2 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23
4 ==============================
6 This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is the version
7 that production Samba servers should be running for all current
8 bug-fixes. Please read the changes in this section for details on
9 new features and difference in behavior from previous releases.
11 There has been a substantial amount of cleanup work done during
12 this development cycle. We would like to thank both Coverity
13 (http://www.coverity.com/) and Klocwork (http://www.klocwork.com/)
14 for analyzing the Samba source code. As a result, this release
15 includes fixes for over 400 defects. The coverage was approximately
16 even with over 200 defects reported by each tool.
18 Thanks very much to those people who spent time testing the
19 release candidates and reported their findings. We would like to
20 especially thank Thomas Bork <tombork@web.de> for his numerous
21 reports. We believe that the final release is in much better shape
22 in large part due to his efforts.
24 New features in 3.0.23 include:
26 o Improved 'make test'
27 o New offline mode in winbindd.
28 o New Kerberos support for pam_winbind.so.
29 o New handling of unmapped users and groups.
30 o New non-root share management tools.
31 o Improved support for local and BUILTIN groups.
32 o Winbind IDMAP integration with RFC2307 schema objects supported
34 o Rewritten 'net ads join' to mimic Windows XP without requiring
35 administrative rights to join a domain.
38 User and Group changes
39 ======================
41 The user and group internal management routines have been
42 rewritten to prevent overlaps of assigned Relative Identifiers
43 (RIDs). In the past the has been a potential problem when either
44 manually mapping Unix groups with the 'net groupmap' command or
45 when migrating a Windows domain to a Samba domain using 'net rpc
48 Unmapped users are now assigned a SID in the S-1-22-1 domain and
49 unmapped groups are assigned a SID in the S-1-22-2 domain.
50 Previously they were assign a RID within the SAM on the Samba
51 server. For a DC this would have been under the authority of the
52 domain SID where as on a member server or standalone host, this
53 would have been under the authority of the local SAM (hint: net
56 The result is that any unmapped users or groups on an upgraded
57 Samba domain controller may be assigned a new SID. Because the
58 SID rather than a name is stored in Windows security descriptors,
59 this can cause a user to no longer have access to a resource for
60 example if a file was copied from a Samba file server to a local
61 NTFS partition. Any files stored on the Samba server itself will
62 continue to be accessible because Unix stores the Unix gid and not
63 the SID for authorization checks.
65 A further example will help illustrate the change. Assume that a
66 group named 'developers' exists with a Unix gid of 782 but this
67 user does not exist in Samba's group mapping table. it would be
68 perfectly normal for this group to be appear in an ACL editor.
69 Prior to 3.0.23, the group SID might appear as
70 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565. With 3.0.23, the
71 group SID would be reported as S-1-22-2-782. Any security
72 descriptors associated with files stored on an NTFS disk partition
73 would not allow access based on the group permissions if the user
74 was not a member of the
75 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565 group. Because this
76 group SID not reported in a user's token is S-1-22-2-782, Windows
77 would fail the authorization check even though both SIDs in some
78 respect referred to the same Unix group.
80 The current workaround is to create a manual domain group mapping
81 entry for the group 'developers' to point at the
82 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565 SID.
88 The "passdb backend" parameter no long accepts multiple backends
89 in a chaining configuration. Also be aware that the SQL and XML
90 based passdb modules have been removed in this release. More
91 information of external support for a SQL passdb module can be
92 found at http://pdbsql.sourceforge.net/.
98 The default mapping entries for groups such as "Domain Admins" are
99 no longer created when using an smbpasswd file or a tdbsam passdb
100 backend. This means that it is necessary to use 'net groupmap
101 add' rather than 'net groupmap modify' to set these entries.
102 This change has no effect on winbindd's IDmap functionality for
109 There has also been a minor update the Samba LDAP schema file. A
110 substring matching rule has been added to the sambaSID attribute
111 definition. For OpenLDAP servers, this will require the addition
112 of 'index sambaSID sub' to the slapd.conf configuration file. It
113 will be necessary to run slapindex after making this change. There
114 has been no change to actual data storage schema.

