+
+<title>Definition of NetBIOS Protocol and Name Resolution Modes</title>
+
+<sect1>
+<title>NETBIOS</title>
+
+<para>
+NetBIOS runs over the following tranports: TCP/IP; NetBEUI and IPX/SPX.
+Samba only uses NetBIOS over TCP/IP. For details on the TCP/IP NetBIOS
+Session Service NetBIOS Datagram Service, and NetBIOS Names, see
+rfc1001.txt and rfc1002.txt.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+NetBEUI is a raw NetBIOS frame protocol implementation that allows NetBIOS
+datagrams to be sent out over the 'wire' embedded within LLC frames.
+NetBEUI is not required when using NetBIOS over TCP/IP protocols and it
+is preferable NOT to install NetBEUI if it can be avoided.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+IPX/SPX is also not required when using NetBIOS over TCP/IP, and it is
+preferable NOT to install the IPX/SPX transport unless you are using Novell
+servers. At the very least, it is recommended that you do not install
+'NetBIOS over IPX/SPX'.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+[When installing Windows 95, you will find that NetBEUI and IPX/SPX are
+installed as the default protocols. This is because they are the simplest
+to manage: no Windows 95 user-configuration is required].
+</para>
+
+<para>
+NetBIOS applications (such as samba) offer their services (for example,
+SMB file and print sharing) on a NetBIOS name. They must claim this name
+on the network before doing so. The NetBIOS session service will then
+accept connections on the application's behalf (on the NetBIOS name
+claimed by the application). A NetBIOS session between the application
+and the client can then commence.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+NetBIOS names consist of 15 characters plus a 'type' character. This is
+similar, in concept, to an IP address and a TCP port number, respectively.
+A NetBIOS-aware application on a host will offer different services under
+different NetBIOS name types, just as a host will offer different TCP/IP
+services on different port numbers.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+NetBIOS names must be claimed on a network, and must be defended. The use
+of NetBIOS names is most suitable on a single subnet; a Local Area Network
+or a Wide Area Network.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+NetBIOS names are either UNIQUE or GROUP. Only one application can claim a
+UNIQUE NetBIOS name on a network.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+There are two kinds of NetBIOS Name resolution: Broadcast and Point-to-Point.
+</para>
+
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>
+<title>BROADCAST NetBIOS</title>
+
+<para>
+Clients can claim names, and therefore offer services on successfully claimed
+names, on their broadcast-isolated subnet. One way to get NetBIOS services
+(such as browsing: see ftp.microsoft.com/drg/developr/CIFS/browdiff.txt; and
+SMB file/print sharing: see cifs4.txt) working on a LAN or WAN is to make
+your routers forward all broadcast packets from TCP/IP ports 137, 138 and 139.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+This, however, is not recommended. If you have a large LAN or WAN, you will
+find that some of your hosts spend 95 percent of their time dealing with
+broadcast traffic. [If you have IPX/SPX on your LAN or WAN, you will find
+that this is already happening: a packet analyzer will show, roughly
+every twelve minutes, great swathes of broadcast traffic!].
+</para>
+
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>
+<title>NBNS NetBIOS</title>
+
+<para>
+rfc1001.txt describes, amongst other things, the implementation and use
+of, a 'NetBIOS Name Service'. NT/AS offers 'Windows Internet Name Service'
+which is fully rfc1001/2 compliant, but has had to take specific action
+with certain NetBIOS names in order to make it useful. (for example, it
+deals with the registration of <1c> <1d> <1e> names all in different ways.
+I recommend the reading of the Microsoft WINS Server Help files for full
+details).
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The use of a WINS server cuts down on broadcast network traffic for
+NetBIOS name resolution. It has the effect of pulling all the broadcast
+isolated subnets together into a single NetBIOS scope, across your LAN
+or WAN, while avoiding the use of TCP/IP broadcast packets.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+When you have a WINS server on your LAN, WINS clients will be able to
+contact the WINS server to resolve NetBIOS names. Note that only those
+WINS clients that have registered with the same WINS server will be
+visible. The WINS server _can_ have static NetBIOS entries added to its
+database (usually for security reasons you might want to consider putting
+your domain controllers or other important servers as static entries,
+but you should not rely on this as your sole means of security), but for
+the most part, NetBIOS names are registered dynamically.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+This provides some confusion for lots of people, and is worth mentioning
+here: a Browse Server is NOT a WINS Server, even if these services are
+implemented in the same application. A Browse Server _needs_ a WINS server
+because a Browse Server is a WINS client, which is _not_ the same thing].
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Clients can claim names, and therefore offer services on successfully claimed
+names, on their broadcast-isolated subnet. One way to get NetBIOS services
+(such as browsing: see ftp.microsoft.com/drg/developr/CIFS/browdiff.txt; and
+SMB file/print sharing: see cifs6.txt) working on a LAN or WAN is to make
+your routers forward all broadcast packets from TCP/IP ports 137, 138 and 139.
+You will find, however, if you do this on a large LAN or a WAN, that your
+network is completely swamped by NetBIOS and browsing packets, which is why
+WINS was developed to minimise the necessity of broadcast traffic.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+WINS Clients therefore claim names from the WINS server. If the WINS
+server allows them to register a name, the client's NetBIOS session service
+can then offer services on this name. Other WINS clients will then
+contact the WINS server to resolve a NetBIOS name.

