@ -25,6 +25,92 @@ The ldap server has support for the LDAP_SERVER_NOTIFICATION_OID
|
||||
control. This can be used to monitor the active directory database
|
||||
for changes.
|
||||
|
||||
VLV - Virtual List View
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The VLV Control allows applications to page the LDAP directory in the
|
||||
way you might expect a live phone book application to operate, without
|
||||
first downloading the entire directory.
|
||||
|
||||
DRS Replication for the AD DC
|
||||
-----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
DRS Replication in Samba 4.5 is now much more efficient in handling
|
||||
linked attributes, particularly in large domains with over 1000 group
|
||||
memberships or other links.
|
||||
|
||||
Replication is also much more reliable in the handling of tree
|
||||
renames, such as the rename of an organizational unit containing many
|
||||
users. Extensive tests have been added to ensure this code remains
|
||||
reliable, particularly in the case of conflicts between objects added
|
||||
with the same name on different servers.
|
||||
|
||||
Schema updates are also handled much more reliably.
|
||||
|
||||
replPropertyMetaData Changes
|
||||
----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
During the development of the DRS replication, tests showed that Samba
|
||||
stores the replPropertyMetaData object incorrectly. To address this,
|
||||
be aware that dbcheck will now detect and offer to fix all objects in
|
||||
the domain for this error.
|
||||
|
||||
Linked attributes on deleted objects
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
In Active Directory, an object that has been tombstoned or recycled
|
||||
has no linked attributes. However, Samba incorrectly maintained such
|
||||
links, slowing replication and run-time performance. dbcheck now
|
||||
offers to remove such links, and they are no longer kept after the
|
||||
object is tombstoned or recycled.
|
||||
|
||||
Improved AD DC performance
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Many other improvements have been made to our LDAP database layer in
|
||||
the AD DC, to improve performance, both during samba-tool domain
|
||||
provision and at runtime.
|
||||
|
||||
Other dbcheck improvements
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- samba-tool dbcheck can now find and fix a missing or corrupted
|
||||
'deleted objects' container.
|
||||
- BUG 11433: samba-dbcheck no longer offers to resort auxiliary class values
|
||||
in objectClass as these were then re-sorted at the next dbcheck indefinitely.
|
||||
|
||||
Tombstone Reanimation
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Samba now supports tombstone reanimation, a feature in the AD DC
|
||||
allowing tombstones, that is objects which have been deleted, to be
|
||||
restored with the original SID and GUID still in place.
|
||||
|
||||
Multiple DNS Forwarders on the AD DC
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Multiple DNS forwarders are now supported on the AD DC, allowing
|
||||
samba to fall back between two different DNS servers for forwarded queries.
|
||||
|
||||
Password quality plugin support in the AD DC
|
||||
--------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The check password script now operates correctly in the AD DC (this
|
||||
was silently ignored in past releases)
|
||||
|
||||
pwdLastSet is now correctly honoured
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
BUG 9654: the pwdLastSet attribute is now correctly handled (this previously
|
||||
permitted passwords that next expire).
|
||||
|
||||
net ads dns unregister
|
||||
----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
It is now possible to remove the DNS entries created with 'net ads register'
|
||||
with the matching 'net ads unregister' command.
|
||||
