16 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23b
18 ===============================
20 This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is the version
21 that production Samba servers should be running for all current
22 bug-fixes. Please read the changes in this section and for the
23 original 3.0.23 release regarding new features and difference
24 in behavior from previous releases.
26 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.23b include:
28 o Ambiguity with unqualified names in smb.conf parameters
29 such as "force user" and "valid users".
30 o Errors in 'net ads join' caused by bad IP address in the list
31 of domain controllers.
32 o SMB signing errors in the client and server code.
33 o Domain join failures when using smbpasswd on a Samba PDC.
36 Member servers, domain accounts, and smb.conf
37 =============================================
39 Since Samba 3.0.8, it has been recommended that all domain accounts
40 listed in smb.conf on a member server be fully qualified with the
41 domain name. This is now a requirement. All unqualified names are
42 assumed to be local to the Unix host, either as part of the server's
43 local passdb or in the local system list of accounts (e.g. /etc/passwd
46 The reason for this change is that smbd has transitioned from
47 access checks based on string comparisons to token based
48 authorization. All names are resolved to a SID and they verified
49 against the logged on user's NT user token. Local names will
50 resolve to a local SID, while qualified domain names will resolve
51 to the appropriate domain SID.
53 If the member server is not running winbindd at all, domain
54 accounts will be implicitly mapped to local accounts and their
55 tokens will be modified appropriately to reflect the local
56 SID and group membership.
58 For example, the following share will restrict access to the
59 domain group "Linux Admins" and the local group srvadmin.
63 valid users = +"DOMAIN\Linux Admins" +srvadmin
65 Note that to restrict the [homes] share on a member server to the
66 owner of that directory, it is necessary to prefix the %S value
70 security = {domain,ads}

235 ==============================
236 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23
238 ==============================
240 There has been a substantial amount of cleanup work done during
241 this development cycle. We would like to thank both Coverity
242 (http://www.coverity.com/) and Klocwork (http://www.klocwork.com/)
243 for analyzing the Samba source code. As a result, this release
244 includes fixes for over 400 defects. The coverage was approximately
245 even with over 200 defects reported by each tool.
247 Thanks very much to those people who spent time testing the
248 release candidates and reported their findings. We would like to
249 especially thank Thomas Bork <tombork@web.de> for his numerous
250 reports. We believe that the final release is in much better shape
251 in large part due to his efforts.
253 New features in 3.0.23 include:
255 o Improved 'make test'
256 o New offline mode in winbindd.
257 o New Kerberos support for pam_winbind.so.
258 o New handling of unmapped users and groups.
259 o New non-root share management tools.
260 o Improved support for local and BUILTIN groups.
261 o Winbind IDMAP integration with RFC2307 schema objects supported
263 o Rewritten 'net ads join' to mimic Windows XP without requiring
264 administrative rights to join a domain.
267 User and Group changes
268 ======================
270 The user and group internal management routines have been
271 rewritten to prevent overlaps of assigned Relative Identifiers
272 (RIDs). In the past the has been a potential problem when either
273 manually mapping Unix groups with the 'net groupmap' command or
274 when migrating a Windows domain to a Samba domain using 'net rpc
277 Unmapped users are now assigned a SID in the S-1-22-1 domain and
278 unmapped groups are assigned a SID in the S-1-22-2 domain.
279 Previously they were assign a RID within the SAM on the Samba
280 server. For a DC this would have been under the authority of the
281 domain SID where as on a member server or standalone host, this
282 would have been under the authority of the local SAM (hint: net
285 The result is that any unmapped users or groups on an upgraded
286 Samba domain controller may be assigned a new SID. Because the
287 SID rather than a name is stored in Windows security descriptors,
288 this can cause a user to no longer have access to a resource for
289 example if a file was copied from a Samba file server to a local
290 NTFS partition. Any files stored on the Samba server itself will
291 continue to be accessible because Unix stores the Unix gid and not
292 the SID for authorization checks.
294 A further example will help illustrate the change. Assume that a
295 group named 'developers' exists with a Unix gid of 782 but this
296 user does not exist in Samba's group mapping table. it would be
297 perfectly normal for this group to be appear in an ACL editor.
298 Prior to 3.0.23, the group SID might appear as
299 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565. With 3.0.23, the
300 group SID would be reported as S-1-22-2-782. Any security
301 descriptors associated with files stored on an NTFS disk partition
302 would not allow access based on the group permissions if the user
303 was not a member of the
304 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565 group. Because this
305 group SID not reported in a user's token is S-1-22-2-782, Windows
306 would fail the authorization check even though both SIDs in some
307 respect referred to the same Unix group.
309 The current workaround is to create a manual domain group mapping
310 entry for the group 'developers' to point at the
311 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565 SID.
317 The "passdb backend" parameter no long accepts multiple backends
318 in a chaining configuration. Also be aware that the SQL and XML
319 based passdb modules have been removed in this release. More
320 information of external support for a SQL passdb module can be
321 found at http://pdbsql.sourceforge.net/.
324 Group Mapping Changes
325 =====================
327 The default mapping entries for groups such as "Domain Admins" are
328 no longer created when using an smbpasswd file or a tdbsam passdb
329 backend. This means that it is necessary to use 'net groupmap
330 add' rather than 'net groupmap modify' to set these entries.
331 This change has no effect on winbindd's IDmap functionality for
338 There has also been a minor update the Samba LDAP schema file. A
339 substring matching rule has been added to the sambaSID attribute
340 definition. For OpenLDAP servers, this will require the addition
341 of 'index sambaSID sub' to the slapd.conf configuration file. It
342 will be necessary to run slapindex after making this change. There
343 has been no change to actual data storage schema.

