397 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.30
399 ===============================
401 This is a security release in order to address CVE-2008-1105 ("Boundary
402 failure when parsing SMB responses can result in a buffer overrun").
405 Specifically crafted SMB responses can result in a heap overflow
406 in the Samba client code. Because the server process, smbd, can
407 itself act as a client during operations such as printer notification
408 and domain authentication, this issue affects both Samba client
409 and server installations.

1279 o Premature expiration of domain user passwords when using a
1280 Samba domain controller.

1289 Please be aware that the initial value for the "msdfs root" share
1290 parameter was changed in the 3.0.25 release series and that this
1291 option is now disabled by default. Windows clients frequently require
1292 a reboot in order to clear any cached information about MS-DFS
1293 root shares on a server and you may experience failures accessing
1294 file services on Samba 3.0.25 servers until the client reboot
1295 is performed. Alternately, you may explicitly re-enable the
1296 parameter in smb.conf. Please refer to the smb.conf(5) man page

1437 Unescaped user input parameters are passed as
1438 arguments to /bin/sh allowing for remote command
1442 Off-line Logons and AD Site Support
1443 ===================================
1445 Winbind's capability to support offline logons has been greatly
1446 improved with the 3.0.25 release including support for locating
1447 domain controllers asynchronously using Active Directory Site
1451 New IdMap Interface for Winbindd
1452 ================================
1454 The 3.0.25 release of Samba includes a rewritten IdMap interface
1455 for winbindd which replaces the "idmap backend" parameter. Please
1456 refer to the "idmap domains" description in the smb.conf(5) man
1457 page for more details.
1463 The "net ads join" command is now able to register the host's DNS A
1464 records with Windows 2000 SP4 and 2003 DNS servers. This
1465 feature must be enabled at compile time using the --with-dnsupdate
1466 when running the ./configure script. There is also a related "net ads
1467 dns" command for refreshing a host's records which could be launched
1468 from a dhcp client script when a new IP address is obtained.
1471 Support for Additional ACL Modules
1472 ==================================
1474 Samba's POSIX ACL support has been moved inside of the VFS layer
1475 which means it is now possible to support multiple ACL implementations
1476 on the same server including NFSv4 and GPFS ACLs.
1479 VFS ReadAhead Plugin
1480 ====================
1482 Windows Vista introduces pipe-lined read support for improved
1483 performance when transferring files. The new vfs_readahead plugin
1484 allows Linux file servers to utilize additional Kernel buffers
1485 for caching files in order to avoid Disk I/O wait time when serving
1486 Vista clients. If you experience poor read performance between
1487 Linux servers and Vista clients, please test the vfs_readahead
1488 module by adding the following lines to the share definition
1492 vfs objects = readahead
1494 Note that this plugin will result in additional RAM requirements
1495 due to the increased amount of kernel buffer caches used by smbd.
1496 Please refer to vfs_readahead(8) for more information.
1499 Windows Vista, Office 2007, and Offline Files
1500 =============================================
1502 Research surrounding offline files, Windows Vista, and Microsoft
1503 Office 2007 has revealed a incompatibility between these
1504 applications and the "map acl inherit = no" setting in smb.conf.
1505 Users requiring support client side caching (csc) and offline
1506 files are encouraged to enable the "map acl inherit" for any
1507 affected share definitions in the server's configuration.
1508 Future versions of Samba will enable this setting by default.
1510 Please refer to the smb.conf(5) man page for more details on

2289 Release Notes for older release follow:
2291 --------------------------------------------------
2292 ===============================
2293 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23c
2295 ===============================
2297 We would like to thank the developers of the Saturn code analysis
2298 tool from Stanford University (http://glide.stanford.edu/saturn).
2299 This release includes several code fixes based on its reports.
2301 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.23c include:
2303 o Authentication failures in pam_winbind when the AD domain
2304 policy is set to not expire passwords.
2305 o Authorization failures when using smb.conf options such
2306 as "valid users" with the smbpasswd passdb backend.
2309 RID Algorithms & Passdb
2310 =======================
2312 Starting with the 3.0.23c release, the officially supported passdb
2313 backends (smbpasswd, tdbsam, and ldapsam) now operate identically
2314 with regards to the historical RID algorithm for unmapped users
2315 and groups (i.e. accounts not in the passdb or group mapping table).
2316 The resulting behavior is that all unmapped users are resolved
2317 to a SID in the S-1-22-1 domain and all unmapped groups resolve
2318 to a SID in the S-1-22-2 domain. Previously, when using the
2319 smbpasswd passdb, such users and groups would resolve to an
2320 algorithmic SID in the machine's own domain (S-1-5-XX-XX-XX).
2321 However, the smbpasswd backend still utilizes the RID algorithm
2322 when creating new user accounts or allocating a RID for a new
2323 group mapping entry.
2325 With the changes in the 3.0.23c release, it is now possible to
2326 resolve a uid/gid, name, or SID in any direction and always obtain
2327 a symmetric mapping. This is important so that values for smb.conf
2328 parameters such as "valid users" resolve to the same SIDs as those
2329 included in the local user's initial token.
2331 Most installations will notice no change. However, because
2332 an unmapped account's SID will now change even when using
2333 smbpasswd it is possible that any security descriptors on files
2334 previously copied from a Samba host to a Windows NTFS partition
2335 may now fail to give access. The workaround is to either manually
2336 map all affect groups (or add impacted users to the server's
2337 passdb) or to manually reset the file's ACL.
2340 ######################################################################
2344 Changes since 3.0.23b
2345 ---------------------
2349 o Michael Adam <ma@sernet.de>
2350 * Fix incorrect logic in internal_resolve_name() caused by if
2354 o Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>