+<title>Group mapping HOWTO</title>
+
+<para>
+Starting with Samba 3.0 alpha 2, a new group mapping function is available. The
+current method (likely to change) to manage the groups is a new command called
+<command>smbgroupedit</command>.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The first immediate reason to use the group mapping on a PDC, is that
+the <command>domain admin group</command> of <filename>smb.conf</filename> is
+now gone. This parameter was used to give the listed users local admin rights
+on their workstations. It was some magic stuff that simply worked but didn't
+scale very well for complex setups.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Let me explain how it works on NT/W2K, to have this magic fade away.
+When installing NT/W2K on a computer, the installer program creates some users
+and groups. Notably the 'Administrators' group, and gives to that group some
+privileges like the ability to change the date and time or to kill any process
+(or close too) running on the local machine. The 'Administrator' user is a
+member of the 'Administrators' group, and thus 'inherit' the 'Administrators'
+group privileges. If a 'joe' user is created and become a member of the
+'Administrator' group, 'joe' has exactly the same rights as 'Administrator'.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+When a NT/W2K machine is joined to a domain, during that phase, the "Domain
+Administrators' group of the PDC is added to the 'Administrators' group of the
+workstation. Every members of the 'Domain Administrators' group 'inherit' the
+rights of the 'Administrators' group when logging on the workstation.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+You are now wondering how to make some of your samba PDC users members of the
+'Domain Administrators' ? That's really easy.
+</para>
+
+<orderedlist>
+<listitem><para>create a unix group (usually in <filename>/etc/group</filename>), let's call it domadm</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>add to this group the users that must be Administrators. For example if you want joe,john and mary, your entry in <filename>/etc/group</filename> will look like:</para>
+
+<para><programlisting>
+domadm:x:502:joe,john,mary
+</programlisting></para>
+
+</listitem>
+
+<listitem><para>Map this domadm group to the <command>domain admins</command> group by running the command:</para>
+
+<para><command>smbgroupedit -c "Domain Admins" -u domadm</command></para></listitem>
+
+</orderedlist>
+
+<para>You're set, joe, john and mary are domain administrators !</para>
+
+<para>
+Like the Domain Admins group, you can map any arbitrary Unix group to any NT
+group. You can also make any Unix group a domain group. For example, on a domain
+member machine (an NT/W2K or a samba server running winbind), you would like to
+give access to a certain directory to some users who are member of a group on
+your samba PDC. Flag that group as a domain group by running:
+</para>
+
+<para><command>smbgroupedit -a unixgroup -td</command></para>
+
+<para>You can list the various groups in the mapping database like this</para>
+<para><command>smbgroupedit -v</command></para>