790 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.22
792 ==============================
794 This is a security release of Samba. The Samba 3.0.21 release
795 series (including the patch releases a through c) has been
796 discovered to expose the clear text of the server's machine
797 account credentials in the winbind log files when the log
798 level is set to 5 or higher. This defect has been assigned
799 the CVE number CAN-2006-1059.
804 The machine trust account password is the secret shared
805 between a domain controller and a specific member server.
806 Access to the member server machine credentials allows
807 an attacker to impersonate the server in the domain and
808 gain access to additional information regarding domain
811 The winbindd daemon included in Samba 3.0.21 and subsequent
812 patch releases (3.0.21a-c) writes the clear text of server's
813 machine credentials to its log file at level 5. The winbindd
814 log files are world readable by default and often log files
815 are requested on open mailing lists as tools used to debug
816 server misconfigurations.
818 This affects servers configured to use domain or ads security
819 and possibly Samba domain controllers as well (if configured

1674 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.20a
1676 ===============================
1678 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.20a include:
1680 o Stability problems with winbindd.
1681 o Crash bugs caused by incompatibilities on 64-bit systems.
1682 o Missing files from directory listings on AIX servers
1683 o User Manager interoperability problems.
1684 o Minor build difficulties on various platforms such as
1685 Solaris and OpenBSD,
1688 Winbind, security = domain, and Active Directory
1689 ================================================
1691 Recent security updates for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 have
1692 changed the fashion in which user and group lists can be obtained
1693 from domain controllers. In short, the RPC mechanisms used by
1694 "security = domain" to retrieve users and groups is not compatible
1695 with these changes. The "security = ads" configuration is not
1696 affected by the Windows protocol changes.
1698 Samba developers are actively working to correct this problem in
1699 the 3.0.21 release. In the meantime, Administrators who are unable
1700 to migrate to "security = ads" and must continue using "security =
1701 domain", can define credentials to be used by winbindd for account
1702 enumeration by executing the following command as root.

1851 What happened to 3.0.15 - 3.0.19?
1852 ==================================
1854 After some discussion it was deemed that the amount of changes
1855 going into the next Samba 3.0 release needed something to catch
1856 people's attention. Skipping several releases was chosen as
1857 the best solution with the least overhead. There will be no
1858 3.0.15 - 3.0.19 ever released. The next production release
1859 following 3.0.20 should be 3.0.21.
1861 The original announcement about the version number change can
1862 be found in the samba mailing list archives:

1870 Winbindd has been completely rewritten in this release to support
1871 an almost completely non-blocking, asynchronous request/reply
1872 model. This means that winbindd will scale much better in
1873 large domain environments and on high latency networks. Neither
1874 the client interface nor the command line tools (i.e. wbinfo) have
1875 changed in their calling conventions or syntax. However, due to
1876 internal structure changes, it is required (more so than normal)
1877 that you install the nss_winbind.so library included in this release.
1880 Support for Microsoft Print Migrator
1881 ====================================
1883 Samba 3.0.20 includes full support for migrating printers from
1884 Windows servers or other Samba servers via the Microsoft Print
1885 Migrator tool. Restoring printers requires a working "add printer
1886 command" defined in smb.conf. Current support also allows
1887 administrators to create a master list of printer drivers which
1888 can be restored in bulk on new (or existing) Samba installations.
1891 Asynchronous IO Support
1892 =======================
1894 Experimental support for async IO has been added to smbd for
1895 certain platforms. To enable this new feature, Samba must be
1896 compiled to include the --with-aio-support configure option.
1897 In addition, the "aio read size" and "aio write size" to non-zero
1898 values. See the smb.conf(5) man page for more details on these

2799 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.12
2801 ==============================
2803 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.12 include:
2805 o Winbind failures when using 'disable netbios = yes'
2806 o Failure to establish a trust relationship via 'net rpc trust
2808 o Various portability & compiler issues.
2809 o Read only file deletion failure caused by new delete semantics
2810 in Windows XP SP2 and the MS 04-044 security hotfix.
2811 o Error messages from shared Excel workbooks residing on Samba
2813 o Missing files in the output of smbclient -c 'dir' when run

2818 Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.12:
2820 o Performance enhancements when serving directories containing
2821 large number of files.
2822 o MS-DFS support added to smbclient.
2823 o More performance improvements when using Samba/OpenLDAP based

2825 o Support for the Novell NDS universal password when using the
2826 ldapsam passdb backend.

2828 replace 'smbpasswd {-a,-x} -i'.
2829 o New libsmbclient functionality.
2833 =======================
2834 Large Directory Support
2835 =======================
2837 Samba 3.0.12pre1 introduces a specific mechanism for dealing
2838 with file services that frequently contain a large number of files
2839 per directory. Historically Samba's performance has suffered
2840 in such environments due to the translation from case
2841 insensitive lookups by Windows client to the case sensitive
2842 storage mechanisms used by UNIX filesystems.
2844 Configuration details along with a short HOWTO can be found at:
2846 http://www.samba.org/samba/ftp/HOWTO/Samba-LargeDirectory-HOWTO
2849 ==================================
2850 libsmbclient Binary Compatibility
2851 ==================================
2853 Please note that a change has been made to the _SMBCCTX structure
2854 in source/include/libsmbclient.h. This change is not backwards
2855 compatible with applications linked against the libsmbclient.so
2856 library from Samba 3.0.11. However, it is compatible with all
2857 other Samba 3.0.x releases. This means that it will be most likely
2858 be necessary to recompile any applications linked against the
2859 3.0.11 version of the library.