996 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.22
998 ==============================
1000 This is a security release of Samba. The Samba 3.0.21 release
1001 series (including the patch releases a through c) has been
1002 discovered to expose the clear text of the server's machine
1003 account credentials in the winbind log files when the log
1004 level is set to 5 or higher. This defect has been assigned
1005 the CVE number CAN-2006-1059.
1010 The machine trust account password is the secret shared
1011 between a domain controller and a specific member server.
1012 Access to the member server machine credentials allows
1013 an attacker to impersonate the server in the domain and
1014 gain access to additional information regarding domain
1017 The winbindd daemon included in Samba 3.0.21 and subsequent
1018 patch releases (3.0.21a-c) writes the clear text of server's
1019 machine credentials to its log file at level 5. The winbindd
1020 log files are world readable by default and often log files
1021 are requested on open mailing lists as tools used to debug
1022 server misconfigurations.
1024 This affects servers configured to use domain or ads security
1025 and possibly Samba domain controllers as well (if configured

1880 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.20a
1882 ===============================
1884 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.20a include:
1886 o Stability problems with winbindd.
1887 o Crash bugs caused by incompatibilities on 64-bit systems.
1888 o Missing files from directory listings on AIX servers
1889 o User Manager interoperability problems.
1890 o Minor build difficulties on various platforms such as
1891 Solaris and OpenBSD,
1894 Winbind, security = domain, and Active Directory
1895 ================================================
1897 Recent security updates for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 have
1898 changed the fashion in which user and group lists can be obtained
1899 from domain controllers. In short, the RPC mechanisms used by
1900 "security = domain" to retrieve users and groups is not compatible
1901 with these changes. The "security = ads" configuration is not
1902 affected by the Windows protocol changes.
1904 Samba developers are actively working to correct this problem in
1905 the 3.0.21 release. In the meantime, Administrators who are unable
1906 to migrate to "security = ads" and must continue using "security =
1907 domain", can define credentials to be used by winbindd for account
1908 enumeration by executing the following command as root.
1910 wbinfo --set-auth-user='DOMAIN\username%password'

2031 ==============================
2032 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.20
2034 ==============================
2036 Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.20 include:
2038 o Support for several new Win32 rpc pipes.
2039 o Improved support for OS/2 clients.
2040 o New 'net rpc service' tool for managing Win32 services.
2041 o Capability to set the owner on new files and directory
2042 based on the parent's ownership.
2043 o Experimental, asynchronous IO file serving support.
2044 o Completed Support for Microsoft Print Migrator.
2045 o New Winbind IDmap plugin (ad) for retrieving uid and gid
2046 from AD servers which maintain the SFU user and group
2048 o Rewritten support for POSIX pathnames when utilizing
2049 the Linux CIFS fs client.
2050 o New asynchronous winbindd.
2051 o Support for Microsoft Print Migrator.
2052 o New Windows NT registry file I/O library.
2053 o New user right (SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege) added.
2054 o New "net share migrate" options.
2057 What happened to 3.0.15 - 3.0.19?
2058 ==================================
2060 After some discussion it was deemed that the amount of changes
2061 going into the next Samba 3.0 release needed something to catch
2062 people's attention. Skipping several releases was chosen as
2063 the best solution with the least overhead. There will be no
2064 3.0.15 - 3.0.19 ever released. The next production release
2065 following 3.0.20 should be 3.0.21.
2067 The original announcement about the version number change can
2068 be found in the samba mailing list archives:
2070 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=samba&m=111721010206997&w=2
2073 Asynchronous Winbind Implementation
2074 ===================================
2076 Winbindd has been completely rewritten in this release to support
2077 an almost completely non-blocking, asynchronous request/reply
2078 model. This means that winbindd will scale much better in
2079 large domain environments and on high latency networks. Neither
2080 the client interface nor the command line tools (i.e. wbinfo) have
2081 changed in their calling conventions or syntax. However, due to
2082 internal structure changes, it is required (more so than normal)
2083 that you install the nss_winbind.so library included in this release.
2086 Support for Microsoft Print Migrator
2087 ====================================
2089 Samba 3.0.20 includes full support for migrating printers from
2090 Windows servers or other Samba servers via the Microsoft Print
2091 Migrator tool. Restoring printers requires a working "add printer
2092 command" defined in smb.conf. Current support also allows
2093 administrators to create a master list of printer drivers which
2094 can be restored in bulk on new (or existing) Samba installations.
2097 Asynchronous IO Support
2098 =======================
2100 Experimental support for async IO has been added to smbd for
2101 certain platforms. To enable this new feature, Samba must be
2102 compiled to include the --with-aio-support configure option.
2103 In addition, the "aio read size" and "aio write size" to non-zero
2104 values. See the smb.conf(5) man page for more details on these

3040 Large Directory Support
3041 =======================
3043 Samba 3.0.12pre1 introduces a specific mechanism for dealing
3044 with file services that frequently contain a large number of files
3045 per directory. Historically Samba's performance has suffered
3046 in such environments due to the translation from case
3047 insensitive lookups by Windows client to the case sensitive
3048 storage mechanisms used by UNIX filesystems.

