In particular this commit focuses on: Actually adding the 'const' to the passdb interface, and the flow-on changes. Also kill off the 'disp_info' stuff, as its no longer used. While these changes have been mildly tested, and are pretty small, any assistance in this is appreciated. ---- These changes introduces a large dose of 'const' to the Samba tree. There are a number of good reasons to do this: - I want to allow the SAM_ACCOUNT structure to move from wasteful pstrings and fstrings to allocated strings. We can't do that if people are modifying these outputs, as they may well make assumptions about getting pstrings and fstrings - I want --with-pam_smbpass to compile with a slightly sane volume of warnings, currently its pretty bad, even in 2.2 where is compiles at all. - Tridge assures me that he no longer opposes 'const religion' based on the ability to #define const the problem away. - Changed Get_Pwnam(x,y) into two variants (so that the const parameter can work correctly): - Get_Pwnam(const x) and Get_Pwnam_Modify(x). - Reworked smbd/chgpasswd.c to work with these mods, passing around a 'struct passwd' rather than the modified username --- This finishes this line of commits off, your tree should now compile again :-) Andrew Bartlett (This used to be commit c95f5aeb9327347674589ae313b75bee3bf8e317)
This extension provides a "wins" module for NSS on glibc2/Linux. This allows you to use a WINS entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf for hostname resolution, allowing you to resolve netbios names via start unix gethostbyname() calls. The end result is that you can use netbios names as host names in unix apps. 1) run configure 2) run "make nsswitch" 3) cp nsswitch/libnss_wins.so /lib/libnss_wins.so.2 4) add a wins entry to the hosts line in /etc/nsswitch.conf 5) use it tridge@linuxcare.com