3173 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.11
3175 ==============================
3177 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.11 include:
3179 o Crash in smbd when using CUPS printing.
3180 o Parsing error of other SIDs included in the user_info_3
3181 structure returned from domain controllers.
3182 o Inefficiencies when searching non-AD LDAP directories.
3183 o Failure to expand variables in user domain attributes
3184 in tdbsam and ldapsam.
3186 o Failure to retrieve certain attribute when migrating from
3187 a Windows DC to a Samba DC via 'net rpc vampire'.
3188 o Numerous printing bugs bugs including memory
3189 bloating on large/busy print servers.
3190 o Compatibility issues with Exchange 5.5 SP4.
3193 Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.11:
3195 o Winbindd performance improvements.
3196 o More 'net rpc vampire' functionality.
3197 o Support for the Windows privilege model to assign rights
3199 o New administrative options to the 'net rpc' command.
3206 If "ldap user suffix" or "ldap machine suffix" are defined in
3207 smb.conf, all user-accounts must reside below the user suffix,
3208 and all machine and inter-domain trust-accounts must be located
3209 below the machine suffix. Previous Samba releases would fall
3210 back to searching the 'ldap suffix' in some cases.
3217 Samba 3.0.11 supports the following assignable rights
3219 SeMachineAccountPrivilege Add machines to domain
3220 SePrintOperatorPrivilege Manage printers
3221 SeAddUsersPrivilege Add users and groups to the domain
3222 SeRemoteShutdownPrivilege Force shutdown from a remote system
3223 SeDiskOperatorPrivilege Manage disk shares
3225 These rights can be assigned to arbitrary users or groups
3226 via the 'net rpc rights grant/revoke' command. More details
3227 of Samba's privilege implementation can be found in the
3228 Samba-HOWTO-Collection.

3761 o Compile fixes for HP-UX
3762 o Fixes for the printer publishing code used when joined to
3764 o Incompatibilities with file system quotas.
3765 o Several bugs in the spoolss printing code and print system

3778 o New migration functionality added the the net tool
3779 for files/directories, printers, and shares.
3780 o New experimental idmap backend for assigning uids/gids

3782 member of single domain without any trusts.
3783 o Additional printer migration support for XP/2003 platforms.
3786 ===========================
3787 Change in Winbindd Behavior
3788 ===========================
3790 All usernames returned by winbindd are now converted to lower
3791 case for better consistency. This means any winbind installation
3792 relying on the winbind username will need to rename existing
3793 directories and/or files based on the username (%u and %U) to lower
3794 case (e.g. mv $name `echo $name | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`). This may
3795 include mail spool files, home directories, valid user lines in
3799 ======================
3800 Change in Username Map
3801 ======================
3803 Previous Samba releases would only support reading the fully qualified
3804 username (e.g. DOMAIN\user) from the username map when performing a
3805 Kerberos login from a client. However, when looking up a map
3806 entry for a user authenticated by NTLM[SSP], only the login name would be
3807 used for matches. This resulted in inconsistent behavior sometimes
3808 even on the same server.
3810 Samba 3.0.8 obeys the following rules when applying the username
3813 * When performing local authentication, the username map is
3814 applied to the login name before attempting to authenticate
3816 * When relying upon a external domain controller for validating
3817 authentication requests, smbd will apply the username map
3818 to the fully qualified username (i.e. DOMAIN\user) only
3819 after the user has been successfully authenticated.

