Release Notes for Samba 3.0.20a
Sept 30, 2005
===============================
Common bugs fixed in 3.0.20a include:
o Stability problems with winbindd.
o Crash bugs caused by incompatibilities on 64-bit systems.
o Missing files from directory listings on AIX servers
o User Manager interoperability problems.
o Minor build difficulties on various platforms such as
Solaris and OpenBSD,
Winbind, security = domain, and Active Directory
================================================
Recent security updates for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 have
changed the fashion in which user and group lists can be obtained
from domain controllers. In short, the RPC mechanisms used by
"security = domain" to retrieve users and groups is not compatible
with these changes. The "security = ads" configuration is not
affected by the Windows protocol changes.
Samba developers are actively working to correct this problem in
the 3.0.21 release. In the meantime, Administrators who are unable
to migrate to "security = ads" and must continue using "security =
domain", can define credentials to be used by winbindd for account
enumeration by executing the following command as root.
wbinfo --set-auth-user='DOMAIN\username%password'

Release Notes for Samba 3.0.20
Aug 19, 2005
==============================
Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.20 include:
o Support for several new Win32 rpc pipes.
o Improved support for OS/2 clients.
o New 'net rpc service' tool for managing Win32 services.
o Capability to set the owner on new files and directory
based on the parent's ownership.
o Experimental, asynchronous IO file serving support.
o Completed Support for Microsoft Print Migrator.
o New Winbind IDmap plugin (ad) for retrieving uid and gid
from AD servers which maintain the SFU user and group
attributes.
o Rewritten support for POSIX pathnames when utilizing
the Linux CIFS fs client.
o New asynchronous winbindd.
o Support for Microsoft Print Migrator.
o New Windows NT registry file I/O library.
o New user right (SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege) added.
o New "net share migrate" options.
What happened to 3.0.15 - 3.0.19?
==================================
After some discussion it was deemed that the amount of changes
going into the next Samba 3.0 release needed something to catch
people's attention. Skipping several releases was chosen as
the best solution with the least overhead. There will be no
3.0.15 - 3.0.19 ever released. The next production release
following 3.0.20 should be 3.0.21.
The original announcement about the version number change can
be found in the samba mailing list archives:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=samba&m=111721010206997&w=2
Asynchronous Winbind Implementation
===================================
Winbindd has been completely rewritten in this release to support
an almost completely non-blocking, asynchronous request/reply
model. This means that winbindd will scale much better in
large domain environments and on high latency networks. Neither
the client interface nor the command line tools (i.e. wbinfo) have
changed in their calling conventions or syntax. However, due to
internal structure changes, it is required (more so than normal)
that you install the nss_winbind.so library included in this release.
Support for Microsoft Print Migrator
====================================
Samba 3.0.20 includes full support for migrating printers from
Windows servers or other Samba servers via the Microsoft Print
Migrator tool. Restoring printers requires a working "add printer
command" defined in smb.conf. Current support also allows
administrators to create a master list of printer drivers which
can be restored in bulk on new (or existing) Samba installations.
Asynchronous IO Support
=======================
Experimental support for async IO has been added to smbd for
certain platforms. To enable this new feature, Samba must be
compiled to include the --with-aio-support configure option.
In addition, the "aio read size" and "aio write size" to non-zero
values. See the smb.conf(5) man page for more details on these
settings.

Release Notes for Samba 3.0.12
Mar 18, 2005
==============================
Common bugs fixed in 3.0.12 include:
o Winbind failures when using 'disable netbios = yes'
o Failure to establish a trust relationship via 'net rpc trust
establish'
o Various portability & compiler issues.
o Read only file deletion failure caused by new delete semantics
in Windows XP SP2 and the MS 04-044 security hotfix.
o Error messages from shared Excel workbooks residing on Samba
file shares.
o Missing files in the output of smbclient -c 'dir' when run
against Windows file servers.
o Inability for Print Administrators to pause/resume/purge print
queues.
Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.12:
o Performance enhancements when serving directories containing
large number of files.
o MS-DFS support added to smbclient.
o More performance improvements when using Samba/OpenLDAP based
DC's via the 'ldapsam:trusted=yes' option.
o Support for the Novell NDS universal password when using the
ldapsam passdb backend.
o New 'net rpc trustdom {add,del}' functionality to eventually
replace 'smbpasswd {-a,-x} -i'.
o New libsmbclient functionality.
=======================
Large Directory Support
=======================
Samba 3.0.12pre1 introduces a specific mechanism for dealing
with file services that frequently contain a large number of files
per directory. Historically Samba's performance has suffered
in such environments due to the translation from case
insensitive lookups by Windows client to the case sensitive
storage mechanisms used by UNIX filesystems.
Configuration details along with a short HOWTO can be found at:
http://www.samba.org/samba/ftp/HOWTO/Samba-LargeDirectory-HOWTO
==================================
libsmbclient Binary Compatibility
==================================
Please note that a change has been made to the _SMBCCTX structure
in source/include/libsmbclient.h. This change is not backwards
compatible with applications linked against the libsmbclient.so
library from Samba 3.0.11. However, it is compatible with all
other Samba 3.0.x releases. This means that it will be most likely
be necessary to recompile any applications linked against the
3.0.11 version of the library.

