 Release Announcements

 This is the first stable release of Samba 3.2.0.

 Please be aware that Samba is now distributed under the version 3
 of the new GNU General Public License.  You may refer to the COPYING
 file that accompanies these release notes for further licensing details.

 Thanks!

 Ubuntu Hardy packages are available from my PPA:
 http://launchpad.net/~pgquiles/+archive


Are these some official work made under the umbrella of Canonical?

(being hosted on Launchpad, which is well known to be Canonical
(non-free) baby, makes this fairly non obvious whether this is an
individual work or if it's related to official releases of UbuntuI
doubt that there will be an official 3.2 package for Hardy, though)

Are these based on the current packaging of Samba 3.0.* series for
various Ubuntu flavours?

Are these based on the work done by Debian maintainers and currently
sitting in Debian experimental?

For those who care and want some kind of official packages, there will
be Debian packages when they're ready. Certainly not as fast as they
are SuSe packages, mostly because Debian maintainers are not paid for
the work they're doing and have to do their work on their free time,
but these packages will come and will be announced.

We might be late because we have to decide whether we prepare packages
for the upcoming lenny release of Debian. A main blocker could be
GPLv3 as it has some impact on packages that are built against
libsmbclient (such as KDE packages).

Yes. It's based on the 3.2.0rc2 packaging from Debian you do. Look at  
the changelog :-)

I prepared those packages for my own use. They are 100% unofficial and  
unsupported.


The reason I build them and make them available from Launchpad is very  
simple: it's easier to me to make them publicly available from my PPA  
than to scp them to each and every machine I want to install them. I'm  
lazy, I know :-)

Jerry, thanks for the assurance on documentation.

On a different note though, we got Samba 3.2.0 running with little 
effort (already discussed here). Ours is a compiled setup on an Ubuntu 
8.04 Server with OpenLDAP and slightly customized smbldap-tools and etc. 
We have built a set of scripts for the automation of compilation of all 
these components to our taste.


Cheers for the fascinate product, Samba 3.2.0 !

Lasantha.

Ah, great. So, no real duplicate work, then, which is fine.

Did you have any specific problem to address or was the porting work
just something like untar, copy debian/, build ?

Release Announcements
=

This is the first stable release of Samba 3.2.0.

Please be aware that Samba is now distributed under the version 3
of the new GNU General Public License.  You may refer to the COPYING
file that accompanies these release notes for further licensing details.

Major enhancements in Samba 3.2.0 include:

  File Serving:
  o Use of IDL generated parsing layer for several DCE/RPC
interfaces.
  o Removal of the 1024 byte limit on pathnames and 256 byte limit on
filename components to honor the MAX_PATH setting from the host OS.
  o Introduction of a registry based configuration system.
  o Improved CIFS Unix Extensions support.
  o Experimental support for file serving clusters.
  o Support for IPv6 in the server, and client tools and libraries.
  o Support for storing alternate data streams in xattrs.
  o Encrypted SMB transport in client tools and libraries, and server.
  o Support for Vista clients authenticating via Kerberos.

  Winbind and Active Directory Integration:
  o Full support for Windows 2003 cross-forest, transitive trusts
and one-way domain trusts.
  o Support for userPrincipalName logons via pam_winbind and NSS
lookups.
  o Expansion of nested domain groups via NSS calls.
  o Support for Active Directory LDAP Signing policy.
  o New LGPL Winbind client library (libwbclient.so).
  o Support for establishing interdomain trust relationships with
Windows 2008.

  Joining:
  o New NetApi library for domain join related queries (libnetapi.so)
and example GTK+ Domain join gui.
  o New client and server support for remotely joining and unjoining
Domains.
  o Support for joining into Windows 2008 domains.

  Users  Groups:
  o New ldb backend for local group mapping tables
  o Raised level of security defaults for authentication operations.
  o New NetApi library for user account related queries.



Now Licensed under the GNU GPLv3


The Samba Team has adopted the Version 3 of the GNU General Public
License for the 3.2 and later releases.   The GPLv3 is the updated
version of the GPLv2 license under which Samba is currently
distributed. It has been updated to improve compatibility with other
licenses and to make it easier to adopt internationally, and is an
improved version of the license to better suit the needs of Free
Software in the 21st Century.

The original announcement is available on-line at

http://news.samba.org/announcements/samba_gplv3/


New Security Defaults for Authentication


Support for LanMan passwords is now disabled in both client and server
applications.  Additionally, clear text authentication requests are
disabled by default in client utilities such as smbclient and all
libsmbclient based applications.  This will affect connection both
to and from hosts running DOS, Windows 9x/ME, and OS/2.  Please refer
to the Changes section for details on the exact parameters that were
updated.


Registry Configuration Backend
==

Samba is now able to use a registry based configuration backed to
supplement smb.conf settings.  This feature may be enabled by setting
config backend = registry in the [global] section of smb.conf for a
registry only configuration, or by specifying include = registry to
include global options from registry for a mixed setup.

The new parameter registry shares = yes in the [global] section of
smb.conf can be used to activate share definitions from registry.
These shares are loaded on demand by the server. Registry shares are
automatically activated by the global registry options above.

The configuration stored in registry can be conveniently managed using
the net conf command.

More information may be obtained from the smb.conf(5) and net(8) man
pages.


Removed Features


Both the Python bindings and the libmsrpc shared library have been
removed from the tree due to lack of an official maintainer.

As smbfs is no longer supported in current kernel versions, smbmount has
been removed in this Samba version. Please use cifs (mount.cifs) instead.
See examples/scripts/mount/mount.smbfs as an example for a wrapper which
calls mount.cifs instead of smbmount/mount.smbfs.


Modified API for libsmbclient
==

Maintaining ABI compatibility for libsmbclient has become increasingly
difficult to accomplish, while also keeping the code organization such that it
is easily readable.  Towards the goal of maintaining ABI compatibility and
also keeping the code easy to maintain and enhance, the API has been enhanced.