4357 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.6
4359 =============================
4361 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.6 include:
4363 o Schannel failure in winbindd.
4364 o Numerous memory leaks.
4365 o Incompatibilities between the 'write list' and 'force user'
4367 o Premature optimization of the open_directory() internal
4368 function that broke tools such as the ArcServe backup
4369 agent, Macromedia HomeSite, and Robocopy.
4370 o Corrupt workgroup names in nmbd's browse.dat.
4371 o Sharing violation errors commonly seen when opening
4372 when serving Microsoft Office documents from a Samba
4374 o Browsing problems caused by an apostrophe (') in the
4375 computer's description field.
4376 o Problems creating special file types from UNIX CIFS
4377 clients and enabling 'unix extensions'.
4378 o Fix stalls in smbd caused by inaccessible LDAP servers.
4379 o Remove various memory leaks.
4380 o Fix issues in the password lockout feature.
4382 New features introduced in this release include:
4384 O Support symlinks created by CIFS clients which
4385 can be followed on the server.
4386 o Using a cups server other than localhost.
4387 o Maintaining the service principal entry in the system
4388 keytab for integration with other kerberized services.
4389 Please refer to the 'use Kerberos keytab' entry in
4390 smb.conf(5). When using the heimdal Kerberos libraries,
4391 you must also specify the following in /etc/krb5.conf:
4393 default_keytab_name = FILE:/etc/krb5.keytab
4394 o Support for maintaining individual printer names
4395 stored separately from the printer's sharename.
4396 o Support for maintaining user password history.
4397 o Support for honoring the logon times for user in a
4401 ============================================
4402 unix extensions = yes (default) and symlinks
4403 ============================================
4405 Beginning with Samba 3.0.6pre1 (formerly known as 3.0.5pre1),
4406 clients supporting the UNIX extensions to the CIFS protocol
4407 can create symlinks to absolute paths which will be **followed**
4408 by the server. This functionality has been requested in order
4409 to correctly support certain applications when the user's home
4410 directory is mounted using some type of CIFS client (e.g. the
4411 cifsvfs in the Linux 2.6 kernel).
4413 If this behavior is not acceptable for your production environment
4414 you can set 'wide links = no' in the specific share declaration in
4415 the server's smb.conf. Be aware that disabling wide link support
4416 out of a share in Samba may impact the server's performance due
4417 to the fact that smbd will now have to check each path additional
4418 times before traversing it.
4421 ========================
4422 Password History Support
4423 ========================
4425 The new password history feature allows smbd to check the new
4426 password in password change requests against a list of the user's
4427 previous passwords. The number of previous passwords to save can
4428 be set using pdbedit (4 in this example):
4430 root# pdbedit -P "password history" -C 4
4432 When using the ldapsam passdb backend, it is vital to secure the
4433 following attributes from access by non-administrative users:
4437 * sambaPasswordHistory
4439 You should refer to your directory server's documentation on how
4440 to implement this restriction.

4856 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.5
4858 =============================
4860 Please note that Samba 3.0.5 is identical to Samba 3.0.4 with
4861 the exception of correcting the two security issues outlined
4864 ######################## SECURITY RELEASE ########################
4866 Summary: Multiple Potential Buffer Overruns in Samba 3.0.x
4867 CVE ID: CAN-2004-0600, CAN-2004-0686
4868 (http://cve.mitre.org/)
4871 This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is the version
4872 that production Samba servers should be running for all current
4875 It has been confirmed that versions of Samba 3 prior to v3.0.4
4876 are vulnerable to two potential buffer overruns. The individual
4877 details are given below.
4883 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.2 and later
4885 The internal routine used by the Samba Web Administration
4886 Tool (SWAT v3.0.2 and later) to decode the base64 data
4887 during HTTP basic authentication is subject to a buffer
4888 overrun caused by an invalid base64 character. It is
4889 recommended that all Samba v3.0.2 or later installations
4890 running SWAT either (a) upgrade to v3.0.5, or (b) disable
4891 the swat administration service as a temporary workaround.
4893 This same code is used internally to decode the
4894 sambaMungedDial attribute value when using the ldapsam
4895 passdb backend. While we do not believe that the base64
4896 decoding routines used by the ldapsam passdb backend can
4897 be exploited, sites using an LDAP directory service with
4898 Samba are strongly encouraged to verify that the DIT only
4899 allows write access to sambaSamAccount attributes by a
4900 sufficiently authorized user.
4902 The Samba Team would like to heartily thank Evgeny Demidov
4903 for analyzing and reporting this bug.
4909 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.0 and later
4911 A buffer overrun has been located in the code used to support
4912 the 'mangling method = hash' smb.conf option. Please be aware
4913 that the default setting for this parameter is 'mangling method
4914 = hash2' and therefore not vulnerable.
4916 Affected Samba 3 installations can avoid this possible security
4917 bug by using the default hash2 mangling method. Server
4918 installations requiring the hash mangling method are encouraged
4919 to upgrade to Samba 3.0.5.

5505 Beginning with Samba 3.0.2, passwords for accounts with a last
5506 change time (LCT-XXX in smbpasswd, sambaPwdLastSet attribute in
5507 ldapsam, etc...) of zero (0) will be regarded as uninitialized
5508 strings. This will cause authentication to fail for such
5509 accounts. If you have valid passwords that meet this criteria,
5510 you must update the last change time to a non-zero value. If you
5511 do not, then 'pdbedit --force-initialized-passwords' will disable
5512 these accounts and reset the password hashes to a string of X's.