3060 in source/include/libsmbclient.h. This change is not backwards
3061 compatible with applications linked against the libsmbclient.so
3062 library from Samba 3.0.11. However, it is compatible with all
3063 other Samba 3.0.x releases. This means that it will be most likely
3064 be necessary to recompile any applications linked against the
3065 3.0.11 version of the library.

3379 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.11
3381 ==============================
3383 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.11 include:
3385 o Crash in smbd when using CUPS printing.
3386 o Parsing error of other SIDs included in the user_info_3
3387 structure returned from domain controllers.
3388 o Inefficiencies when searching non-AD LDAP directories.
3389 o Failure to expand variables in user domain attributes
3390 in tdbsam and ldapsam.
3392 o Failure to retrieve certain attribute when migrating from
3393 a Windows DC to a Samba DC via 'net rpc vampire'.
3394 o Numerous printing bugs bugs including memory
3395 bloating on large/busy print servers.
3396 o Compatibility issues with Exchange 5.5 SP4.
3399 Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.11:
3401 o Winbindd performance improvements.
3402 o More 'net rpc vampire' functionality.
3403 o Support for the Windows privilege model to assign rights
3405 o New administrative options to the 'net rpc' command.
3412 If "ldap user suffix" or "ldap machine suffix" are defined in
3413 smb.conf, all user-accounts must reside below the user suffix,
3414 and all machine and inter-domain trust-accounts must be located
3415 below the machine suffix. Previous Samba releases would fall
3416 back to searching the 'ldap suffix' in some cases.
3423 Samba 3.0.11 supports the following assignable rights
3425 SeMachineAccountPrivilege Add machines to domain
3426 SePrintOperatorPrivilege Manage printers
3427 SeAddUsersPrivilege Add users and groups to the domain
3428 SeRemoteShutdownPrivilege Force shutdown from a remote system
3429 SeDiskOperatorPrivilege Manage disk shares
3431 These rights can be assigned to arbitrary users or groups
3432 via the 'net rpc rights grant/revoke' command. More details
3433 of Samba's privilege implementation can be found in the
3434 Samba-HOWTO-Collection.

3967 o Compile fixes for HP-UX
3968 o Fixes for the printer publishing code used when joined to
3970 o Incompatibilities with file system quotas.
3971 o Several bugs in the spoolss printing code and print system

3979 o Fix for CAN-2004-0882 -- possible buffer overrun in smbd.
3982 New features included in the 3.0.8 release are:
3984 o New migration functionality added the the net tool
3985 for files/directories, printers, and shares.
3986 o New experimental idmap backend for assigning uids/gids
3987 directly based on the user/group RID when acting as a
3988 member of single domain without any trusts.
3989 o Additional printer migration support for XP/2003 platforms.
3992 ===========================
3993 Change in Winbindd Behavior
3994 ===========================
3996 All usernames returned by winbindd are now converted to lower
3997 case for better consistency. This means any winbind installation
3998 relying on the winbind username will need to rename existing
3999 directories and/or files based on the username (%u and %U) to lower
4000 case (e.g. mv $name `echo $name | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`). This may
4001 include mail spool files, home directories, valid user lines in
4005 ======================
4006 Change in Username Map
4007 ======================
4009 Previous Samba releases would only support reading the fully qualified
4010 username (e.g. DOMAIN\user) from the username map when performing a
4011 Kerberos login from a client. However, when looking up a map
4012 entry for a user authenticated by NTLM[SSP], only the login name would be
4013 used for matches. This resulted in inconsistent behavior sometimes
4014 even on the same server.
4016 Samba 3.0.8 obeys the following rules when applying the username
4019 * When performing local authentication, the username map is
4020 applied to the login name before attempting to authenticate
4022 * When relying upon a external domain controller for validating
4023 authentication requests, smbd will apply the username map
4024 to the fully qualified username (i.e. DOMAIN\user) only
4025 after the user has been successfully authenticated.

