><P
->LanManager encryption is somewhat similar to UNIX
- password encryption. The server uses a file containing a
- hashed value of a user's password. This is created by taking
- the user's plaintext password, capitalising it, and either
- truncating to 14 bytes or padding to 14 bytes with null bytes.
- This 14 byte value is used as two 56 bit DES keys to encrypt
- a 'magic' eight byte value, forming a 16 byte value which is
- stored by the server and client. Let this value be known as
- the "hashed password".</P
-><P
->Windows NT encryption is a higher quality mechanism,
- consisting of doing an MD4 hash on a Unicode version of the user's
- password. This also produces a 16 byte hash value that is
- non-reversible.</P
-><P
->When a client (LanManager, Windows for WorkGroups, Windows
- 95 or Windows NT) wishes to mount a Samba drive (or use a Samba
- resource), it first requests a connection and negotiates the
- protocol that the client and server will use. In the reply to this
- request the Samba server generates and appends an 8 byte, random
- value - this is stored in the Samba server after the reply is sent
- and is known as the "challenge". The challenge is different for
- every client connection.</P
-><P
->The client then uses the hashed password (16 byte values
- described above), appended with 5 null bytes, as three 56 bit
- DES keys, each of which is used to encrypt the challenge 8 byte
- value, forming a 24 byte value known as the "response".</P
-><P
->In the SMB call SMBsessionsetupX (when user level security
- is selected) or the call SMBtconX (when share level security is
- selected), the 24 byte response is returned by the client to the
- Samba server. For Windows NT protocol levels the above calculation
- is done on both hashes of the user's password and both responses are
- returned in the SMB call, giving two 24 byte values.</P
-><P
->The Samba server then reproduces the above calculation, using
- its own stored value of the 16 byte hashed password (read from the

+>A number of Unix systems (eg: Sun Solaris), as well as the

+the system password database (<TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
->smbpasswd</TT
-> file - described later) and the challenge
- value that it kept from the negotiate protocol reply. It then checks
- to see if the 24 byte value it calculates matches the 24 byte value
- returned to it from the client.</P
-><P
->If these values match exactly, then the client knew the

+>login</B
+>,
+<B
+CLASS="COMMAND"
+>passwd</B
+>, <B
+CLASS="COMMAND"
+>chown</B
+>, etc.</P
><P
->Note that the Samba server never knows or stores the cleartext
- of the user's password - just the 16 byte hashed values derived from
- it. Also note that the cleartext password or 16 byte hashed values
- are never transmitted over the network - thus increasing security.</P

+>PAM provides a mechanism that disconnects these security programs
+from the underlying authentication/authorization infrastructure.
+PAM is configured either through one file <TT
+CLASS="FILENAME"
+>/etc/pam.conf</TT
+> (Solaris),
+or by editing individual files that are located in <TT
+CLASS="FILENAME"
+>/etc/pam.d</TT
+>.</P
><P
->The unix and SMB password encryption techniques seem similar
- on the surface. This similarity is, however, only skin deep. The unix
- scheme typically sends clear text passwords over the nextwork when
- logging in. This is bad. The SMB encryption scheme never sends the
- cleartext password over the network but it does store the 16 byte
- hashed values on disk. This is also bad. Why? Because the 16 byte hashed
- values are a "password equivalent". You cannot derive the user's
- password from them, but they could potentially be used in a modified
- client to gain access to a server. This would require considerable
- technical knowledge on behalf of the attacker but is perfectly possible.
- You should thus treat the smbpasswd file as though it contained the
- cleartext passwords of all your users. Its contents must be kept
- secret, and the file should be protected accordingly.</P
-><P
->Ideally we would like a password scheme which neither requires
- plain text passwords on the net or on disk. Unfortunately this
- is not available as Samba is stuck with being compatible with
- other SMB systems (WinNT, WfWg, Win95 etc). </P

->Samba maps some of the DOS attribute bits (such as "read
- only") into the UNIX permissions of a file. This means there can
- be a conflict between the permission bits set via the security
- dialog and the permission bits set by the file attribute mapping.
- </P
-><P
->One way this can show up is if a file has no UNIX read access
- for the owner it will show up as "read only" in the standard
- file attributes tabbed dialog. Unfortunately this dialog is
- the same one that contains the security info in another tab.</P
-><P
->What this can mean is that if the owner changes the permissions
- to allow themselves read access using the security dialog, clicks
- <B
-CLASS="COMMAND"
->"OK"</B
-> to get back to the standard attributes tab
- dialog, and then clicks <B
-CLASS="COMMAND"
->"OK"</B
-> on that dialog, then
- NT will set the file permissions back to read-only (as that is what
- the attributes still say in the dialog). This means that after setting
- permissions and clicking <B
-CLASS="COMMAND"
->"OK"</B
-> to get back to the
- attributes dialog you should always hit <B
-CLASS="COMMAND"
->"Cancel"</B
->
- rather than <B
-CLASS="COMMAND"
->"OK"</B
-> to ensure that your changes
- are not overridden.</P
+>The winbind system, through the use of the Name Service
+ Switch, Pluggable Authentication Modules, and appropriate
+ Microsoft RPC calls have allowed us to provide seamless
+ integration of Microsoft Windows NT domain users on a
+ UNIX system. The result is a great reduction in the administrative
+ cost of running a mixed UNIX and NT network.</P