2375 * BUG 3969: Fix unsigned time comparison with expiration
2377 * Merge Guenther's fixes from the SuSE SLES10 tree to ensure
2378 that winbindd talks to the correct DC when servicing PAM
2379 authentication requests.
2380 * Do not use the generic IP address sort routines for AD DCs
2381 since the SRV lookup include a sorting algorithm based
2382 on priority and weight.
2383 * Fix our DNS SRV lookup code to deal with multi-homed hosts.
2384 * More changes to ensure that the primary group SID for
2385 a local user is based on the primary Unix group and not the
2386 primaryGroupSID passdb attribute.
2387 * Disable storing SIDs in the S-1-22-1 and S-1-22-2 domain
2388 to the SID<->uid/gid cache.
2391 o Guenther Deschner <gd@samba.org>
2392 * Fix msdfs RPC client and server management RPCs.
2393 * Align idmap_ad with the current idmap_methods interface.
2396 o Volker Lendecke <vl@samba.org>
2397 * Re-add support for "username level" when looking up the
2398 matching Unix user for an smbpasswd entry.
2402 o Simo Sorce <idra@samba.org>
2403 * Let innetgr() work without binding its use to a
2404 NIS domain to support netgroups in local files.
2407 o Ben Winslow <rain@bluecherry.net>
2408 * Allow client smb signing to be turned off correctly.
2411 --------------------------------------------------
2412 ===============================
2413 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23b
2415 ===============================
2417 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.23b include:
2419 o Ambiguity with unqualified names in smb.conf parameters
2420 such as "force user" and "valid users".
2421 o Errors in 'net ads join' caused by bad IP address in the list
2422 of domain controllers.
2423 o SMB signing errors in the client and server code.
2424 o Domain join failures when using smbpasswd on a Samba PDC.
2427 Member servers, domain accounts, and smb.conf
2428 =============================================
2430 Since Samba 3.0.8, it has been recommended that all domain accounts
2431 listed in smb.conf on a member server be fully qualified with the
2432 domain name. This is now a requirement. All unqualified names are
2433 assumed to be local to the Unix host, either as part of the server's
2434 local passdb or in the local system list of accounts (e.g. /etc/passwd
2437 The reason for this change is that smbd has transitioned from
2438 access checks based on string comparisons to token based
2439 authorization. All names are resolved to a SID and then verified
2440 against the logged on user's NT user token. Local names will
2441 resolve to a local SID, while qualified domain names will resolve
2442 to the appropriate domain SID.
2444 If the member server is not running winbindd at all, domain
2445 accounts will be implicitly mapped to local accounts and their
2446 tokens will be modified appropriately to reflect the local
2447 SID and group membership.
2449 For example, the following share will restrict access to the
2450 domain group "Linux Admins" and the local group srvadmin.
2454 valid users = +"DOMAIN\Linux Admins" +srvadmin
2456 Note that to restrict the [homes] share on a member server to the
2457 owner of that directory, it is necessary to prefix the %S value
2461 security = {domain,ads}
2463 winbind separator = +
2465 valid users = DOM+%S

2624 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.23
2626 ==============================
2628 There has been a substantial amount of cleanup work done during
2629 this development cycle. We would like to thank both Coverity
2630 (http://www.coverity.com/) and Klocwork (http://www.klocwork.com/)
2631 for analyzing the Samba source code. As a result, this release
2632 includes fixes for over 400 defects. The coverage was approximately
2633 even with over 200 defects reported by each tool.
2635 Thanks very much to those people who spent time testing the
2636 release candidates and reported their findings. We would like to
2637 especially thank Thomas Bork <tombork@web.de> for his numerous
2638 reports. We believe that the final release is in much better shape
2639 in large part due to his efforts.
2641 New features in 3.0.23 include:
2643 o Improved 'make test'
2644 o New offline mode in winbindd.
2645 o New Kerberos support for pam_winbind.so.
2646 o New handling of unmapped users and groups.
2647 o New non-root share management tools.
2648 o Improved support for local and BUILTIN groups.
2649 o Winbind IDMAP integration with RFC2307 schema objects supported
2651 o Rewritten 'net ads join' to mimic Windows XP without requiring
2652 administrative rights to join a domain.
2655 User and Group changes
2656 ======================
2658 The user and group internal management routines have been
2659 rewritten to prevent overlaps of assigned Relative Identifiers
2660 (RIDs). In the past the has been a potential problem when either
2661 manually mapping Unix groups with the 'net groupmap' command or
2662 when migrating a Windows domain to a Samba domain using 'net rpc
2665 Unmapped users are now assigned a SID in the S-1-22-1 domain and
2666 unmapped groups are assigned a SID in the S-1-22-2 domain.
2667 Previously they were assign a RID within the SAM on the Samba
2668 server. For a DC this would have been under the authority of the
2669 domain SID where as on a member server or standalone host, this
2670 would have been under the authority of the local SAM (hint: net
2673 The result is that any unmapped users or groups on an upgraded
2674 Samba domain controller may be assigned a new SID. Because the
2675 SID rather than a name is stored in Windows security descriptors,
2676 this can cause a user to no longer have access to a resource for
2677 example if a file was copied from a Samba file server to a local
2678 NTFS partition. Any files stored on the Samba server itself will
2679 continue to be accessible because Unix stores the Unix gid and not
2680 the SID for authorization checks.
2682 A further example will help illustrate the change. Assume that a
2683 group named 'developers' exists with a Unix gid of 782 but this
2684 user does not exist in Samba's group mapping table. it would be
2685 perfectly normal for this group to be appear in an ACL editor.
2686 Prior to 3.0.23, the group SID might appear as
2687 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565. With 3.0.23, the
2688 group SID would be reported as S-1-22-2-782. Any security
2689 descriptors associated with files stored on an NTFS disk partition
2690 would not allow access based on the group permissions if the user
2691 was not a member of the
2692 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565 group. Because this
2693 group SID not reported in a user's token is S-1-22-2-782, Windows
2694 would fail the authorization check even though both SIDs in some
2695 respect referred to the same Unix group.
2697 The current workaround is to create a manual domain group mapping
2698 entry for the group 'developers' to point at the
2699 S-1-5-21-647511796-4126122067-3123570092-2565 SID.
2705 The "passdb backend" parameter no long accepts multiple backends
2706 in a chaining configuration. Also be aware that the SQL and XML
2707 based passdb modules have been removed in this release. More
2708 information of external support for a SQL passdb module can be
2709 found at http://pdbsql.sourceforge.net/.
2712 Group Mapping Changes
2713 =====================
2715 The default mapping entries for groups such as "Domain Admins" are
2716 no longer created when using an smbpasswd file or a tdbsam passdb
2717 backend. This means that it is necessary to use 'net groupmap
2718 add' rather than 'net groupmap modify' to set these entries.
2719 This change has no effect on winbindd's IDmap functionality for
2726 There has also been a minor update the Samba LDAP schema file. A
2727 substring matching rule has been added to the sambaSID attribute
2728 definition. For OpenLDAP servers, this will require the addition
2729 of 'index sambaSID sub' to the slapd.conf configuration file. It
2730 will be necessary to run slapindex after making this change. There
2731 has been no change to actual data storage schema.