4563 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.6
4565 =============================
4567 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.6 include:
4569 o Schannel failure in winbindd.
4570 o Numerous memory leaks.
4571 o Incompatibilities between the 'write list' and 'force user'
4573 o Premature optimization of the open_directory() internal
4574 function that broke tools such as the ArcServe backup
4575 agent, Macromedia HomeSite, and Robocopy.
4576 o Corrupt workgroup names in nmbd's browse.dat.
4577 o Sharing violation errors commonly seen when opening
4578 when serving Microsoft Office documents from a Samba
4580 o Browsing problems caused by an apostrophe (') in the
4581 computer's description field.
4582 o Problems creating special file types from UNIX CIFS
4583 clients and enabling 'unix extensions'.
4584 o Fix stalls in smbd caused by inaccessible LDAP servers.
4585 o Remove various memory leaks.
4586 o Fix issues in the password lockout feature.
4588 New features introduced in this release include:
4590 O Support symlinks created by CIFS clients which
4591 can be followed on the server.
4592 o Using a cups server other than localhost.
4593 o Maintaining the service principal entry in the system
4594 keytab for integration with other kerberized services.
4595 Please refer to the 'use Kerberos keytab' entry in
4596 smb.conf(5). When using the heimdal Kerberos libraries,
4597 you must also specify the following in /etc/krb5.conf:
4599 default_keytab_name = FILE:/etc/krb5.keytab
4600 o Support for maintaining individual printer names
4601 stored separately from the printer's sharename.
4602 o Support for maintaining user password history.
4603 o Support for honoring the logon times for user in a
4607 ============================================
4608 unix extensions = yes (default) and symlinks
4609 ============================================
4611 Beginning with Samba 3.0.6pre1 (formerly known as 3.0.5pre1),
4612 clients supporting the UNIX extensions to the CIFS protocol
4613 can create symlinks to absolute paths which will be **followed**
4614 by the server. This functionality has been requested in order
4615 to correctly support certain applications when the user's home
4616 directory is mounted using some type of CIFS client (e.g. the
4617 cifsvfs in the Linux 2.6 kernel).
4619 If this behavior is not acceptable for your production environment
4620 you can set 'wide links = no' in the specific share declaration in
4621 the server's smb.conf. Be aware that disabling wide link support
4622 out of a share in Samba may impact the server's performance due
4623 to the fact that smbd will now have to check each path additional
4624 times before traversing it.
4627 ========================
4628 Password History Support
4629 ========================
4631 The new password history feature allows smbd to check the new
4632 password in password change requests against a list of the user's
4633 previous passwords. The number of previous passwords to save can
4634 be set using pdbedit (4 in this example):
4636 root# pdbedit -P "password history" -C 4
4638 When using the ldapsam passdb backend, it is vital to secure the
4639 following attributes from access by non-administrative users:
4643 * sambaPasswordHistory
4645 You should refer to your directory server's documentation on how
4646 to implement this restriction.

5062 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.5
5064 =============================
5066 Please note that Samba 3.0.5 is identical to Samba 3.0.4 with
5067 the exception of correcting the two security issues outlined
5070 ######################## SECURITY RELEASE ########################
5072 Summary: Multiple Potential Buffer Overruns in Samba 3.0.x
5073 CVE ID: CAN-2004-0600, CAN-2004-0686
5074 (http://cve.mitre.org/)
5077 This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is the version
5078 that production Samba servers should be running for all current
5081 It has been confirmed that versions of Samba 3 prior to v3.0.4
5082 are vulnerable to two potential buffer overruns. The individual
5083 details are given below.
5089 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.2 and later
5091 The internal routine used by the Samba Web Administration
5092 Tool (SWAT v3.0.2 and later) to decode the base64 data
5093 during HTTP basic authentication is subject to a buffer
5094 overrun caused by an invalid base64 character. It is
5095 recommended that all Samba v3.0.2 or later installations
5096 running SWAT either (a) upgrade to v3.0.5, or (b) disable
5097 the swat administration service as a temporary workaround.
5099 This same code is used internally to decode the
5100 sambaMungedDial attribute value when using the ldapsam
5101 passdb backend. While we do not believe that the base64
5102 decoding routines used by the ldapsam passdb backend can
5103 be exploited, sites using an LDAP directory service with
5104 Samba are strongly encouraged to verify that the DIT only
5105 allows write access to sambaSamAccount attributes by a
5106 sufficiently authorized user.
5108 The Samba Team would like to heartily thank Evgeny Demidov
5109 for analyzing and reporting this bug.
5115 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.0 and later
5117 A buffer overrun has been located in the code used to support
5118 the 'mangling method = hash' smb.conf option. Please be aware
5119 that the default setting for this parameter is 'mangling method
5120 = hash2' and therefore not vulnerable.
5122 Affected Samba 3 installations can avoid this possible security
5123 bug by using the default hash2 mangling method. Server
5124 installations requiring the hash mangling method are encouraged
5125 to upgrade to Samba 3.0.5.