Release Notes for Samba 3.0.11
Feb 5, 2005
==============================
Common bugs fixed in 3.0.11 include:
o Crash in smbd when using CUPS printing.
o Parsing error of other SIDs included in the user_info_3
structure returned from domain controllers.
o Inefficiencies when searching non-AD LDAP directories.
o Failure to expand variables in user domain attributes
in tdbsam and ldapsam.
o Memory leaks.
o Failure to retrieve certain attribute when migrating from
a Windows DC to a Samba DC via 'net rpc vampire'.
o Numerous printing bugs bugs including memory
bloating on large/busy print servers.
o Compatibility issues with Exchange 5.5 SP4.
o sendfile fixes.
Additional features introduced in Samba 3.0.11:
o Winbindd performance improvements.
o More 'net rpc vampire' functionality.
o Support for the Windows privilege model to assign rights
to specific SIDs.
o New administrative options to the 'net rpc' command.
============
LDAP Changes
============
If "ldap user suffix" or "ldap machine suffix" are defined in
smb.conf, all user-accounts must reside below the user suffix,
and all machine and inter-domain trust-accounts must be located
below the machine suffix. Previous Samba releases would fall
back to searching the 'ldap suffix' in some cases.
===============
Privilege Model
===============
Samba 3.0.11 supports the following assignable rights
SeMachineAccountPrivilege Add machines to domain
SePrintOperatorPrivilege Manage printers
SeAddUsersPrivilege Add users and groups to the domain
SeRemoteShutdownPrivilege Force shutdown from a remote system
SeDiskOperatorPrivilege Manage disk shares
These rights can be assigned to arbitrary users or groups
via the 'net rpc rights grant/revoke' command. More details
of Samba's privilege implementation can be found in the
Samba-HOWTO-Collection.

Release Notes for Samba 3.0.8
Nov 7, 2004
=============================
Common bugs fixed in 3.0.8 include:
o Compile fixes for HP-UX
o Fixes for the printer publishing code used when joined to
an AD domain.
o Incompatibilities with file system quotas.
o Several bugs in the spoolss printing code and print system
backends.
o Inconsistencies in the username map functionality when
configured on domain member servers.
o Various compile warnings and errors on various platforms.
o Fixes for kerberos interoperability with Windows 200x
domains when using DES keys.
o Fix for CAN-2004-0930 -- smbd remote DoS vulnerability.
o Fix for CAN-2004-0882 -- possible buffer overrun in smbd.
New features included in the 3.0.8 release are:
o New migration functionality added the the net tool
for files/directories, printers, and shares.
o New experimental idmap backend for assigning uids/gids
directly based on the user/group RID when acting as a
member of single domain without any trusts.
o Additional printer migration support for XP/2003 platforms.
===========================
Change in Winbindd Behavior
===========================
All usernames returned by winbindd are now converted to lower
case for better consistency. This means any winbind installation
relying on the winbind username will need to rename existing
directories and/or files based on the username (%u and %U) to lower
case (e.g. mv $name `echo $name | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`). This may
include mail spool files, home directories, valid user lines in
smb.conf, etc....
======================
Change in Username Map
======================
Previous Samba releases would only support reading the fully qualified
username (e.g. DOMAIN\user) from the username map when performing a
kerberos login from a client. However, when looking up a map
entry for a user authenticated by NTLM[SSP], only the login name would be
used for matches. This resulted in inconsistent behavior sometimes
even on the same server.
Samba 3.0.8 obeys the following rules when applying the username
map functionality:
* When performing local authentication, the username map is
applied to the login name before attempting to authenticate
the connection.
* When relying upon a external domain controller for validating
authentication requests, smbd will apply the username map
to the fully qualified username (i.e. DOMAIN\user) only
after the user has been successfully authenticated.

o Jeremy Allison
* Ensure extended security bit is on only if we negotiated
extended security.
* Simplify statcache to use an in-memory tdb.
* If you're selecting a hash algorithm for tdb, you need
to do it at open time.