3384 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.22
3386 ==============================
3388 This is a security release of Samba. The Samba 3.0.21 release
3389 series (including the patch releases a through c) has been
3390 discovered to expose the clear text of the server's machine
3391 account credentials in the winbind log files when the log
3392 level is set to 5 or higher. This defect has been assigned
3393 the CVE number CAN-2006-1059.
3398 The machine trust account password is the secret shared
3399 between a domain controller and a specific member server.
3400 Access to the member server machine credentials allows
3401 an attacker to impersonate the server in the domain and
3402 gain access to additional information regarding domain
3405 The winbindd daemon included in Samba 3.0.21 and subsequent
3406 patch releases (3.0.21a-c) writes the clear text of server's
3407 machine credentials to its log file at level 5. The winbindd
3408 log files are world readable by default and often log files
3409 are requested on open mailing lists as tools used to debug
3410 server misconfigurations.
3412 This affects servers configured to use domain or ads security
3413 and possibly Samba domain controllers as well (if configured

4268 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.20a
4270 ===============================
4272 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.20a include:
4274 o Stability problems with winbindd.
4275 o Crash bugs caused by incompatibilities on 64-bit systems.
4276 o Missing files from directory listings on AIX servers
4277 o User Manager interoperability problems.
4278 o Minor build difficulties on various platforms such as
4279 Solaris and OpenBSD,
4282 Winbind, security = domain, and Active Directory
4283 ================================================
4285 Recent security updates for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 have
4286 changed the fashion in which user and group lists can be obtained
4287 from domain controllers. In short, the RPC mechanisms used by
4288 "security = domain" to retrieve users and groups is not compatible
4289 with these changes. The "security = ads" configuration is not
4290 affected by the Windows protocol changes.
4292 Samba developers are actively working to correct this problem in
4293 the 3.0.21 release. In the meantime, Administrators who are unable
4294 to migrate to "security = ads" and must continue using "security =
4295 domain", can define credentials to be used by winbindd for account
4296 enumeration by executing the following command as root.

4445 What happened to 3.0.15 - 3.0.19?
4446 ==================================
4448 After some discussion it was deemed that the amount of changes
4449 going into the next Samba 3.0 release needed something to catch
4450 people's attention. Skipping several releases was chosen as
4451 the best solution with the least overhead. There will be no
4452 3.0.15 - 3.0.19 ever released. The next production release
4453 following 3.0.20 should be 3.0.21.

4461 Asynchronous Winbind Implementation
4462 ===================================
4464 Winbindd has been completely rewritten in this release to support
4465 an almost completely non-blocking, asynchronous request/reply
4466 model. This means that winbindd will scale much better in
4467 large domain environments and on high latency networks. Neither
4468 the client interface nor the command line tools (i.e. wbinfo) have
4469 changed in their calling conventions or syntax. However, due to
4470 internal structure changes, it is required (more so than normal)
4471 that you install the nss_winbind.so library included in this release.
4474 Support for Microsoft Print Migrator
4475 ====================================
4477 Samba 3.0.20 includes full support for migrating printers from
4478 Windows servers or other Samba servers via the Microsoft Print
4479 Migrator tool. Restoring printers requires a working "add printer
4480 command" defined in smb.conf. Current support also allows
4481 administrators to create a master list of printer drivers which
4482 can be restored in bulk on new (or existing) Samba installations.
4485 Asynchronous IO Support
4486 =======================
4488 Experimental support for async IO has been added to smbd for
4489 certain platforms. To enable this new feature, Samba must be
4490 compiled to include the --with-aio-support configure option.
4491 In addition, the "aio read size" and "aio write size" to non-zero
4492 values. See the smb.conf(5) man page for more details on these

5393 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.12
5395 ==============================
5397 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.12 include:
5399 o Winbind failures when using 'disable netbios = yes'
5400 o Failure to establish a trust relationship via 'net rpc trust
5402 o Various portability & compiler issues.
5403 o Read only file deletion failure caused by new delete semantics
5404 in Windows XP SP2 and the MS 04-044 security hotfix.

