various SMB signing errors.
7296 o Better separation of WINS and DNS queries for domain controllers.
7297 o Issues with nss_winbind FreeBSD and Solaris.
7298 o Several crash bugs in smbd and winbindd.
7299 o Output formatting fixes for smbclient for better compatibility
7300 with scripts based on the 2.2 version.

7778 o Adds a variant of the winbindd_getgroups() call called
7779 winbindd_getusersids() that provides direct SID->SIDs listing of
7780 a users supplementary groups. This is enough to allow non-Samba

7872 The original 3.0.0 release notes follow
7873 =======================================
7874 WHATS NEW IN Samba 3.0.0
7876 =======================================
7882 1) Active Directory support. Samba 3.0 is now able to
7883 join a ADS realm as a member server and authenticate
7884 users using LDAP/Kerberos.
7886 2) Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate UNICODE on the wire
7887 and internally there is now a much better infrastructure for
7888 multi-byte and UNICODE character sets.
7890 3) New authentication system. The internal authentication system
7891 has been almost completely rewritten. Most of the changes are
7892 internal, but the new auth system is also very configurable.
7894 4) New default filename mangling system.
7896 5) A new "net" command has been added. It is somewhat similar to
7897 the "net" command in windows. Eventually we plan to replace
7898 numerous other utilities (such as smbpasswd) with subcommands
7901 6) Samba now negotiates NT-style status32 codes on the wire. This
7902 improves error handling a lot.
7904 7) Better Windows 2000/XP/2003 printing support including publishing
7905 printer attributes in active directory.
7907 8) New loadable module support for passdb backends and character
7910 9) New default dual-daemon winbindd support for better performance.
7912 10) Support for migrating from a Windows NT 4.0 domain to a Samba
7913 domain and maintaining user, group and domain SIDs.
7915 11) Support for establishing trust relationships with Windows NT 4.0
7918 12) Initial support for a distributed Winbind architecture using
7919 an LDAP directory for storing SID to uid/gid mappings.
7921 13) Major updates to the Samba documentation tree.
7923 14) Full support for client and server SMB signing to ensure
7924 compatibility with default Windows 2003 security settings.
7926 15) Improvement of ACL mapping features based on code donated by
7927 Andreas Grünbacher.
7930 Plus lots of other improvements!
7933 Additional Documentation
7934 ------------------------
7936 Please refer to Samba documentation tree (included in the docs/
7937 subdirectory) for extensive explanations of installing, configuring
7938 and maintaining Samba 3.0 servers and clients. It is advised to
7939 begin with the Samba-HOWTO-Collection for overviews and specific
7940 tasks (the current book is up to approximately 400 pages) and to
7941 refer to the various man pages for information on individual options.
7943 We are very glad to be able to include the second edition of
7944 "Using Samba" by Jay Ts, Robert Eckstein, and David Collier-Brown
7945 (O'Reilly & Associates) in this release. The book is available
7946 on-line at http://samba.org/samba/docs/ and is included with
7947 the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). Thanks to the authors and
7948 publisher for making "Using Samba" under the GNU Free Documentation

7956 Beginning with Samba 3.0.0beta3, the RID allocation functions
7957 have been moved into winbindd. Previously these were handled
7958 by each passdb backend. This means that winbindd must be running
7959 to automatically allocate RIDs for users and/or groups. Otherwise,
7960 smbd will use the 2.2 algorithm for generating new RIDs.
7962 If you are using 'passdb backend = tdbsam' with a previous Samba
7963 3.0 beta release (or possibly alpha), it may be necessary to
7964 move the RID_COUNTER entry from /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
7965 to winbindd_idmap.tdb. To do this:
7967 1) Ensure that winbindd_idmap.tdb exists (launch winbindd at least
7969 2) build tdbtool by executing 'make tdbtool' in the source/tdb/
7971 3) run: (note that 'tdb>' is the tool's prompt for input)
7973 root# ./tdbtool /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
7974 tdb> show RID_COUNTER
7978 [000] 0A 52 00 00 .R.