5566 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2
5568 =============================
5570 It has been confirmed that previous versions of Samba 3.0 are
5571 susceptible to a password initialization bug that could grant an
5572 attacker unauthorized access to a user account created by the
5573 mksmbpasswd.sh shell script.
5575 The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
5576 has assigned the name CAN-2004-0082 to this issue.
5578 Samba administrators not wishing to upgrade to the current
5579 version should download the 3.0.2 release, build the pdbedit
5582 root# pdbedit-3.0.2 --force-initialized-passwords
5584 This will disable all accounts not possessing a valid password
5585 (e.g. the password field has been set a string of X's).
5587 Samba servers running 3.0.2 are not vulnerable to this bug
5588 regardless of whether or not pdbedit has been used to sanitize
5591 Some of the more visible bugs in 3.0.1 addressed in the 3.0.2
5594 o Joining a Samba domain from Pre-SP2 Windows 2000 clients.
5595 o Logging onto a Samba domain from Windows XP clients.
5596 o Problems with the %U and %u smb.conf variables in relation to
5597 Windows 9x/ME clients.
5598 o Kerberos failures due to an invalid in memory keytab detection
5600 o Updates to the ntlm_auth tool.
5601 o Fixes for various SMB signing errors.
5602 o Better separation of WINS and DNS queries for domain controllers.
5603 o Issues with nss_winbind FreeBSD and Solaris.
5604 o Several crash bugs in smbd and winbindd.
5605 o Output formatting fixes for smbclient for better compatibility
5606 with scripts based on the 2.2 version.

6078 o Ensure we mangle names ending in '.' in hash2 mangling method.
6079 o Correct parsing issues with munged dial string.
6080 o Fix bugs in quota support for XFS.
6081 o Add a cleaner method for applications that need to provide
6082 name->SID mappings to do this via NSS rather than having to
6083 know the winbindd pipe protocol.
6084 o Adds a variant of the winbindd_getgroups() call called
6085 winbindd_getusersids() that provides direct SID->SIDs listing of
6086 a users supplementary groups. This is enough to allow non-Samba
6087 applications to do ACL checking.
6088 o Make sure we don't append the 'ldap suffix' when writing out the
6089 'ldap XXX suffix' values in SWAT (bug 328).
6090 o Fix renames across file systems.
6091 o Ensure that items in a list of strings containing whitespace are
6092 written out surrounded by single quotes. This means that both
6093 double and single quotes are now used to surround strings in
6095 o Enable SWAT to correctly determine if winbindd is running (bug
6097 o Include WWW-Authenticate field in 401 response for bad auth
6099 o Add support for NTLM2 (NTLMv2 session security).
6100 o Add support for variable-length session keys.

6109 o Change the name of the job passed off to cups from "Test Page"
6110 to "smbprn.00000033 Test Page" so that we can get the smb
6111 jobid back. This allow users to delete jobs with cups printing
6112 backend (partial work on bug 770).
6113 o Fix build of winbindd with static pdb modules.
6114 o Retrieve the correct ACL group bits if the file has an ACL
6116 o Implement "net rpc group members": Get members of a domain group
6117 in human-readable format.
6118 o Add MacOSX (Darwin) specific charset module code.
6119 o Use samr_dispinfo(level == 1) for enumerating domain users so we
6120 can include the full name in gecos field (bug 587).
6121 o Add support for winbind's NSS library on FeeeBSD 5.1 (bug 797).

6137 this call whether we have a complete PDU or not; fixes bug
6138 with multiple PDU request rpc's broken over SMBwriteX calls
6140 o Fix incorrect smb flags2 for connections to pre-NT servers
6141 (causes smbclient to fail to OS2 for example) (bug 821).
6142 o Update version string in smbldap-tools Makefile to 0.8.2.
6143 o Correct a problem with "net rpc vampire" mis-parsing the
6144 alias member info reply.
6145 o Ensure the ${libdir} is created by the installclientlib script.
6146 o Fix detection of Windows 2003 client architecture in the smb.conf