5422 replace 'smbpasswd {-a,-x} -i'.
5423 o New libsmbclient functionality.
5427 =======================
5428 Large Directory Support
5429 =======================
5431 Samba 3.0.12pre1 introduces a specific mechanism for dealing
5432 with file services that frequently contain a large number of files
5433 per directory. Historically Samba's performance has suffered
5434 in such environments due to the translation from case
5435 insensitive lookups by Windows client to the case sensitive
5436 storage mechanisms used by UNIX filesystems.
5438 Configuration details along with a short HOWTO can be found at:
5440 http://www.samba.org/samba/ftp/HOWTO/Samba-LargeDirectory-HOWTO
5443 ==================================
5444 libsmbclient Binary Compatibility
5445 ==================================
5447 Please note that a change has been made to the _SMBCCTX structure
5448 in source/include/libsmbclient.h. This change is not backwards
5449 compatible with applications linked against the libsmbclient.so
5450 library from Samba 3.0.11. However, it is compatible with all
5451 other Samba 3.0.x releases. This means that it will be most likely
5452 be necessary to recompile any applications linked against the
5453 3.0.11 version of the library.

5767 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.11
5769 ==============================
5771 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.11 include:
5773 o Crash in smbd when using CUPS printing.
5774 o Parsing error of other SIDs included in the user_info_3
5775 structure returned from domain controllers.
5776 o Inefficiencies when searching non-AD LDAP directories.
5777 o Failure to expand variables in user domain attributes
5778 in tdbsam and ldapsam.
5780 o Failure to retrieve certain attribute when migrating from
5781 a Windows DC to a Samba DC via 'net rpc vampire'.
5782 o Numerous printing bugs bugs including memory
5783 bloating on large/busy print servers.
5784 o Compatibility issues with Exchange 5.5 SP4.
5787 Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.11:
5789 o Winbindd performance improvements.
5790 o More 'net rpc vampire' functionality.
5791 o Support for the Windows privilege model to assign rights
5793 o New administrative options to the 'net rpc' command.
5800 If "ldap user suffix" or "ldap machine suffix" are defined in
5801 smb.conf, all user-accounts must reside below the user suffix,
5802 and all machine and inter-domain trust-accounts must be located
5803 below the machine suffix. Previous Samba releases would fall
5804 back to searching the 'ldap suffix' in some cases.
5811 Samba 3.0.11 supports the following assignable rights
5813 SeMachineAccountPrivilege Add machines to domain
5814 SePrintOperatorPrivilege Manage printers
5815 SeAddUsersPrivilege Add users and groups to the domain
5816 SeRemoteShutdownPrivilege Force shutdown from a remote system
5817 SeDiskOperatorPrivilege Manage disk shares
5819 These rights can be assigned to arbitrary users or groups
5820 via the 'net rpc rights grant/revoke' command. More details
5821 of Samba's privilege implementation can be found in the
5822 Samba-HOWTO-Collection.

6356 o Fixes for the printer publishing code used when joined to
6358 o Incompatibilities with file system quotas.

6372 o New migration functionality added the the net tool
6373 for files/directories, printers, and shares.

6377 o Additional printer migration support for XP/2003 platforms.
6380 ===========================
6381 Change in Winbindd Behavior
6382 ===========================
6384 All usernames returned by winbindd are now converted to lower
6385 case for better consistency. This means any winbind installation
6386 relying on the winbind username will need to rename existing
6387 directories and/or files based on the username (%u and %U) to lower
6388 case (e.g. mv $name `echo $name | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`). This may
6389 include mail spool files, home directories, valid user lines in
6393 ======================
6394 Change in Username Map
6395 ======================
6397 Previous Samba releases would only support reading the fully qualified
6398 username (e.g. DOMAIN\user) from the username map when performing a
6399 Kerberos login from a client. However, when looking up a map
6400 entry for a user authenticated by NTLM[SSP], only the login name would be
6401 used for matches. This resulted in inconsistent behavior sometimes
6402 even on the same server.
6404 Samba 3.0.8 obeys the following rules when applying the username
6407 * When performing local authentication, the username map is
6408 applied to the login name before attempting to authenticate
6410 * When relying upon a external domain controller for validating
6411 authentication requests, smbd will apply the username map
6412 to the fully qualified username (i.e. DOMAIN\user) only
6413 after the user has been successfully authenticated.

6951 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.6
6953 =============================
6955 Common bugs fixed in 3.0.6 include:
6957 o Schannel failure in winbindd.
6958 o Numerous memory leaks.
6959 o Incompatibilities between the 'write list' and 'force user'
6961 o Premature optimization of the open_directory() internal
6962 function that broke tools such as the ArcServe backup
6963 agent, Macromedia HomeSite, and Robocopy.
6964 o Corrupt workgroup names in nmbd's browse.dat.
6965 o Sharing violation errors commonly seen when opening
6966 when serving Microsoft Office documents from a Samba
6968 o Browsing problems caused by an apostrophe (') in the
6969 computer's description field.
6970 o Problems creating special file types from UNIX CIFS
6971 clients and enabling 'unix extensions'.
6972 o Fix stalls in smbd caused by inaccessible LDAP servers.
6973 o Remove various memory leaks.
6974 o Fix issues in the password lockout feature.
6976 New features introduced in this release include:
6978 O Support symlinks created by CIFS clients which
6979 can be followed on the server.
6980 o Using a cups server other than localhost.
6981 o Maintaining the service principal entry in the system
6982 keytab for integration with other kerberized services.
6983 Please refer to the 'use Kerberos keytab' entry in
6984 smb.conf(5). When using the heimdal Kerberos libraries,
6985 you must also specify the following in /etc/krb5.conf:
6987 default_keytab_name = FILE:/etc/krb5.keytab
6988 o Support for maintaining individual printer names
6989 stored separately from the printer's sharename.
6990 o Support for maintaining user password history.
6991 o Support for honoring the logon times for user in a
6995 ============================================
6996 unix extensions = yes (default) and symlinks
6997 ============================================
6999 Beginning with Samba 3.0.6pre1 (formerly known as 3.0.5pre1),
7000 clients supporting the UNIX extensions to the CIFS protocol
7001 can create symlinks to absolute paths which will be **followed**
7002 by the server. This functionality has been requested in order
7003 to correctly support certain applications when the user's home
7004 directory is mounted using some type of CIFS client (e.g. the
7005 cifsvfs in the Linux 2.6 kernel).
7007 If this behavior is not acceptable for your production environment
7008 you can set 'wide links = no' in the specific share declaration in
7009 the server's smb.conf. Be aware that disabling wide link support
7010 out of a share in Samba may impact the server's performance due
7011 to the fact that smbd will now have to check each path additional
7012 times before traversing it.
7015 ========================
7016 Password History Support
7017 ========================
7019 The new password history feature allows smbd to check the new
7020 password in password change requests against a list of the user's
7021 previous passwords. The number of previous passwords to save can
7022 be set using pdbedit (4 in this example):
7024 root# pdbedit -P "password history" -C 4
7026 When using the ldapsam passdb backend, it is vital to secure the
7027 following attributes from access by non-administrative users:
7031 * sambaPasswordHistory
7033 You should refer to your directory server's documentation on how
7034 to implement this restriction.

