Release Announcements
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
This is the first pre release of Samba 4.14. 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 4.13 will be the next version of the Samba suite.
|

UPGRADING
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
|
|
NEW FEATURES/CHANGES
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
|
|
Client Group Policy
|
|
-------------------
|
|
This release extends Samba to support Group Policy functionality for Winbind
|
|
clients. Active Directory Administrators can set policies that apply Sudoers
|
|
configuration, and cron jobs to run hourly, daily, weekly or monthly.
|
|
|
|
To enable the application of Group Policies on a client, set the global
|
|
smb.conf option 'apply group policies' to 'yes'. Policies are applied on an
|
|
interval of every 90 minutes, plus a random offset between 0 and 30 minutes.
|
|
|
|
Policies applied by Samba are 'non-tattooing', meaning that changes can be
|
|
reverted by executing the `samba-gpupdate --unapply` command. Policies can be
|
|
re-applied using the `samba-gpupdate --force` command.
|
|
To view what policies have been or will be applied to a system, use the
|
|
`samba-gpupdate --rsop` command.
|
|
|
|
Administration of Samba policy requires that a Samba ADMX template be uploaded
|
|
to the SYSVOL share. The samba-tool command `samba-tool gpo admxload` is
|
|
provided as a convenient method for adding this policy. Once uploaded, policies
|
|
can be modified in the Group Policy Management Editor under Computer
|
|
Configuration/Policies/Administrative Templates.
|
|
|
|
CTDB CHANGES
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
* The NAT gateway and LVS features now uses the term "leader" to refer
|
|
to the main node in a group through which traffic is routed and
|
|
"follower" for other members of a group. The command for
|
|
determining the leader has changed to "ctdb natgw leader" (from
|
|
"ctdb natgw master"). The configuration keyword for indicating that
|
|
a node can not be the leader of a group has changed to
|
|
"follower-only" (from "slave-only"). Identical changes were made
|
|
for LVS.
|
|
|
|
* Remove "ctdb isnotrecmaster" command. It isn't used by CTDB's
|
|
scripts and can be checked by users with "ctdb pnn" and "ctdb
|
|
recmaster".
|
|
|
|
Python 3.6 or later required
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Samba's minimum runtime requirement for python was raised to Python
|
|
3.6 with samba 4.13. Samba 4.14 raises this minimum version to Python
|
|
3.6 also to build Samba. It is no longer possible to build Samba
|
|
(even just the file server) with Python versions 2.6 and 2.7.
|
|
|
|
As Python 2.7 has been End Of Life upstream since April 2020, Samba
|
|
is dropping ALL Python 2.x support in this release.
|
|
|
|
|
|
NT4-like 'classic' Samba domain controllers
|
|
-------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Samba 4.13 deprecates Samba's original domain controller mode.
|
|
|
|
Sites using Samba as a Domain Controller should upgrade from the
|
|
NT4-like 'classic' Domain Controller to a Samba Active Directory DC
|
|
to ensure full operation with modern windows clients.
|
|
|
|
SMBv1 only protocol options deprecated
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
A number of smb.conf parameters for less-secure authentication methods
|
|
which are only possible over SMBv1 are deprecated in this release.
|
|
|
|
REMOVED FEATURES
|
|
================
|
|
