Release Announcements
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
This is the first preview release of Samba 4.7. This is *not*
|
|
intended for production environments and is designed for testing
|
|
purposes only. Please report any defects via the Samba bug reporting
|
|
system at https://bugzilla.samba.org/.
|
|
|
|
Samba 4.7 will be the next version of the Samba suite.

UPGRADING
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
|
|
NEW FEATURES/CHANGES
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
The "strict sync" global parameter has been changed from
|
|
a default of "no" to "yes". This means smbd will by default
|
|
obey client requests to synchronize unwritten data in operating
|
|
system buffers safely onto disk. This is a safer default setting
|
|
for modern SMB1/2/3 clients.
|
|
|
|
Authentication and Authorization audit support
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Detailed authentication and authorization audit information is now
|
|
logged to Samba's debug logs under the "auth_audit" debug class,
|
|
including in particular the client IP address triggering the audit
|
|
line. Additionally, if Samba is compiled against the jansson JSON
|
|
library, a JSON representation is logged under the "auth_json_audit"
|
|
debug class.
|
|
|
|
Audit support is comprehensive for all authentication and
|
|
authorisation of user accounts in the Samba Active Directory Domain
|
|
Controller, as well as the implicit authentication in password
|
|
changes. In the file server and classic/NT4 domain controller, NTLM
|
|
authentication, SMB and RPC authorization is covered, however password
|
|
changes are not at this stage, and this support is not currently
|
|
backed by a testsuite.
|
|
|