7450 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.5
7452 =============================
7454 Please note that Samba 3.0.5 is identical to Samba 3.0.4 with
7455 the exception of correcting the two security issues outlined
7458 ######################## SECURITY RELEASE ########################
7460 Summary: Multiple Potential Buffer Overruns in Samba 3.0.x
7461 CVE ID: CAN-2004-0600, CAN-2004-0686
7462 (http://cve.mitre.org/)
7465 This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is the version
7466 that production Samba servers should be running for all current
7469 It has been confirmed that versions of Samba 3 prior to v3.0.4
7470 are vulnerable to two potential buffer overruns. The individual
7471 details are given below.
7477 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.2 and later
7479 The internal routine used by the Samba Web Administration
7480 Tool (SWAT v3.0.2 and later) to decode the base64 data
7481 during HTTP basic authentication is subject to a buffer
7482 overrun caused by an invalid base64 character. It is
7483 recommended that all Samba v3.0.2 or later installations
7484 running SWAT either (a) upgrade to v3.0.5, or (b) disable
7485 the swat administration service as a temporary workaround.
7487 This same code is used internally to decode the
7488 sambaMungedDial attribute value when using the ldapsam
7489 passdb backend. While we do not believe that the base64
7490 decoding routines used by the ldapsam passdb backend can
7491 be exploited, sites using an LDAP directory service with
7492 Samba are strongly encouraged to verify that the DIT only
7493 allows write access to sambaSamAccount attributes by a
7494 sufficiently authorized user.
7496 The Samba Team would like to heartily thank Evgeny Demidov
7497 for analyzing and reporting this bug.
7503 Affected Versions: Samba 3.0.0 and later
7505 A buffer overrun has been located in the code used to support
7506 the 'mangling method = hash' smb.conf option. Please be aware
7507 that the default setting for this parameter is 'mangling method
7508 = hash2' and therefore not vulnerable.
7510 Affected Samba 3 installations can avoid this possible security
7511 bug by using the default hash2 mangling method. Server
7512 installations requiring the hash mangling method are encouraged
7513 to upgrade to Samba 3.0.5.

8086 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2a
8088 ==============================
8090 Samba 3.0.2a is a minor patch release for the 3.0.2 code base
8091 to address, in particular, a problem when using pdbedit to
8092 sanitize (--force-initialized-passwords) Samba's tdbsam
8093 backend. This is the latest stable release of Samba. This
8094 is the version that all production Samba servers should be
8095 running for all current bug-fixes.
8097 ******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
8099 Beginning with Samba 3.0.2, passwords for accounts with a last
8100 change time (LCT-XXX in smbpasswd, sambaPwdLastSet attribute in
8101 ldapsam, etc...) of zero (0) will be regarded as uninitialized
8102 strings. This will cause authentication to fail for such
8103 accounts. If you have valid passwords that meet this criteria,
8104 you must update the last change time to a non-zero value. If you
8105 do not, then 'pdbedit --force-initialized-passwords' will disable
8106 these accounts and reset the password hashes to a string of X's.

8160 Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2
8162 =============================
8164 It has been confirmed that previous versions of Samba 3.0 are
8165 susceptible to a password initialization bug that could grant an
8166 attacker unauthorized access to a user account created by the
8167 mksmbpasswd.sh shell script.
8169 The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
8170 has assigned the name CAN-2004-0082 to this issue.
8172 Samba administrators not wishing to upgrade to the current
8173 version should download the 3.0.2 release, build the pdbedit
8176 root# pdbedit-3.0.2 --force-initialized-passwords
8178 This will disable all accounts not possessing a valid password
8179 (e.g. the password field has been set a string of X's).
8181 Samba servers running 3.0.2 are not vulnerable to this bug
8182 regardless of whether or not pdbedit has been used to sanitize
8185 Some of the more visible bugs in 3.0.1 addressed in the 3.0.2
8188 o Joining a Samba domain from Pre-SP2 Windows 2000 clients.
8189 o Logging onto a Samba domain from Windows XP clients.
8190 o Problems with the %U and %u smb.conf variables in relation to
8191 Windows 9x/ME clients.
8192 o Kerberos failures due to an invalid in memory keytab detection
8194 o Updates to the ntlm_auth tool.
8195 o Fixes for various SMB signing errors.
8196 o Better separation of WINS and DNS queries for domain controllers.
8197 o Issues with nss_winbind FreeBSD and Solaris.
8198 o Several crash bugs in smbd and winbindd.
8199 o Output formatting fixes for smbclient for better compatibility
8200 with scripts based on the 2.2 version.