7980 tdb> move RID_COUNTER /usr/local/samba/var/locks/winbindd_idmap.tdb
7984 If you are using 'passdb backend = ldapsam', it will be necessary to
7985 store idmap entries in the LDAP directory as well (i.e. idmap backend
7986 = ldap). Refer to the 'net idmap' command for more information on
7987 migrating SID<->UNIX id mappings from one backend to another.
7989 If the RID_COUNTER record does not exist, then these instructions are
7990 unneccessary and the new RID_COUNTER record will be correctly generated

8172 ${lock directory}/*tdb before upgrading to Samba 3.0. Samba will
8173 upgrade databases as they are opened (if necessary), but downgrading
8174 from 3.0 to 2.2 is an unsupported path.

8179 gencache Generic caching db no
8180 group_mapping Mapping table from Windows yes
8181 groups/SID to unix groups
8182 winbindd_idmap ID map table from SIDS to UNIX yes

8189 command' created on a per print
8191 registry Read-only samba registry skeleton no
8192 that provides support for exporting
8193 various db tables via the winreg RPCs
8199 The following issues are known changes in behavior between Samba 2.2 and
8200 Samba 3.0 that may affect certain installations of Samba.
8202 1) When operating as a member of a Windows domain, Samba 2.2 would
8203 map any users authenticated by the remote DC to the 'guest account'
8204 if a uid could not be obtained via the getpwnam() call. Samba 3.0
8205 rejects the connection as NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. There is no
8206 current work around to re-establish the 2.2 behavior.
8208 2) When adding machines to a Samba 2.2 controlled domain, the
8209 'add user script' was used to create the UNIX identity of the
8210 machine trust account. Samba 3.0 introduces a new 'add machine
8211 script' that must be specified for this purpose. Samba 3.0 will
8212 not fall back to using the 'add user script' in the absence of
8213 an 'add machine script'
8216 ######################################################################
8217 Passdb Backends and Authentication
8218 ##################################
8220 There have been a few new changes that Samba administrators should be
8221 aware of when moving to Samba 3.0.
8223 1) encrypted passwords have been enabled by default in order to
8224 inter-operate better with out-of-the-box Windows client
8225 installations. This does mean that either (a) a samba account
8226 must be created for each user, or (b) 'encrypt passwords = no'
8227 must be explicitly defined in smb.conf.
8229 2) Inclusion of new 'security = ads' option for integration
8230 with an Active Directory domain using the native Windows
8231 Kerberos 5 and LDAP protocols.
8233 MIT Kerberos 1.3.1 supports the ARCFOUR-HMAC-MD5 encryption
8234 type which is neccessary for servers on which the
8235 administrator password has not been changed, or Kerberos-enabled
8236 SMB connections to servers that require Kerberos SMB signing.
8237 Besides this one difference, either MIT or Heimdal Kerberos
8238 distributions are usable by Samba 3.0.
8241 Samba 3.0 also includes the possibility of setting up chains
8242 of authentication methods (auth methods) and account storage
8243 backends (passdb backend). Please refer to the smb.conf(5)
8244 man page for details. While both parameters assume sane default
8245 values, it is likely that you will need to understand what the
8246 values actually mean in order to ensure Samba operates correctly.
8248 The recommended passdb backends at this time are
8250 * smbpasswd - 2.2 compatible flat file format
8251 * tdbsam - attribute rich database intended as an smbpasswd
8252 replacement for stand alone servers
8253 * ldapsam - attribute rich account storage and retrieval
8254 backend utilizing an LDAP directory.
8255 * ldapsam_compat - a 2.2 backward compatible LDAP account
8258 Certain functions of the smbpasswd(8) tool have been split between the
8259 new smbpasswd(8) utility, the net(8) tool, and the new pdbedit(8)
8260 utility. See the respective man pages for details.
8263 ######################################################################
8267 This section outlines the new features affecting Samba / LDAP
8273 A new object class (sambaSamAccount) has been introduced to replace
8274 the old sambaAccount. This change aids us in the renaming of
8275 attributes to prevent clashes with attributes from other vendors.