5698 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2a
5700 ==============================
5702 Samba 3.0.2a is a minor patch release for the 3.0.2 code base
5703 to address, in particular, a problem when using pdbedit to
5704 sanitize (--force-initialized-passwords) Samba's tdbsam
5705 backend. This is the latest stable release of Samba. This
5706 is the version that all production Samba servers should be
5707 running for all current bug-fixes.
5709 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
5711 Beginning with Samba 3.0.2, passwords for accounts with a last
5712 change time (LCT-XXX in smbpasswd, sambaPwdLastSet attribute in
5713 ldapsam, etc...) of zero (0) will be regarded as uninitialized
5714 strings. This will cause authentication to fail for such
5715 accounts. If you have valid passwords that meet this criteria,
5716 you must update the last change time to a non-zero value. If you
5717 do not, then 'pdbedit --force-initialized-passwords' will disable
5718 these accounts and reset the password hashes to a string of X's.
5720 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
5729 Please refer to the CVS log for the SAMBA_3_0 branch for complete
5730 details. The list of changes per contributor are as follows:
5733 o Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
5734 * Added paranoia checks in parsing code.
5737 o Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>
5738 * Ensure that changes to uninitialized passwords in ldapsam
5739 are written to the DIT.
5742 o Gerald (Jerry) Carter <jerry@samba.org>
5743 * Fixed iterator in tdbsam.
5744 * Fix bug that disabled accounts with a valid NT password
5745 hash, but no LanMan hash.
5748 o Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
5749 * Added missing nosetuid and noexec options.
5752 o Bostjan Golob <golob@gimb.org>
5753 * BUG 1046: Don't overwrite usernames of entries returned
5757 o Sebastian Krahmer <krahmer@suse.de>
5758 * Fixed potential crash bug in NTLMSSP parsing code.
5761 o Tim Potter <tpot@samba.org>

5771 =============================
5772 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2
5774 =============================
5776 It has been confirmed that previous versions of Samba 3.0 are
5777 susceptible to a password initialization bug that could grant an
5778 attacker unauthorized access to a user account created by the
5779 mksmbpasswd.sh shell script.
5781 The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
5782 has assigned the name CAN-2004-0082 to this issue.
5784 Samba administrators not wishing to upgrade to the current
5785 version should download the 3.0.2 release, build the pdbedit
5788 root# pdbedit-3.0.2 --force-initialized-passwords
5790 This will disable all accounts not possessing a valid password
5791 (e.g. the password field has been set a string of X's).
5793 Samba servers running 3.0.2 are not vulnerable to this bug
5794 regardless of whether or not pdbedit has been used to sanitize
5797 Some of the more visible bugs in 3.0.1 addressed in the 3.0.2
5800 o Joining a Samba domain from Pre-SP2 Windows 2000 clients.
5801 o Logging onto a Samba domain from Windows XP clients.
5802 o Problems with the %U and %u smb.conf variables in relation to
5803 Windows 9x/ME clients.
5804 o Kerberos failures due to an invalid in memory keytab detection
5806 o Updates to the ntlm_auth tool.
5807 o Fixes for various SMB signing errors.
5808 o Better separation of WINS and DNS queries for domain controllers.
5809 o Issues with nss_winbind FreeBSD and Solaris.
5810 o Several crash bugs in smbd and winbindd.
5811 o Output formatting fixes for smbclient for better compatibility
5812 with scripts based on the 2.2 version.

6252 'winbind trusted domains only = yes' (bug 680).
6253 o Remove code in idmap_ldap that searches the user suffix and group
6254 suffix. It's not needed and provides inconsistent functionality
6255 from the tdb backend.
6256 o Patch to handle munged dial string for Windows 2000 TSE.
6257 Thanks to Gaz de France, Direction de la Recherche, Service
6258 Informatique Métier for their supporting this work by Aurelien

6277 o Fix a handful of potential memory leaks in the LDAP code used
6278 by ldapsam[_compat] and the LDAP idmap backend.
6279 o Fix for pdbedit error code returns (bug 763).
6280 o Make sure we only enumerate group mapping entries (not
6281 /etc/group) even when doing local aliases.
6282 o Relax check on the pipe name in a dce/rpc bind response to work
6283 around issues with establishing trusts to a Windows 2003 domain.
6284 o Ensure we mangle names ending in '.' in hash2 mangling method.
6285 o Correct parsing issues with munged dial string.
6286 o Fix bugs in quota support for XFS.
6287 o Add a cleaner method for applications that need to provide

6289 know the winbindd pipe protocol.
6290 o Adds a variant of the winbindd_getgroups() call called
6291 winbindd_getusersids() that provides direct SID->SIDs listing of
6292 a users supplementary groups. This is enough to allow non-Samba
6293 applications to do ACL checking.
6294 o Make sure we don't append the 'ldap suffix' when writing out the
6295 'ldap XXX suffix' values in SWAT (bug 328).
6296 o Fix renames across file systems.