8671 around issues with establishing trusts to a Windows 2003 domain.
8672 o Ensure we mangle names ending in '.' in hash2 mangling method.
8673 o Correct parsing issues with munged dial string.
8674 o Fix bugs in quota support for XFS.
8675 o Add a cleaner method for applications that need to provide
8676 name->SID mappings to do this via NSS rather than having to
8677 know the winbindd pipe protocol.
8678 o Adds a variant of the winbindd_getgroups() call called
8679 winbindd_getusersids() that provides direct SID->SIDs listing of
8680 a users supplementary groups. This is enough to allow non-Samba
8681 applications to do ACL checking.
8682 o Make sure we don't append the 'ldap suffix' when writing out the
8683 'ldap XXX suffix' values in SWAT (bug 328).
8684 o Fix renames across file systems.
8685 o Ensure that items in a list of strings containing whitespace are
8686 written out surrounded by single quotes. This means that both
8687 double and single quotes are now used to surround strings in
8689 o Enable SWAT to correctly determine if winbindd is running (bug
8691 o Include WWW-Authenticate field in 401 response for bad auth

8703 o Change the name of the job passed off to cups from "Test Page"
8704 to "smbprn.00000033 Test Page" so that we can get the smb
8705 jobid back. This allow users to delete jobs with cups printing
8706 backend (partial work on bug 770).
8707 o Fix build of winbindd with static pdb modules.
8708 o Retrieve the correct ACL group bits if the file has an ACL
8710 o Implement "net rpc group members": Get members of a domain group
8711 in human-readable format.
8712 o Add MacOSX (Darwin) specific charset module code.
8713 o Use samr_dispinfo(level == 1) for enumerating domain users so we
8714 can include the full name in gecos field (bug 587).
8715 o Add support for winbind's NSS library on FeeeBSD 5.1 (bug 797).

8732 with multiple PDU request rpc's broken over SMBwriteX calls
8734 o Fix incorrect smb flags2 for connections to pre-NT servers
8735 (causes smbclient to fail to OS2 for example) (bug 821).
8736 o Update version string in smbldap-tools Makefile to 0.8.2.
8737 o Correct a problem with "net rpc vampire" mis-parsing the
8738 alias member info reply.
8739 o Ensure the ${libdir} is created by the installclientlib script.

8772 The original 3.0.0 release notes follow
8773 =======================================
8774 WHATS NEW IN Samba 3.0.0
8776 =======================================
8782 1) Active Directory support. Samba 3.0 is now able to
8783 join a ADS realm as a member server and authenticate
8784 users using LDAP/Kerberos.
8786 2) Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate UNICODE on the wire
8787 and internally there is now a much better infrastructure for
8788 multi-byte and UNICODE character sets.
8790 3) New authentication system. The internal authentication system
8791 has been almost completely rewritten. Most of the changes are
8792 internal, but the new auth system is also very configurable.
8794 4) New default filename mangling system.
8796 5) A new "net" command has been added. It is somewhat similar to
8797 the "net" command in windows. Eventually we plan to replace
8798 numerous other utilities (such as smbpasswd) with subcommands
8801 6) Samba now negotiates NT-style status32 codes on the wire. This
8802 improves error handling a lot.
8804 7) Better Windows 2000/XP/2003 printing support including publishing
8805 printer attributes in active directory.
8807 8) New loadable module support for passdb backends and character
8810 9) New default dual-daemon winbindd support for better performance.
8812 10) Support for migrating from a Windows NT 4.0 domain to a Samba
8813 domain and maintaining user, group and domain SIDs.
8815 11) Support for establishing trust relationships with Windows NT 4.0
8818 12) Initial support for a distributed Winbind architecture using
8819 an LDAP directory for storing SID to uid/gid mappings.
8821 13) Major updates to the Samba documentation tree.
8823 14) Full support for client and server SMB signing to ensure
8824 compatibility with default Windows 2003 security settings.
8826 15) Improvement of ACL mapping features based on code donated by
8830 Plus lots of other improvements!
8833 Additional Documentation
8834 ------------------------
8836 Please refer to Samba documentation tree (included in the docs/
8837 subdirectory) for extensive explanations of installing, configuring
8838 and maintaining Samba 3.0 servers and clients. It is advised to
8839 begin with the Samba-HOWTO-Collection for overviews and specific
8840 tasks (the current book is up to approximately 400 pages) and to
8841 refer to the various man pages for information on individual options.
8843 We are very glad to be able to include the second edition of
8844 "Using Samba" by Jay Ts, Robert Eckstein, and David Collier-Brown
8845 (O'Reilly & Associates) in this release. The book is available
8846 on-line at http://samba.org/samba/docs/ and is included with
8847 the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). Thanks to the authors and
8848 publisher for making "Using Samba" under the GNU Free Documentation
8852 ######################################################################
8853 Upgrading from a previous Samba 3.0 beta
8854 ########################################
8856 Beginning with Samba 3.0.0beta3, the RID allocation functions
8857 have been moved into winbindd. Previously these were handled
8858 by each passdb backend. This means that winbindd must be running
8859 to automatically allocate RIDs for users and/or groups. Otherwise,
8860 smbd will use the 2.2 algorithm for generating new RIDs.
8862 If you are using 'passdb backend = tdbsam' with a previous Samba
8863 3.0 beta release (or possibly alpha), it may be necessary to
8864 move the RID_COUNTER entry from /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
8865 to winbindd_idmap.tdb. To do this:
8867 1) Ensure that winbindd_idmap.tdb exists (launch winbindd at least
8869 2) build tdbtool by executing 'make tdbtool' in the source/tdb/
8871 3) run: (note that 'tdb>' is the tool's prompt for input)
8873 root# ./tdbtool /usr/local/samba/private/passdb.tdb
8874 tdb> show RID_COUNTER
8878 [000] 0A 52 00 00 .R.
8880 tdb> move RID_COUNTER /usr/local/samba/var/locks/winbindd_idmap.tdb
8884 If you are using 'passdb backend = ldapsam', it will be necessary to
8885 store idmap entries in the LDAP directory as well (i.e. idmap backend
8886 = ldap). Refer to the 'net idmap' command for more information on
8887 migrating SID<->UNIX id mappings from one backend to another.
8889 If the RID_COUNTER record does not exist, then these instructions are
8890 unneccessary and the new RID_COUNTER record will be correctly generated