8276 There is a conversion script (examples/LDAP/convertSambaAccount) to
8277 modify and LDIF file to the new schema.
8281 $ ldapsearch .... -b "ou=people,dc=..." > sambaAcct.ldif
8282 $ convertSambaAccount --sid=<Domain SID> \
8283 --input=sambaAcct.ldif --output=sambaSamAcct.ldif \
8284 --changetype=[modify|add]
8286 The <DOM SID> can be obtained by running 'net getlocalsid
8287 <DOMAINNAME>' on the Samba PDC as root. The changetype determines
8288 the format of the generated LDIF output--either create new entries
8289 or modify existing entries.
8291 The old sambaAccount schema may still be used by specifying the
8292 "ldapsam_compat" passdb backend. However, the sambaAccount and
8293 associated attributes have been moved to the historical section of
8294 the schema file and must be uncommented before use if needed.
8295 The 2.2 object class declaration for a sambaAccount has not changed
8296 in the 3.0 samba.schema file.
8298 Other new object classes and their uses include:
8300 * sambaDomain - domain information used to allocate rids
8301 for users and groups as necessary. The attributes are added
8302 in 'ldap suffix' directory entry automatically if
8303 an idmap uid/gid range has been set and the 'ldapsam'
8304 passdb backend has been selected.
8306 * sambaGroupMapping - an object representing the
8307 relationship between a posixGroup and a Windows
8308 group/SID. These entries are stored in the 'ldap
8309 group suffix' and managed by the 'net groupmap' command.
8311 * sambaUnixIdPool - created in the 'ldap idmap suffix' entry
8312 automatically and contains the next available 'idmap uid' and
8315 * sambaIdmapEntry - object storing a mapping between a
8316 SID and a UNIX uid/gid. These objects are created by the
8317 idmap_ldap module as needed.
8319 * sambaSidEntry - object representing a SID alone, as a Structural
8320 class on which to build the sambaIdmapEntry.
8323 New Suffix for Searching
8324 ------------------------
8326 The following new smb.conf parameters have been added to aid in directing
8327 certain LDAP queries when 'passdb backend = ldapsam://...' has been
8330 * ldap suffix - used to search for user and computer accounts
8331 * ldap user suffix - used to store user accounts
8332 * ldap machine suffix - used to store machine trust accounts
8333 * ldap group suffix - location of posixGroup/sambaGroupMapping entries
8334 * ldap idmap suffix - location of sambaIdmapEntry objects
8336 If an 'ldap suffix' is defined, it will be appended to all of the
8337 remaining sub-suffix parameters. In this case, the order of the suffix
8338 listings in smb.conf is important. Always place the 'ldap suffix' first
8341 Due to a limitation in Samba's smb.conf parsing, you should not surround
8342 the DN's with quotation marks.
8348 Samba 3.0 supports an ldap backend for the idmap subsystem. The
8349 following options would inform Samba that the idmap table should be
8350 stored on the directory server onterose in the "ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,
8355 idmap backend = ldap:ldap://onterose/
8356 ldap idmap suffix = ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,dc=org
8357 idmap uid = 40000-50000
8358 idmap gid = 40000-50000
8360 This configuration allows winbind installations on multiple servers to
8361 share a uid/gid number space, thus avoiding the interoperability problems
8362 with NFS that were present in Samba 2.2.
8366 ######################################################################
8367 Trust Relationships and a Samba Domain
8368 ######################################
8370 Samba 3.0.0beta2 is able to utilize winbindd as the means of
8371 allocating uids and gids to trusted users and groups. More
8372 information regarding Samba's support for establishing trust
8373 relationships can be found in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection included
8374 in the docs/ directory of this release.
8376 First create your Samba PDC and ensure that everything is
8377 working correctly before moving on the trusts.