6178 The original 3.0.0 release notes follow
6179 =======================================
6180 WHATS NEW IN Samba 3.0.0
6182 =======================================
6188 1) Active Directory support. Samba 3.0 is now able to
6189 join a ADS realm as a member server and authenticate
6190 users using LDAP/Kerberos.
6192 2) Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate UNICODE on the wire
6193 and internally there is now a much better infrastructure for
6194 multi-byte and UNICODE character sets.
6196 3) New authentication system. The internal authentication system
6197 has been almost completely rewritten. Most of the changes are
6198 internal, but the new auth system is also very configurable.
6200 4) New default filename mangling system.
6202 5) A new "net" command has been added. It is somewhat similar to
6203 the "net" command in windows. Eventually we plan to replace
6204 numerous other utilities (such as smbpasswd) with subcommands
6207 6) Samba now negotiates NT-style status32 codes on the wire. This
6208 improves error handling a lot.
6210 7) Better Windows 2000/XP/2003 printing support including publishing
6211 printer attributes in active directory.
6213 8) New loadable module support for passdb backends and character
6216 9) New default dual-daemon winbindd support for better performance.
6218 10) Support for migrating from a Windows NT 4.0 domain to a Samba
6219 domain and maintaining user, group and domain SIDs.
6221 11) Support for establishing trust relationships with Windows NT 4.0
6224 12) Initial support for a distributed Winbind architecture using
6225 an LDAP directory for storing SID to uid/gid mappings.
6227 13) Major updates to the Samba documentation tree.
6229 14) Full support for client and server SMB signing to ensure
6230 compatibility with default Windows 2003 security settings.
6232 15) Improvement of ACL mapping features based on code donated by
6233 Andreas Grünbacher.
6236 Plus lots of other improvements!
6239 Additional Documentation
6240 ------------------------
6242 Please refer to Samba documentation tree (included in the docs/
6243 subdirectory) for extensive explanations of installing, configuring
6244 and maintaining Samba 3.0 servers and clients. It is advised to
6245 begin with the Samba-HOWTO-Collection for overviews and specific
6246 tasks (the current book is up to approximately 400 pages) and to
6247 refer to the various man pages for information on individual options.
6249 We are very glad to be able to include the second edition of
6250 "Using Samba" by Jay Ts, Robert Eckstein, and David Collier-Brown
6251 (O'Reilly & Associates) in this release. The book is available
6252 on-line at http://samba.org/samba/docs/ and is included with
6253 the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). Thanks to the authors and
6254 publisher for making "Using Samba" under the GNU Free Documentation
6258 ######################################################################
6259 Upgrading from a previous Samba 3.0 beta
6260 ########################################
6262 Beginning with Samba 3.0.0beta3, the RID allocation functions
6263 have been moved into winbindd. Previously these were handled
6264 by each passdb backend. This means that winbindd must be running
6265 to automatically allocate RIDs for users and/or groups. Otherwise,
6266 smbd will use the 2.2 algorithm for generating new RIDs.
6268 If you are using 'passdb backend = tdbsam' with a previous Samba
6269 3.0 beta release (or possibly alpha), it may be necessary to
6270 move the RID_COUNTER entry from /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
6271 to winbindd_idmap.tdb. To do this:
6273 1) Ensure that winbindd_idmap.tdb exists (launch winbindd at least
6275 2) build tdbtool by executing 'make tdbtool' in the source/tdb/
6277 3) run: (note that 'tdb>' is the tool's prompt for input)
6279 root# ./tdbtool /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
6280 tdb> show RID_COUNTER
6284 [000] 0A 52 00 00 .R.
6286 tdb> move RID_COUNTER /usr/local/samba/var/locks/winbindd_idmap.tdb
6290 If you are using 'passdb backend = ldapsam', it will be necessary to
6291 store idmap entries in the LDAP directory as well (i.e. idmap backend
6292 = ldap). Refer to the 'net idmap' command for more information on
6293 migrating SID<->UNIX id mappings from one backend to another.
6295 If the RID_COUNTER record does not exist, then these instructions are
6296 unneccessary and the new RID_COUNTER record will be correctly generated

6477 introduced in Samba 3.0. Please remember to backup your existing
6478 ${lock directory}/*tdb before upgrading to Samba 3.0. Samba will
6479 upgrade databases as they are opened (if necessary), but downgrading
6480 from 3.0 to 2.2 is an unsupported path.
6482 Name Description Backup?
6483 ---- ----------- -------
6484 account_policy User policy settings yes
6485 gencache Generic caching db no
6486 group_mapping Mapping table from Windows yes
6487 groups/SID to unix groups