- http://carol.wins.uva.nl/~leeuw/samba/warp.html</ulink>.</para>

-
- <para>Installing the first two together with the base operating
- system on a blank system is explained in the Warp manual. If Warp
- has already been installed, but you now want to install the
- networking support, use the "Selective Install for Networking"
- object in the "System Setup" folder.</para>
-
- <para>Adding the "NetBIOS over TCP/IP" driver is not described
- in the manual and just barely in the online documentation. Start
- MPTS.EXE, click on OK, click on "Configure LAPS" and click
- on "IBM OS/2 NETBIOS OVER TCP/IP" in 'Protocols'. This line
- is then moved to 'Current Configuration'. Select that line,
- click on "Change number" and increase it from 0 to 1. Save this
- configuration.</para>
-
- <para>If the Samba server(s) is not on your local subnet, you
- can optionally add IP names and addresses of these servers
- to the "Names List", or specify a WINS server ('NetBIOS
- Nameserver' in IBM and RFC terminology). For Warp Connect you
- may need to download an update for 'IBM Peer' to bring it on
- the same level as Warp 4. See the webpage mentioned above.</para>
- </sect2>
-
- <sect2>
- <title>How can I configure OS/2 Warp 3 (not Connect),
- OS/2 1.2, 1.3 or 2.x for Samba?</title>
-
- <para>You can use the free Microsoft LAN Manager 2.2c Client
- for OS/2 from
- <ulink url="ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/BusSys/Clients/LANMAN.OS2/">
- ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/BusSys/Clients/LANMAN.OS2/</ulink>.
- See <ulink url="http://carol.wins.uva.nl/~leeuw/lanman.html">
- http://carol.wins.uva.nl/~leeuw/lanman.html</ulink> for
- more information on how to install and use this client. In
- a nutshell, edit the file \OS2VER in the root directory of
- the OS/2 boot partition and add the lines:</para>
-
- <para><programlisting>
- 20=setup.exe
- 20=netwksta.sys
- 20=netvdd.sys
- </programlisting></para>
-
- <para>before you install the client. Also, don't use the
- included NE2000 driver because it is buggy. Try the NE2000
- or NS2000 driver from
- <ulink url="ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/os2/network/ndis/">
- ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/os2/network/ndis/</ulink> instead.
- </para>
- </sect2>
-
- <sect2>
- <title>Are there any other issues when OS/2 (any version)
- is used as a client?</title>
-
- <para>When you do a NET VIEW or use the "File and Print
- Client Resource Browser", no Samba servers show up. This can
- be fixed by a patch from <ulink
- url="http://carol.wins.uva.nl/~leeuw/samba/fix.html">
- http://carol.wins.uva.nl/~leeuw/samba/fix.html</ulink>.
- The patch will be included in a later version of Samba. It also
- fixes a couple of other problems, such as preserving long
- filenames when objects are dragged from the Workplace Shell
- to the Samba server. </para>
- </sect2>
-
- <sect2>
- <title>How do I get printer driver download working
- for OS/2 clients?</title>
-
- <para>First, create a share called [PRINTDRV] that is
- world-readable. Copy your OS/2 driver files there. Note
- that the .EA_ files must still be separate, so you will need
- to use the original install files, and not copy an installed
- driver from an OS/2 system.</para>
-
- <para>Install the NT driver first for that printer. Then,
- add to your smb.conf a parameter, "os2 driver map =
- <replaceable>filename</replaceable>". Then, in the file
- specified by <replaceable>filename</replaceable>, map the
- name of the NT driver name to the OS/2 driver name as
- follows:</para>
-
- <para>&lt;nt driver name&gt; = &lt;os2 driver
- name&gt;.&lt;device name&gt;, e.g.:
- HP LaserJet 5L = LASERJET.HP LaserJet 5L</para>
-
- <para>You can have multiple drivers mapped in this file.</para>
-
- <para>If you only specify the OS/2 driver name, and not the
- device name, the first attempt to download the driver will
- actually download the files, but the OS/2 client will tell
- you the driver is not available. On the second attempt, it
- will work. This is fixed simply by adding the device name
- to the mapping, after which it will work on the first attempt.

+ <title>How do I get printer driver download working
+ for OS/2 clients?</title>
+
+ <para>First, create a share called [PRINTDRV] that is
+ world-readable. Copy your OS/2 driver files there. Note
+ that the .EA_ files must still be separate, so you will need
+ to use the original install files, and not copy an installed
+ driver from an OS/2 system.</para>
+
+ <para>Install the NT driver first for that printer. Then,
+ add to your smb.conf a parameter, os2 driver map =
+ <replaceable>filename</replaceable>". Then, in the file
+ specified by <replaceable>filename</replaceable>, map the
+ name of the NT driver name to the OS/2 driver name as
+ follows:</para>
+
+ <para><command>nt driver name = os2 "driver
+ name"."device name"</command>, e.g.:
+ HP LaserJet 5L = LASERJET.HP LaserJet 5L</para>
+
+ <para>You can have multiple drivers mapped in this file.</para>
+
+ <para>If you only specify the OS/2 driver name, and not the
+ device name, the first attempt to download the driver will
+ actually download the files, but the OS/2 client will tell
+ you the driver is not available. On the second attempt, it
+ will work. This is fixed simply by adding the device name
+ to the mapping, after which it will work on the first attempt.