6384 The original 3.0.0 release notes follow
6385 =======================================
6386 WHATS NEW IN Samba 3.0.0
6388 =======================================
6394 1) Active Directory support. Samba 3.0 is now able to
6395 join a ADS realm as a member server and authenticate
6396 users using LDAP/Kerberos.
6398 2) Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate UNICODE on the wire
6399 and internally there is now a much better infrastructure for
6400 multi-byte and UNICODE character sets.
6402 3) New authentication system. The internal authentication system
6403 has been almost completely rewritten. Most of the changes are
6404 internal, but the new auth system is also very configurable.
6406 4) New default filename mangling system.
6408 5) A new "net" command has been added. It is somewhat similar to
6409 the "net" command in windows. Eventually we plan to replace
6410 numerous other utilities (such as smbpasswd) with subcommands
6413 6) Samba now negotiates NT-style status32 codes on the wire. This
6414 improves error handling a lot.
6416 7) Better Windows 2000/XP/2003 printing support including publishing
6417 printer attributes in active directory.
6419 8) New loadable module support for passdb backends and character
6422 9) New default dual-daemon winbindd support for better performance.
6424 10) Support for migrating from a Windows NT 4.0 domain to a Samba
6425 domain and maintaining user, group and domain SIDs.
6427 11) Support for establishing trust relationships with Windows NT 4.0
6430 12) Initial support for a distributed Winbind architecture using
6431 an LDAP directory for storing SID to uid/gid mappings.
6433 13) Major updates to the Samba documentation tree.
6435 14) Full support for client and server SMB signing to ensure
6436 compatibility with default Windows 2003 security settings.
6438 15) Improvement of ACL mapping features based on code donated by
6439 Andreas Grünbacher.
6442 Plus lots of other improvements!
6445 Additional Documentation
6446 ------------------------
6448 Please refer to Samba documentation tree (included in the docs/
6449 subdirectory) for extensive explanations of installing, configuring
6450 and maintaining Samba 3.0 servers and clients. It is advised to
6451 begin with the Samba-HOWTO-Collection for overviews and specific
6452 tasks (the current book is up to approximately 400 pages) and to
6453 refer to the various man pages for information on individual options.
6455 We are very glad to be able to include the second edition of
6456 "Using Samba" by Jay Ts, Robert Eckstein, and David Collier-Brown
6457 (O'Reilly & Associates) in this release. The book is available
6458 on-line at http://samba.org/samba/docs/ and is included with
6459 the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). Thanks to the authors and
6460 publisher for making "Using Samba" under the GNU Free Documentation
6464 ######################################################################
6465 Upgrading from a previous Samba 3.0 beta
6466 ########################################
6468 Beginning with Samba 3.0.0beta3, the RID allocation functions
6469 have been moved into winbindd. Previously these were handled
6470 by each passdb backend. This means that winbindd must be running
6471 to automatically allocate RIDs for users and/or groups. Otherwise,
6472 smbd will use the 2.2 algorithm for generating new RIDs.
6474 If you are using 'passdb backend = tdbsam' with a previous Samba
6475 3.0 beta release (or possibly alpha), it may be necessary to
6476 move the RID_COUNTER entry from /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
6477 to winbindd_idmap.tdb. To do this:
6479 1) Ensure that winbindd_idmap.tdb exists (launch winbindd at least
6481 2) build tdbtool by executing 'make tdbtool' in the source/tdb/
6483 3) run: (note that 'tdb>' is the tool's prompt for input)
6485 root# ./tdbtool /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
6486 tdb> show RID_COUNTER
6490 [000] 0A 52 00 00 .R.
6492 tdb> move RID_COUNTER /usr/local/samba/var/locks/winbindd_idmap.tdb
6496 If you are using 'passdb backend = ldapsam', it will be necessary to
6497 store idmap entries in the LDAP directory as well (i.e. idmap backend
6498 = ldap). Refer to the 'net idmap' command for more information on
6499 migrating SID<->UNIX id mappings from one backend to another.
6501 If the RID_COUNTER record does not exist, then these instructions are
6502 unneccessary and the new RID_COUNTER record will be correctly generated