6495 command' created on a per print
6497 registry Read-only samba registry skeleton no
6498 that provides support for exporting
6499 various db tables via the winreg RPCs
6505 The following issues are known changes in behavior between Samba 2.2 and
6506 Samba 3.0 that may affect certain installations of Samba.
6508 1) When operating as a member of a Windows domain, Samba 2.2 would
6509 map any users authenticated by the remote DC to the 'guest account'
6510 if a uid could not be obtained via the getpwnam() call. Samba 3.0
6511 rejects the connection as NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. There is no
6512 current work around to re-establish the 2.2 behavior.
6514 2) When adding machines to a Samba 2.2 controlled domain, the
6515 'add user script' was used to create the UNIX identity of the
6516 machine trust account. Samba 3.0 introduces a new 'add machine
6517 script' that must be specified for this purpose. Samba 3.0 will
6518 not fall back to using the 'add user script' in the absence of
6519 an 'add machine script'
6522 ######################################################################
6523 Passdb Backends and Authentication
6524 ##################################
6526 There have been a few new changes that Samba administrators should be
6527 aware of when moving to Samba 3.0.
6529 1) encrypted passwords have been enabled by default in order to
6530 inter-operate better with out-of-the-box Windows client
6531 installations. This does mean that either (a) a samba account
6532 must be created for each user, or (b) 'encrypt passwords = no'
6533 must be explicitly defined in smb.conf.
6535 2) Inclusion of new 'security = ads' option for integration
6536 with an Active Directory domain using the native Windows
6537 Kerberos 5 and LDAP protocols.
6539 MIT Kerberos 1.3.1 supports the ARCFOUR-HMAC-MD5 encryption
6540 type which is neccessary for servers on which the
6541 administrator password has not been changed, or Kerberos-enabled
6542 SMB connections to servers that require Kerberos SMB signing.
6543 Besides this one difference, either MIT or Heimdal Kerberos
6544 distributions are usable by Samba 3.0.
6547 Samba 3.0 also includes the possibility of setting up chains
6548 of authentication methods (auth methods) and account storage
6549 backends (passdb backend). Please refer to the smb.conf(5)
6550 man page for details. While both parameters assume sane default
6551 values, it is likely that you will need to understand what the
6552 values actually mean in order to ensure Samba operates correctly.
6554 The recommended passdb backends at this time are
6556 * smbpasswd - 2.2 compatible flat file format
6557 * tdbsam - attribute rich database intended as an smbpasswd
6558 replacement for stand alone servers
6559 * ldapsam - attribute rich account storage and retrieval
6560 backend utilizing an LDAP directory.
6561 * ldapsam_compat - a 2.2 backward compatible LDAP account
6564 Certain functions of the smbpasswd(8) tool have been split between the
6565 new smbpasswd(8) utility, the net(8) tool, and the new pdbedit(8)
6566 utility. See the respective man pages for details.
6569 ######################################################################
6573 This section outlines the new features affecting Samba / LDAP
6579 A new object class (sambaSamAccount) has been introduced to replace
6580 the old sambaAccount. This change aids us in the renaming of
6581 attributes to prevent clashes with attributes from other vendors.
6582 There is a conversion script (examples/LDAP/convertSambaAccount) to
6583 modify and LDIF file to the new schema.
6587 $ ldapsearch .... -b "ou=people,dc=..." > sambaAcct.ldif
6588 $ convertSambaAccount --sid=<Domain SID> \
6589 --input=sambaAcct.ldif --output=sambaSamAcct.ldif \
6590 --changetype=[modify|add]
6592 The <DOM SID> can be obtained by running 'net getlocalsid
6593 <DOMAINNAME>' on the Samba PDC as root. The changetype determines
6594 the format of the generated LDIF output--either create new entries
6595 or modify existing entries.
6597 The old sambaAccount schema may still be used by specifying the
6598 "ldapsam_compat" passdb backend. However, the sambaAccount and
6599 associated attributes have been moved to the historical section of
6600 the schema file and must be uncommented before use if needed.
6601 The 2.2 object class declaration for a sambaAccount has not changed
6602 in the 3.0 samba.schema file.
6604 Other new object classes and their uses include:
6606 * sambaDomain - domain information used to allocate rids
6607 for users and groups as necessary. The attributes are added
6608 in 'ldap suffix' directory entry automatically if
6609 an idmap uid/gid range has been set and the 'ldapsam'
6610 passdb backend has been selected.
6612 * sambaGroupMapping - an object representing the
6613 relationship between a posixGroup and a Windows
6614 group/SID. These entries are stored in the 'ldap
6615 group suffix' and managed by the 'net groupmap' command.
6617 * sambaUnixIdPool - created in the 'ldap idmap suffix' entry
6618 automatically and contains the next available 'idmap uid' and
6621 * sambaIdmapEntry - object storing a mapping between a
6622 SID and a UNIX uid/gid. These objects are created by the
6623 idmap_ldap module as needed.
6625 * sambaSidEntry - object representing a SID alone, as a Structural
6626 class on which to build the sambaIdmapEntry.
6629 New Suffix for Searching
6630 ------------------------
6632 The following new smb.conf parameters have been added to aid in directing
6633 certain LDAP queries when 'passdb backend = ldapsam://...' has been
6636 * ldap suffix - used to search for user and computer accounts