+<title>Windows 2000 Service Pack 2</title>
+
+<para>
+There are several annoyances with Windows 2000 SP2. One of which
+only appears when using a Samba server to host user profiles
+to Windows 2000 SP2 clients in a Windows domain. This assumes
+that Samba is a member of the domain, but the problem will
+likely occur if it is not.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+In order to server profiles successfully to Windows 2000 SP2
+clients (when not operating as a PDC), Samba must have
+<command>nt acl support = no</command>
+added to the file share which houses the roaming profiles.
+If this is not done, then the Windows 2000 SP2 client will
+complain about not being able to access the profile (Access
+Denied) and create multiple copies of it on disk (DOMAIN.user.001,
+DOMAIN.user.002, etc...). See the
+<ulink url="smb.conf.5.html">smb.conf(5)</ulink> man page
+for more details on this option. Also note that the
+<command>nt acl support</command> parameter was formally a global parameter in
+releases prior to Samba 2.2.2.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The following is a minimal profile share:
+</para>
+
+<para><programlisting>
+ [profile]
+ path = /export/profile
+ create mask = 0600
+ directory mask = 0700
+ nt acl support = no
+ read only = no
+</programlisting></para>
+
+<para>
+The reason for this bug is that the Win2k SP2 client copies
+the security descriptor for the profile which contains
+the Samba server's SID, and not the domain SID. The client
+compares the SID for SAMBA\user and realizes it is
+different that the one assigned to DOMAIN\user. Hence the reason
+for the "access denied" message.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+By disabling the <command>nt acl support</command> parameter, Samba will send
+the Win2k client a response to the QuerySecurityDescriptor
+trans2 call which causes the client to set a default ACL
+for the profile. This default ACL includes
+</para>

+<para><command>DOMAIN\user "Full Control"</command></para>

+create accounts on the Samba host for Domain users.</emphasis></para>

+<title>HPUX</title>
+
+<para>
+HP's implementation of supplementary groups is, er, non-standard (for
+hysterical reasons). There are two group files, /etc/group and
+/etc/logingroup; the system maps UIDs to numbers using the former, but
+initgroups() reads the latter. Most system admins who know the ropes
+symlink /etc/group to /etc/logingroup (hard link doesn't work for reasons
+too stupid to go into here). initgroups() will complain if one of the
+groups you're in in /etc/logingroup has what it considers to be an invalid
+ID, which means outside the range [0..UID_MAX], where UID_MAX is (I think)
+60000 currently on HP-UX. This precludes -2 and 65534, the usual 'nobody'
+GIDs.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+If you encounter this problem, make sure that the programs that are failing
+to initgroups() be run as users not in any groups with GIDs outside the
+allowed range.

+<title>DNIX</title>
+
+<para>
+DNIX has a problem with seteuid() and setegid(). These routines are
+needed for Samba to work correctly, but they were left out of the DNIX
+C library for some reason.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+For this reason Samba by default defines the macro NO_EID in the DNIX
+section of includes.h. This works around the problem in a limited way,
+but it is far from ideal, some things still won't work right.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+To fix the problem properly you need to assemble the following two
+functions and then either add them to your C library or link them into
+Samba.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+put this in the file <filename>setegid.s</filename>:
+</para>

+<para><command>as setegid.s</command></para>
+
+<para>
+that should produce the files <filename>seteuid.o</filename> and
+<filename>setegid.o</filename>
+</para>
+
+<para>
+then you need to add these to the LIBSM line in the DNIX section of
+the Samba Makefile. Your LIBSM line will then look something like this:
+</para>
+
+<para><programlisting>
+LIBSM = setegid.o seteuid.o -ln
+</programlisting></para>
+
+<para>
+You should then remove the line:
