+<title>Stackable VFS modules</title>
+
+<sect1>
+<title>Introduction and configuration</title>
+
+<para>
+Since samba 3.0, samba supports stackable VFS(Virtual File System) modules.
+Samba passes each request to access the unix file system thru the loaded VFS modules.
+This chapter covers all the modules that come with the samba source and references to
+some external modules.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+You may have problems to compile these modules, as shared libraries are
+compiled and linked in different ways on different systems.
+They currently have been tested against GNU/linux and IRIX.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+To use the VFS modules, create a share similar to the one below. The
+important parameter is the <command>vfs object</command> parameter which must point to
+the exact pathname of the shared library objects. For example, to log all access
+to files and use a recycle bin:
+
+<programlisting>
+ [audit]
+ comment = Audited /data directory
+ path = /data
+ vfs object = /path/to/audit.so /path/to/recycle.so
+ writeable = yes
+ browseable = yes
+</programlisting>
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The modules are used in the order they are specified.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Further documentation on writing VFS modules for Samba can be found in
+the Samba Developers Guide.

+I have created a VFS module which implements a fairly complete read-only
+filesystem. It presents information from a database as a filesystem in
+a modular and generic way to allow different databases to be used
+(originally designed for organizing MP3s under directories such as
+"Artists," "Song Keywords," etc... I have since applied it to a student
+roster database very easily). The directory structure is stored in the
+database itself and the module makes no assumptions about the database
+structure beyond the table it requires to run.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Any feedback would be appreciated: comments, suggestions, patches,
+etc... If nothing else, hopefully it might prove useful for someone
+else who wishes to create a virtual filesystem.

+samba-vscan is a proof-of-concept module for Samba, which
+uses the VFS (virtual file system) features of Samba 2.2.x/3.0
+alphaX. Of couse, Samba has to be compiled with VFS support.

+<title>Passdb MySQL plugin</title>
+
+<sect1>
+<title>Building</title>
+
+<para>To build the plugin, run <command>make bin/pdb_mysql.so</command>
+in the <filename>source/</filename> directory of samba distribution.
+</para>
+
+<para>Next, copy pdb_mysql.so to any location you want. I
+strongly recommend installing it in $PREFIX/lib or /usr/lib/samba/</para>
+
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>
+<title>Configuring</title>
+
+<para>This plugin lacks some good documentation, but here is some short info:</para>
+
+<para>Add a the following to the <command>passdb backend</command> variable in your <filename>smb.conf</filename>:
+<programlisting>
+passdb backend = [other-plugins] plugin:/location/to/pdb_mysql.so:identifier [other-plugins]
+</programlisting>
+</para>
+
+<para>The identifier can be any string you like, as long as it doesn't collide with
+the identifiers of other plugins or other instances of pdb_mysql. If you
+specify multiple pdb_mysql.so entries in 'passdb backend', you also need to
+use different identifiers!
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Additional options can be given thru the smb.conf file in the [global] section.
+</para>
+
+<para><programlisting>
+identifier:mysql host - host name, defaults to 'localhost'
+identifier:mysql password
+identifier:mysql user - defaults to 'samba'
+identifier:mysql database - defaults to 'samba'
+identifier:mysql port - defaults to 3306
+identifier:table - Name of the table containing users
+</programlisting></para>
+
+<para>Names of the columns in this table(I've added column types those columns should have first):</para>
+
+<para><programlisting>
+identifier:logon time column - int(9)
+identifier:logoff time column - int(9)
+identifier:kickoff time column - int(9)
+identifier:pass last set time column - int(9)
+identifier:pass can change time column - int(9)
+identifier:pass must change time column - int(9)
+identifier:username column - varchar(255) - unix username
+identifier:domain column - varchar(255) - NT domain user is part of
+identifier:nt username column - varchar(255) - NT username
+identifier:fullname column - varchar(255) - Full name of user
+identifier:home dir column - varchar(255) - Unix homedir path
+identifier:dir drive column - varchar(2) - Directory drive path (eg: 'H:')
+identifier:logon script column - varchar(255) - Batch file to run on client side when logging on
+identifier:profile path column - varchar(255) - Path of profile
+identifier:acct desc column - varchar(255) - Some ASCII NT user data
+identifier:workstations column - varchar(255) - Workstations user can logon to (or NULL for all)
+identifier:unknown string column - varchar(255) - unknown string
+identifier:munged dial column - varchar(255) - ?
+identifier:uid column - int(9) - Unix user ID (uid)
+identifier:gid column - int(9) - Unix user group (gid)
+identifier:user sid column - varchar(255) - NT user SID
+identifier:group sid column - varchar(255) - NT group ID
+identifier:lanman pass column - varchar(255) - encrypted lanman password
+identifier:nt pass column - varchar(255) - encrypted nt passwd
+identifier:plain pass column - varchar(255) - plaintext password
+identifier:acct control column - int(9) - nt user data
+identifier:unknown 3 column - int(9) - unknown
+identifier:logon divs column - int(9) - ?
+identifier:hours len column - int(9) - ?
+identifier:unknown 5 column - int(9) - unknown
+identifier:unknown 6 column - int(9) - unknown
+</programlisting></para>
+
+<para>
+Eventually, you can put a colon (:) after the name of each column, which
+should specify the column to update when updating the table. You can also
+specify nothing behind the colon - then the data from the field will not be
+updated.
+</para>
+
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>
+<title>Using plaintext passwords or encrypted password</title>
+
+<para>
+I strongly discourage the use of plaintext passwords, however, you can use them:
+</para>
+
+<para>
+If you would like to use plaintext passwords, set 'identifier:lanman pass column' and 'identifier:nt pass column' to 'NULL' (without the quotes) and 'identifier:plain pass column' to the name of the column containing the plaintext passwords.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+If you use encrypted passwords, set the 'identifier:plain pass column' to 'NULL' (without the quotes). This is the default.
+</para>
+
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>
+<title>Getting non-column data from the table</title>
+
+<para>
+It is possible to have not all data in the database and making some 'constant'.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+For example, you can set 'identifier:fullname column' to :
+<command>CONCAT(First_name,' ',Sur_name)</command>
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Or, set 'identifier:workstations column' to :
+<command>NULL</command></para>
+
+<para>See the MySQL documentation for more language constructs.</para>