9071 introduced in Samba 3.0. Please remember to backup your existing
9072 ${lock directory}/*tdb before upgrading to Samba 3.0. Samba will
9073 upgrade databases as they are opened (if necessary), but downgrading
9074 from 3.0 to 2.2 is an unsupported path.
9076 Name Description Backup?
9077 ---- ----------- -------
9078 account_policy User policy settings yes
9079 gencache Generic caching db no
9080 group_mapping Mapping table from Windows yes
9081 groups/SID to unix groups
9082 winbindd_idmap ID map table from SIDS to UNIX yes

9089 command' created on a per print
9091 registry Read-only samba registry skeleton no
9092 that provides support for exporting
9093 various db tables via the winreg RPCs
9099 The following issues are known changes in behavior between Samba 2.2 and
9100 Samba 3.0 that may affect certain installations of Samba.
9102 1) When operating as a member of a Windows domain, Samba 2.2 would
9103 map any users authenticated by the remote DC to the 'guest account'
9104 if a uid could not be obtained via the getpwnam() call. Samba 3.0
9105 rejects the connection as NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE. There is no
9106 current work around to re-establish the 2.2 behavior.
9108 2) When adding machines to a Samba 2.2 controlled domain, the
9109 'add user script' was used to create the UNIX identity of the
9110 machine trust account. Samba 3.0 introduces a new 'add machine
9111 script' that must be specified for this purpose. Samba 3.0 will
9112 not fall back to using the 'add user script' in the absence of
9113 an 'add machine script'
9116 ######################################################################
9117 Passdb Backends and Authentication
9118 ##################################
9120 There have been a few new changes that Samba administrators should be
9121 aware of when moving to Samba 3.0.
9123 1) encrypted passwords have been enabled by default in order to
9124 inter-operate better with out-of-the-box Windows client
9125 installations. This does mean that either (a) a samba account
9126 must be created for each user, or (b) 'encrypt passwords = no'
9127 must be explicitly defined in smb.conf.
9129 2) Inclusion of new 'security = ads' option for integration
9130 with an Active Directory domain using the native Windows
9131 Kerberos 5 and LDAP protocols.
9133 MIT Kerberos 1.3.1 supports the ARCFOUR-HMAC-MD5 encryption
9134 type which is neccessary for servers on which the
9135 administrator password has not been changed, or Kerberos-enabled
9136 SMB connections to servers that require Kerberos SMB signing.
9137 Besides this one difference, either MIT or Heimdal Kerberos
9138 distributions are usable by Samba 3.0.
9141 Samba 3.0 also includes the possibility of setting up chains
9142 of authentication methods (auth methods) and account storage
9143 backends (passdb backend). Please refer to the smb.conf(5)
9144 man page for details. While both parameters assume sane default
9145 values, it is likely that you will need to understand what the
9146 values actually mean in order to ensure Samba operates correctly.
9148 The recommended passdb backends at this time are
9150 * smbpasswd - 2.2 compatible flat file format
9151 * tdbsam - attribute rich database intended as an smbpasswd
9152 replacement for stand alone servers
9153 * ldapsam - attribute rich account storage and retrieval
9154 backend utilizing an LDAP directory.
9155 * ldapsam_compat - a 2.2 backward compatible LDAP account
9158 Certain functions of the smbpasswd(8) tool have been split between the
9159 new smbpasswd(8) utility, the net(8) tool, and the new pdbedit(8)
9160 utility. See the respective man pages for details.
9163 ######################################################################
9167 This section outlines the new features affecting Samba / LDAP
9173 A new object class (sambaSamAccount) has been introduced to replace
9174 the old sambaAccount. This change aids us in the renaming of
9175 attributes to prevent clashes with attributes from other vendors.
9176 There is a conversion script (examples/LDAP/convertSambaAccount) to
9177 modify and LDIF file to the new schema.
9181 $ ldapsearch .... -b "ou=people,dc=..." > sambaAcct.ldif
9182 $ convertSambaAccount --sid=<Domain SID> \
9183 --input=sambaAcct.ldif --output=sambaSamAcct.ldif \
9184 --changetype=[modify|add]
9186 The <DOM SID> can be obtained by running 'net getlocalsid
9187 <DOMAINNAME>' on the Samba PDC as root. The changetype determines
9188 the format of the generated LDIF output--either create new entries
9189 or modify existing entries.
9191 The old sambaAccount schema may still be used by specifying the
9192 "ldapsam_compat" passdb backend. However, the sambaAccount and
9193 associated attributes have been moved to the historical section of
9194 the schema file and must be uncommented before use if needed.
9195 The 2.2 object class declaration for a sambaAccount has not changed
9196 in the 3.0 samba.schema file.
9198 Other new object classes and their uses include:
9200 * sambaDomain - domain information used to allocate rids
9201 for users and groups as necessary. The attributes are added
9202 in 'ldap suffix' directory entry automatically if
9203 an idmap uid/gid range has been set and the 'ldapsam'
9204 passdb backend has been selected.
9206 * sambaGroupMapping - an object representing the
9207 relationship between a posixGroup and a Windows
9208 group/SID. These entries are stored in the 'ldap
9209 group suffix' and managed by the 'net groupmap' command.
9211 * sambaUnixIdPool - created in the 'ldap idmap suffix' entry
9212 automatically and contains the next available 'idmap uid' and
9215 * sambaIdmapEntry - object storing a mapping between a
9216 SID and a UNIX uid/gid. These objects are created by the
9217 idmap_ldap module as needed.
9219 * sambaSidEntry - object representing a SID alone, as a Structural
9220 class on which to build the sambaIdmapEntry.
9223 New Suffix for Searching
