A few things in this commit:
cleanup some of the code in net_rpc_join re const warnings and fstrings. Passdb: Make the %u and %U substituions in passdb work. This is done by declaring these paramters to be 'const' and doing the substitution manually. I'm told this is us going full circle, but I can't really see a better way. Finally these things actually seem to work properly... Make the lanman code use the pdb's recorded values for homedir etc rather than the values from lp_*() Add code to set the plaintext password in the passdb, where it can decide how to store/set it. For use with a future 'ldap password change' option, or somthing like that... Add pdb_unix, so as to remove the 'not in passdb' special cases from the local_lookup_*() code. Quite small, as it uses the new 'struct passwd -> SAM_ACCOUNT' code that is now in just one place. (also used by pdb_smbpasswd) Other: Fix up the adding of [homes] at session setup time to actually pass the right string, that is the unix homedir, not the UNC path. Fix up [homes] so that for winbind users is picks the correct name. (bad interactions with the default domain code previously) Change the rpc_server/srv_lsa_nt.c code to match NT when for the SATUS_NONE_MAPPED reply: This was only being triggered on no queries, now it is on the 'no mappings' (ie all mappings failed). Checked against Win2k. Policy Question: Should SID -> unix_user.234/unix_group.364 be considered a mapping or not? Currently it isn't. Andrew Bartlett (This used to be commit c28668068b5a3b3cf3c4317e5fb32ec9957f3e34)