6682 This section contains brief descriptions of any new databases
6683 introduced in Samba 3.0. Please remember to backup your existing
6684 ${lock directory}/*tdb before upgrading to Samba 3.0. Samba will
6685 upgrade databases as they are opened (if necessary), but downgrading
6686 from 3.0 to 2.2 is an unsupported path.
6688 Name Description Backup?
6689 ---- ----------- -------
6690 account_policy User policy settings yes
6691 gencache Generic caching db no
6692 group_mapping Mapping table from Windows yes
6693 groups/SID to unix groups
6694 winbindd_idmap ID map table from SIDS to UNIX yes
6696 namecache Name resolution cache entries no
6697 netsamlogon_cache Cache of NET_USER_INFO_3 structure no
6698 returned as part of a successful
6699 net_sam_logon request
6700 printing/*.tdb Cached output from 'lpq no
6701 command' created on a per print
6703 registry Read-only samba registry skeleton no
6704 that provides support for exporting
6705 various db tables via the winreg RPCs
6711 The following issues are known changes in behavior between Samba 2.2 and
6712 Samba 3.0 that may affect certain installations of Samba.
6714 1) When operating as a member of a Windows domain, Samba 2.2 would
6715 map any users authenticated by the remote DC to the 'guest account'
6716 if a uid could not be obtained via the getpwnam() call. Samba 3.0
6717 rejects the connection as NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. There is no
6718 current work around to re-establish the 2.2 behavior.
6720 2) When adding machines to a Samba 2.2 controlled domain, the
6721 'add user script' was used to create the UNIX identity of the
6722 machine trust account. Samba 3.0 introduces a new 'add machine
6723 script' that must be specified for this purpose. Samba 3.0 will
6724 not fall back to using the 'add user script' in the absence of
6725 an 'add machine script'
6728 ######################################################################
6729 Passdb Backends and Authentication
6730 ##################################
6732 There have been a few new changes that Samba administrators should be
6733 aware of when moving to Samba 3.0.
6735 1) encrypted passwords have been enabled by default in order to
6736 inter-operate better with out-of-the-box Windows client
6737 installations. This does mean that either (a) a samba account
6738 must be created for each user, or (b) 'encrypt passwords = no'
6739 must be explicitly defined in smb.conf.
6741 2) Inclusion of new 'security = ads' option for integration
6742 with an Active Directory domain using the native Windows
6743 Kerberos 5 and LDAP protocols.
6745 MIT Kerberos 1.3.1 supports the ARCFOUR-HMAC-MD5 encryption
6746 type which is neccessary for servers on which the
6747 administrator password has not been changed, or Kerberos-enabled
6748 SMB connections to servers that require Kerberos SMB signing.
6749 Besides this one difference, either MIT or Heimdal Kerberos
6750 distributions are usable by Samba 3.0.
6753 Samba 3.0 also includes the possibility of setting up chains
6754 of authentication methods (auth methods) and account storage
6755 backends (passdb backend). Please refer to the smb.conf(5)
6756 man page for details. While both parameters assume sane default
6757 values, it is likely that you will need to understand what the
6758 values actually mean in order to ensure Samba operates correctly.
6760 The recommended passdb backends at this time are
6762 * smbpasswd - 2.2 compatible flat file format
6763 * tdbsam - attribute rich database intended as an smbpasswd
6764 replacement for stand alone servers
6765 * ldapsam - attribute rich account storage and retrieval
6766 backend utilizing an LDAP directory.
6767 * ldapsam_compat - a 2.2 backward compatible LDAP account
6770 Certain functions of the smbpasswd(8) tool have been split between the
6771 new smbpasswd(8) utility, the net(8) tool, and the new pdbedit(8)
6772 utility. See the respective man pages for details.
6775 ######################################################################
6779 This section outlines the new features affecting Samba / LDAP
6785 A new object class (sambaSamAccount) has been introduced to replace
6786 the old sambaAccount. This change aids us in the renaming of
6787 attributes to prevent clashes with attributes from other vendors.
6788 There is a conversion script (examples/LDAP/convertSambaAccount) to
6789 modify and LDIF file to the new schema.
6793 $ ldapsearch .... -b "ou=people,dc=..." > sambaAcct.ldif
6794 $ convertSambaAccount --sid=<Domain SID> \
6795 --input=sambaAcct.ldif --output=sambaSamAcct.ldif \
6796 --changetype=[modify|add]
6798 The <DOM SID> can be obtained by running 'net getlocalsid
6799 <DOMAINNAME>' on the Samba PDC as root. The changetype determines
6800 the format of the generated LDIF output--either create new entries
6801 or modify existing entries.
6803 The old sambaAccount schema may still be used by specifying the
6804 "ldapsam_compat" passdb backend. However, the sambaAccount and
6805 associated attributes have been moved to the historical section of
6806 the schema file and must be uncommented before use if needed.
6807 The 2.2 object class declaration for a sambaAccount has not changed
6808 in the 3.0 samba.schema file.
6810 Other new object classes and their uses include:
6812 * sambaDomain - domain information used to allocate rids
6813 for users and groups as necessary. The attributes are added
6814 in 'ldap suffix' directory entry automatically if
6815 an idmap uid/gid range has been set and the 'ldapsam'
6816 passdb backend has been selected.
6818 * sambaGroupMapping - an object representing the
6819 relationship between a posixGroup and a Windows
6820 group/SID. These entries are stored in the 'ldap
6821 group suffix' and managed by the 'net groupmap' command.
6823 * sambaUnixIdPool - created in the 'ldap idmap suffix' entry
6824 automatically and contains the next available 'idmap uid' and
6827 * sambaIdmapEntry - object storing a mapping between a
6828 SID and a UNIX uid/gid. These objects are created by the
6829 idmap_ldap module as needed.
6831 * sambaSidEntry - object representing a SID alone, as a Structural
6832 class on which to build the sambaIdmapEntry.
6835 New Suffix for Searching
6836 ------------------------
6838 The following new smb.conf parameters have been added to aid in directing
6839 certain LDAP queries when 'passdb backend = ldapsam://...' has been
6842 * ldap suffix - used to search for user and computer accounts
6843 * ldap user suffix - used to store user accounts
6844 * ldap machine suffix - used to store machine trust accounts
6845 * ldap group suffix - location of posixGroup/sambaGroupMapping entries
6846 * ldap idmap suffix - location of sambaIdmapEntry objects
6848 If an 'ldap suffix' is defined, it will be appended to all of the
6849 remaining sub-suffix parameters. In this case, the order of the suffix
6850 listings in smb.conf is important. Always place the 'ldap suffix' first
6853 Due to a limitation in Samba's smb.conf parsing, you should not surround
6854 the DN's with quotation marks.
6860 Samba 3.0 supports an ldap backend for the idmap subsystem. The
6861 following options would inform Samba that the idmap table should be
6862 stored on the directory server onterose in the "ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,
6867 idmap backend = ldap:ldap://onterose/
6868 ldap idmap suffix = ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,dc=org
6869 idmap uid = 40000-50000
6870 idmap gid = 40000-50000
6872 This configuration allows winbind installations on multiple servers to
6873 share a uid/gid number space, thus avoiding the interoperability problems
6874 with NFS that were present in Samba 2.2.