9224 ------------------------
9226 The following new smb.conf parameters have been added to aid in directing
9227 certain LDAP queries when 'passdb backend = ldapsam://...' has been
9230 * ldap suffix - used to search for user and computer accounts
9231 * ldap user suffix - used to store user accounts
9232 * ldap machine suffix - used to store machine trust accounts
9233 * ldap group suffix - location of posixGroup/sambaGroupMapping entries
9234 * ldap idmap suffix - location of sambaIdmapEntry objects
9236 If an 'ldap suffix' is defined, it will be appended to all of the
9237 remaining sub-suffix parameters. In this case, the order of the suffix
9238 listings in smb.conf is important. Always place the 'ldap suffix' first
9241 Due to a limitation in Samba's smb.conf parsing, you should not surround
9242 the DN's with quotation marks.
9248 Samba 3.0 supports an ldap backend for the idmap subsystem. The
9249 following options would inform Samba that the idmap table should be
9250 stored on the directory server onterose in the "ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,
9255 idmap backend = ldap:ldap://onterose/
9256 ldap idmap suffix = ou=idmap,dc=plainjoe,dc=org
9257 idmap uid = 40000-50000
9258 idmap gid = 40000-50000
9260 This configuration allows winbind installations on multiple servers to
9261 share a uid/gid number space, thus avoiding the interoperability problems
9262 with NFS that were present in Samba 2.2.
9266 ######################################################################
9267 Trust Relationships and a Samba Domain
9268 ######################################
9270 Samba 3.0.0beta2 is able to utilize winbindd as the means of
9271 allocating uids and gids to trusted users and groups. More
9272 information regarding Samba's support for establishing trust
9273 relationships can be found in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection included
9274 in the docs/ directory of this release.
9276 First create your Samba PDC and ensure that everything is
9277 working correctly before moving on the trusts.
9279 To establish Samba as the trusting domain (named SAMBA) from a Windows NT
9280 4.0 domain named WINDOWS:
9282 1) create the trust account for SAMBA in "User Manager for Domains"
9283 2) connect the trust from the Samba domain using
9284 'net rpc trustdom establish GLASS'
9286 To create a trustlationship with SAMBA as the trusted domain:
9288 1) create the initial trust account for GLASS using
9289 'smbpasswd -a -i GLASS'. You may need to create a UNIX
9290 account for GLASS$ prior to this step (depending on your
9291 local configuration).
9292 2) connect the trust from a WINDOWS DC using "User Manager
9295 Now join winbindd on the Samba PDC to the SAMBA domain using
9296 the normal steps for adding a Samba server to an NT4 domain:
9297 (note that smbd & nmbd must be running at this point)
9299 root# net rpc join -U root
9300 Password: <enter root password from smbpasswd file here>
9302 Start winbindd and test the join with 'wbinfo -t'.
9304 Now test the trust relationship by connecting to the SAMBA DC
9305 (e.g. POGO) as a user from the WINDOWS domain:
9307 $ smbclient //pogo/netlogon -U Administrator -W WINDOWS
9310 Now connect to the WINDOWS DC (e.g. CRYSTAL) as a Samba user:
9312 $ smbclient //crystal/netlogon -U root -W WINDOWS
9315 ######################################################################
9319 Beginning with Samba3.0.0beta3, winbindd has been given new account
9320 manage functionality equivalent to the 'add user script' family of
9321 smb.conf parameters. The idmap design has also been changed to
9322 centralize control of foreign SID lookups and matching to UNIX
9326 Brief Description of Changes
9327 ----------------------------
9329 1) The sid_to_uid() family of functions (smbd/uid.c) have been
9330 reverted to the 2.2.x design. This means that when resolving a
9331 SID to a UID or similar mapping:
9333 a) First consult winbindd
9334 b) perform a local lookup only if winbindd fails to
9335 return a successful answer
9337 There are some variations to this, but these two rules generally
9340 2) All idmap lookups have been moved into winbindd. This means that
9341 a server must run winbindd (and support NSS) in order to achieve
9342 any mappings of SID to dynamically allocated UNIX ids. This was
9343 a conscious design choice.
9345 3) (OBSOLETE) New functions have been added to winbindd to emulate
9346 the 'add user script' family of smbd functions without requiring
9347 that external scripts be defined. This functionality is controlled
9348 by the 'winbind enable local accounts' smb.conf parameter (enabled
9351 However, this account management functionality is only supported
9352 in a local tdb (winbindd_idmap.tdb). If these new UNIX accounts
9353 must be shared among multiple Samba servers (such as a PDC and BDCs),
9354 it will be necessary to define your own 'add user script', et. al.
9355 programs that place the accounts/groups in some form of directory
9356 such as NIS or LDAP. This requirement was deemed beyond the scope
9357 of winbind's account management functions. Solutions for
9358 distributing UNIX system information have been deployed and tested
9359 for many years. We saw no need to reinvent the wheel.
9361 4) A member of a Samba controlled domain running winbindd is now able
9362 to map domain users directly onto existing UNIX accounts while still
9363 automatically creating accounts for trusted users and groups. This
9364 behavior is controlled by the 'winbind trusted domains only' smb.conf
9365 parameter (disabled by default to provide 2.2.x winbind behavior).
9367 5) Group mapping support is wrapped in the local_XX_to_XX() functions
9368 in smbd/uid.c. The reason that group mappings are not included
9369 in winbindd is because the purpose of Samba's group map is to
9370 match any Windows SID with an existing UNIX group. These UNIX
9371 groups can be created by winbindd (see next section), but the