+network file access to local access (once the file is in
+client cache). An "oplock break" is when the server sends
+a request to the client to flush all its changes back to
+the server, so the file is in a consistent state for other
+opens to succeed. If a client fails to respond to this
+asynchronous request then the file can be corrupted. Hence
+the "turn off oplocks" answer if people are having multi-user
+file access problems.</P
+><P
+>Unless the kernel is "oplock aware" (SGI IRIX and Linux are
+the only two UNIXes that are at the moment) then if a local
+UNIX process accesses the file simultaneously then Samba
+has no way of telling this is occuring, so the guarentee
+to the client is broken. This can corrupt the file. Short
+answer - it you have UNIX clients accessing the same file
+as smbd locally or via NFS and you're not running Linux or
+IRIX then turn off oplocks for that file or share.</P
+><P
+>"Share modes". These are modes of opening a file, that
+guarentee an invarient - such as DENY_WRITE - which means
+that if any other opens are requested with write access after
+this current open has succeeded then they should be denied
+with a "sharing violation" error message. Samba handles these
+internally inside smbd. UNIX clients accessing the same file
+ignore these invarients. Just proving that if you need simultaneous
+file access from a Windows and UNIX client you *must* have an
+application that is written to lock records correctly on both
+sides. Few applications are written like this, and even fewer
+are cross platform (UNIX and Windows) so in practice this isn't
+much of a problem.</P
+><P
+>"Locking". This really means "byte range locking" - such as
+lock 10 bytes at file offset 24 for write access. This is the
+area in which well written UNIX and Windows apps will cooperate.
+Windows locks (at least from NT or above) are 64-bit unsigned
+offsets. UNIX locks are either 31 bit or 63 bit and are signed
+(the top bit is used for the sign). Samba handles these by
+first ensuring that all the Windows locks don't conflict (ie.
+if other Windows clients have competing locks then just reject
+immediately) - this allows us to support 64-bit Windows locks
+on 32-bit filesystems. Secondly any locks that are valid are
+then mapped onto UNIX fcntl byte range locks. These are the
+locks that will be seen by UNIX processes. If there is a conflict
+here the lock is rejected.</P
+><P
+>Note that if a client has an oplock then it "knows" that no
+other client can have the file open so usually doesn't bother
+to send to lock request to the server - this means once again
+if you need to share files between UNIX and Windows processes
+either use IRIX or Linux, or turn off oplocks for these
+files/shares.</P