6637 * ldap user suffix - used to store user accounts
6638 * ldap machine suffix - used to store machine trust accounts
6639 * ldap group suffix - location of posixGroup/sambaGroupMapping entries
6640 * ldap idmap suffix - location of sambaIdmapEntry objects
6642 If an 'ldap suffix' is defined, it will be appended to all of the
6643 remaining sub-suffix parameters. In this case, the order of the suffix
6644 listings in smb.conf is important. Always place the 'ldap suffix' first
6647 Due to a limitation in Samba's smb.conf parsing, you should not surround
6648 the DN's with quotation marks.
6654 Samba 3.0 supports an ldap backend for the idmap subsystem. The
6655 following options would inform Samba that the idmap table should be
6656 stored on the directory server onterose in the "ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,
6661 idmap backend = ldap:ldap://onterose/
6662 ldap idmap suffix = ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,dc=org
6663 idmap uid = 40000-50000
6664 idmap gid = 40000-50000
6666 This configuration allows winbind installations on multiple servers to
6667 share a uid/gid number space, thus avoiding the interoperability problems
6668 with NFS that were present in Samba 2.2.
6672 ######################################################################
6673 Trust Relationships and a Samba Domain
6674 ######################################
6676 Samba 3.0.0beta2 is able to utilize winbindd as the means of
6677 allocating uids and gids to trusted users and groups. More
6678 information regarding Samba's support for establishing trust
6679 relationships can be found in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection included
6680 in the docs/ directory of this release.
6682 First create your Samba PDC and ensure that everything is
6683 working correctly before moving on the trusts.
6685 To establish Samba as the trusting domain (named SAMBA) from a Windows NT
6686 4.0 domain named WINDOWS:
6688 1) create the trust account for SAMBA in "User Manager for Domains"
6689 2) connect the trust from the Samba domain using
6690 'net rpc trustdom establish GLASS'
6692 To create a trustlationship with SAMBA as the trusted domain:
6694 1) create the initial trust account for GLASS using
6695 'smbpasswd -a -i GLASS'. You may need to create a UNIX
6696 account for GLASS$ prior to this step (depending on your
6697 local configuration).
6698 2) connect the trust from a WINDOWS DC using "User Manager
6701 Now join winbindd on the Samba PDC to the SAMBA domain using
6702 the normal steps for adding a Samba server to an NT4 domain:
6703 (note that smbd & nmbd must be running at this point)
6705 root# net rpc join -U root
6706 Password: <enter root password from smbpasswd file here>
6708 Start winbindd and test the join with 'wbinfo -t'.
6710 Now test the trust relationship by connecting to the SAMBA DC
6711 (e.g. POGO) as a user from the WINDOWS domain:
6713 $ smbclient //pogo/netlogon -U Administrator -W WINDOWS
6716 Now connect to the WINDOWS DC (e.g. CRYSTAL) as a Samba user:
6718 $ smbclient //crystal/netlogon -U root -W WINDOWS
6721 ######################################################################
6725 Beginning with Samba3.0.0beta3, winbindd has been given new account
6726 manage functionality equivalent to the 'add user script' family of
6727 smb.conf parameters. The idmap design has also been changed to
6728 centralize control of foreign SID lookups and matching to UNIX
6732 Brief Description of Changes
6733 ----------------------------
6735 1) The sid_to_uid() family of functions (smbd/uid.c) have been
6736 reverted to the 2.2.x design. This means that when resolving a
6737 SID to a UID or similar mapping:
6739 a) First consult winbindd
6740 b) perform a local lookup only if winbindd fails to
6741 return a successful answer
6743 There are some variations to this, but these two rules generally
6746 2) All idmap lookups have been moved into winbindd. This means that
6747 a server must run winbindd (and support NSS) in order to achieve
6748 any mappings of SID to dynamically allocated UNIX ids. This was
6749 a conscious design choice.
6751 3) (OBSOLETE) New functions have been added to winbindd to emulate
6752 the 'add user script' family of smbd functions without requiring
6753 that external scripts be defined. This functionality is controlled
6754 by the 'winbind enable local accounts' smb.conf parameter (enabled
6757 However, this account management functionality is only supported
6758 in a local tdb (winbindd_idmap.tdb). If these new UNIX accounts
6759 must be shared among multiple Samba servers (such as a PDC and BDCs),
6760 it will be necessary to define your own 'add user script', et. al.
6761 programs that place the accounts/groups in some form of directory
6762 such as NIS or LDAP. This requirement was deemed beyond the scope
6763 of winbind's account management functions. Solutions for
6764 distributing UNIX system information have been deployed and tested
6765 for many years. We saw no need to reinvent the wheel.
6767 4) A member of a Samba controlled domain running winbindd is now able
6768 to map domain users directly onto existing UNIX accounts while still
6769 automatically creating accounts for trusted users and groups. This
6770 behavior is controlled by the 'winbind trusted domains only' smb.conf
6771 parameter (disabled by default to provide 2.2.x winbind behavior).
6773 5) Group mapping support is wrapped in the local_XX_to_XX() functions
6774 in smbd/uid.c. The reason that group mappings are not included
6775 in winbindd is because the purpose of Samba's group map is to
6776 match any Windows SID with an existing UNIX group. These UNIX