8379 To establish Samba as the trusting domain (named SAMBA) from a Windows NT
8380 4.0 domain named WINDOWS:
8382 1) create the trust account for SAMBA in "User Manager for Domains"
8383 2) connect the trust from the Samba domain using
8384 'net rpc trustdom establish GLASS'
8386 To create a trustlationship with SAMBA as the trusted domain:
8388 1) create the initial trust account for GLASS using
8389 'smbpasswd -a -i GLASS'. You may need to create a UNIX
8390 account for GLASS$ prior to this step (depending on your
8391 local configuration).
8392 2) connect the trust from a WINDOWS DC using "User Manager
8395 Now join winbindd on the Samba PDC to the SAMBA domain using
8396 the normal steps for adding a Samba server to an NT4 domain:
8397 (note that smbd & nmbd must be running at this point)
8399 root# net rpc join -U root
8400 Password: <enter root password from smbpasswd file here>
8402 Start winbindd and test the join with 'wbinfo -t'.
8404 Now test the trust relationship by connecting to the SAMBA DC
8405 (e.g. POGO) as a user from the WINDOWS domain:
8407 $ smbclient //pogo/netlogon -U Administrator -W WINDOWS
8410 Now connect to the WINDOWS DC (e.g. CRYSTAL) as a Samba user:
8412 $ smbclient //crystal/netlogon -U root -W WINDOWS
8415 ######################################################################
8419 Beginning with Samba3.0.0beta3, winbindd has been given new account
8420 manage functionality equivalent to the 'add user script' family of
8421 smb.conf parameters. The idmap design has also been changed to
8422 centralize control of foreign SID lookups and matching to UNIX
8426 Brief Description of Changes
8427 ----------------------------
8429 1) The sid_to_uid() family of functions (smbd/uid.c) have been
8430 reverted to the 2.2.x design. This means that when resolving a
8431 SID to a UID or similar mapping:
8433 a) First consult winbindd
8434 b) perform a local lookup only if winbindd fails to
8435 return a successful answer
8437 There are some variations to this, but these two rules generally
8440 2) All idmap lookups have been moved into winbindd. This means that
8441 a server must run winbindd (and support NSS) in order to achieve
8442 any mappings of SID to dynamically allocated UNIX ids. This was
8443 a conscious design choice.
8445 3) (OBSOLETE) New functions have been added to winbindd to emulate
8446 the 'add user script' family of smbd functions without requiring
8447 that external scripts be defined. This functionality is controlled
8448 by the 'winbind enable local accounts' smb.conf parameter (enabled
8451 However, this account management functionality is only supported
8452 in a local tdb (winbindd_idmap.tdb). If these new UNIX accounts
8453 must be shared among multiple Samba servers (such as a PDC and BDCs),
8454 it will be necessary to define your own 'add user script', et. al.
8455 programs that place the accounts/groups in some form of directory
8456 such as NIS or LDAP. This requirement was deemed beyond the scope
8457 of winbind's account management functions. Solutions for
8458 distributing UNIX system information have been deployed and tested
8459 for many years. We saw no need to reinvent the wheel.
8461 4) A member of a Samba controlled domain running winbindd is now able
8462 to map domain users directly onto existing UNIX accounts while still
8463 automatically creating accounts for trusted users and groups. This
8464 behavior is controlled by the 'winbind trusted domains only' smb.conf
8465 parameter (disabled by default to provide 2.2.x winbind behavior).
8467 5) Group mapping support is wrapped in the local_XX_to_XX() functions
8468 in smbd/uid.c. The reason that group mappings are not included
8469 in winbindd is because the purpose of Samba's group map is to
8470 match any Windows SID with an existing UNIX group. These UNIX
8471 groups can be created by winbindd (see next section), but the
8472 SID<->gid mapping is retreived by smbd, not winbindd.
8478 * security = server running winbindd to allocate accounts on demand
8480 * Samba PDC running winbindd to handle the automatic creation of UNIX
8481 identities for machine trust accounts
8483 * Automtically creating UNIX user and groups when migrating a Windows NT
8484 4.0 PDC to a Samba PDC. Winbindd must be running when executing
8485 'net rpc vampire' for this to work.
