Release Notes for Samba 3.6.0pre1
|
|
July 28, 2010
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the first preview release of Samba 3.6. 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/.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Major enhancements in Samba 3.6.0 include:
|
|
|
|
|
|
SMB2 support
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
SMB2 support in 3.6.0 is fully functional (with one ommission),
|
|
and can be enabled by setting:
|
|
|
|
max protocol = SMB2
|
|
|
|
in the [global] section of your smb.conf and re-starting
|
|
Samba. All features should work over SMB2 except the modification
|
|
of user quotas using the Windows quota management tools.
|
|
|
|
As this is the first release containing what we consider
|
|
to be a fully featured SMB2 protocol, we are not enabling
|
|
this by default, but encourage users to enable SMB2 and
|
|
test it. Once we have enough confirmation from Samba
|
|
users and OEMs that SMB2 support is stable in wide user
|
|
testing we will enable SMB2 by default in a future Samba
|
|
release.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Internal Winbind passdb changes
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Winbind has been changed to use the internal samr and lsa rpc pipe to get
|
|
local user and group information instead of calling passdb functions. The
|
|
reason is to use more of our infrastructure and test this infrastructure by
|
|
using it. With this approach more code in Winbind is shared.
|
|
|
|
|
|
SMB Traffic Analyzer
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
Added the new SMB Traffic Analyzer (SMBTA) VFS module protocol 2
|
|
featuring encryption, multiple arguments, and easier parseability. A new
|
|
tool 'smbta-util' has been created to control the encryption behaviour
|
|
of SMBTA. For compatibility, SMBTA by default operates on version 1.
|
|
There are programs consuming the data that the module sends.