6879 Trust Relationships and a Samba Domain
6880 ######################################
6882 Samba 3.0.0beta2 is able to utilize winbindd as the means of
6883 allocating uids and gids to trusted users and groups. More
6884 information regarding Samba's support for establishing trust
6885 relationships can be found in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection included
6886 in the docs/ directory of this release.
6888 First create your Samba PDC and ensure that everything is
6889 working correctly before moving on the trusts.
6891 To establish Samba as the trusting domain (named SAMBA) from a Windows NT
6892 4.0 domain named WINDOWS:
6894 1) create the trust account for SAMBA in "User Manager for Domains"
6895 2) connect the trust from the Samba domain using
6896 'net rpc trustdom establish GLASS'
6898 To create a trustlationship with SAMBA as the trusted domain:
6900 1) create the initial trust account for GLASS using
6901 'smbpasswd -a -i GLASS'. You may need to create a UNIX
6902 account for GLASS$ prior to this step (depending on your
6903 local configuration).
6904 2) connect the trust from a WINDOWS DC using "User Manager
6907 Now join winbindd on the Samba PDC to the SAMBA domain using
6908 the normal steps for adding a Samba server to an NT4 domain:
6909 (note that smbd & nmbd must be running at this point)
6911 root# net rpc join -U root
6912 Password: <enter root password from smbpasswd file here>
6914 Start winbindd and test the join with 'wbinfo -t'.
6916 Now test the trust relationship by connecting to the SAMBA DC
6917 (e.g. POGO) as a user from the WINDOWS domain:
6919 $ smbclient //pogo/netlogon -U Administrator -W WINDOWS
6922 Now connect to the WINDOWS DC (e.g. CRYSTAL) as a Samba user:
6924 $ smbclient //crystal/netlogon -U root -W WINDOWS
6927 ######################################################################
6931 Beginning with Samba3.0.0beta3, winbindd has been given new account
6932 manage functionality equivalent to the 'add user script' family of
6933 smb.conf parameters. The idmap design has also been changed to
6934 centralize control of foreign SID lookups and matching to UNIX
6938 Brief Description of Changes
6939 ----------------------------
6941 1) The sid_to_uid() family of functions (smbd/uid.c) have been
6942 reverted to the 2.2.x design. This means that when resolving a
6943 SID to a UID or similar mapping:
6945 a) First consult winbindd
6946 b) perform a local lookup only if winbindd fails to
6947 return a successful answer
6949 There are some variations to this, but these two rules generally
6952 2) All idmap lookups have been moved into winbindd. This means that
6953 a server must run winbindd (and support NSS) in order to achieve
6954 any mappings of SID to dynamically allocated UNIX ids. This was
6955 a conscious design choice.
6957 3) (OBSOLETE) New functions have been added to winbindd to emulate
6958 the 'add user script' family of smbd functions without requiring
6959 that external scripts be defined. This functionality is controlled
6960 by the 'winbind enable local accounts' smb.conf parameter (enabled
6963 However, this account management functionality is only supported
6964 in a local tdb (winbindd_idmap.tdb). If these new UNIX accounts
6965 must be shared among multiple Samba servers (such as a PDC and BDCs),
6966 it will be necessary to define your own 'add user script', et. al.
6967 programs that place the accounts/groups in some form of directory
6968 such as NIS or LDAP. This requirement was deemed beyond the scope
6969 of winbind's account management functions. Solutions for
6970 distributing UNIX system information have been deployed and tested
6971 for many years. We saw no need to reinvent the wheel.
6973 4) A member of a Samba controlled domain running winbindd is now able
6974 to map domain users directly onto existing UNIX accounts while still
6975 automatically creating accounts for trusted users and groups. This
6976 behavior is controlled by the 'winbind trusted domains only' smb.conf
6977 parameter (disabled by default to provide 2.2.x winbind behavior).
6979 5) Group mapping support is wrapped in the local_XX_to_XX() functions
6980 in smbd/uid.c. The reason that group mappings are not included
6981 in winbindd is because the purpose of Samba's group map is to
6982 match any Windows SID with an existing UNIX group. These UNIX
6983 groups can be created by winbindd (see next section), but the
6984 SID<->gid mapping is retreived by smbd, not winbindd.
6990 * security = server running winbindd to allocate accounts on demand
6992 * Samba PDC running winbindd to handle the automatic creation of UNIX
6993 identities for machine trust accounts
6995 * Automtically creating UNIX user and groups when migrating a Windows NT
6996 4.0 PDC to a Samba PDC. Winbindd must be running when executing
6997 'net rpc vampire' for this to work.