+>Newer windows clients send encrypted passwords over
+ the wire, instead of plain text passwords. The newest clients
+ will only send encrypted passwords and refuse to send plain text
+ passwords, unless their registry is tweaked.</P
+><P
+>These passwords can't be converted to unix style encrypted
+ passwords. Because of that you can't use the standard unix
+ user database, and you have to store the Lanman and NT hashes
+ somewhere else. For more information, see the documentation
+ about the <B
+CLASS="COMMAND"

+>5.2. Important Notes About Security</H1
+><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 network 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

+ <B

+> or <B

+><P
+><B
+CLASS="COMMAND"
+>smbpasswd</B

+><B
+CLASS="COMMAND"

+>Versions of Samba prior to release 2.2 had marginal capabilities to act
+as a Windows NT 4.0 Primary Domain Controller
+
+(PDC). With Samba 2.2.0, we are proud to announce official support for
+Windows NT 4.0-style domain logons from Windows NT 4.0 and Windows
+2000 clients. This article outlines the steps
+necessary for configuring Samba as a PDC. It is necessary to have a
+working Samba server prior to implementing the PDC functionality. If
+you have not followed the steps outlined in <A
+HREF="UNIX_INSTALL.html"
+TARGET="_top"
+> UNIX_INSTALL.html</A
+>, please make sure
+that your server is configured correctly before proceeding. Another
+good resource in the <A
+HREF="smb.conf.5.html"

+>. The following functionality should work in 2.2:</P

+ is sufficient (at least, on the first time you join the domain) to
+ generate a 'LsaEnumTrustedDomains'. Thereafter, the workstation
+ maintains an open connection, and therefore there will be an smbd
+ process running (assuming that you haven't set a really short smbd
+ idle timeout) So, in between pressing ctrl alt delete, and actually

+>A domain and a workgroup are exactly the same thing in terms of network

+successfully authenticate against a domain logon server (NT server and
+other systems based on NT server support this, as does at least Samba TNG now).</P

+identical and is explained in BROWSING.txt. It should be noted, that browsing
+is totally orthogonal to logon support.</P

+profiles for MS Windows for workgroups and MS Windows 9X/ME clients
+which will be the focus of this section.</P
+><P
+>When an SMB client in a domain wishes to logon it broadcast requests for a
+logon server. The first one to reply gets the job, and validates its
+password using whatever mechanism the Samba administrator has installed.
+It is possible (but very stupid) to create a domain where the user
+database is not shared between servers, i.e. they are effectively workgroup
+servers advertising themselves as participating in a domain. This
+demonstrates how authentication is quite different from but closely
+involved with domains.</P
+><P
+>Using these features you can make your clients verify their logon via
+the Samba server; make clients run a batch file when they logon to
+the network and download their preferences, desktop and start menu.</P

+ contains the NetBIOS name of the logon server to use in the format of

+>There are a few comments to make in order to tie up some
+loose ends. There has been much debate over the issue of whether
+or not it is ok to configure Samba as a Domain Controller in security
+modes other than <TT
+CLASS="CONSTANT"
+>USER</TT
+>. The only security mode
+which will not work due to technical reasons is <TT
+CLASS="CONSTANT"
+>SHARE</TT
+>
+mode security. <TT
+CLASS="CONSTANT"
+>DOMAIN</TT
+> and <TT
+CLASS="CONSTANT"
+>SERVER</TT
+>
+mode security is really just a variation on SMB user level security.</P
+><P
+>Actually, this issue is also closely tied to the debate on whether
+or not Samba must be the domain master browser for its workgroup
+when operating as a DC. While it may technically be possible
+to configure a server as such (after all, browsing and domain logons
+are two distinctly different functions), it is not a good idea to
+so. You should remember that the DC must register the DOMAIN#1b NetBIOS
+name. This is the name used by Windows clients to locate the DC.
+Windows clients do not distinguish between the DC and the DMB.
+For this reason, it is very wise to configure the Samba DC as the DMB.</P
+><P
+>Now back to the issue of configuring a Samba DC to use a mode other
+than "security = user". If a Samba host is configured to use
+another SMB server or DC in order to validate user connection
+requests, then it is a fact that some other machine on the network
+(the "password server") knows more about user than the Samba host.
+99% of the time, this other host is a domain controller. Now
+in order to operate in domain mode security, the "workgroup" parameter
+must be set to the name of the Windows NT domain (which already
+has a domain controller, right?)</P
+><P
+>Therefore configuring a Samba box as a DC for a domain that
+already by definition has a PDC is asking for trouble.
+Therefore, you should always configure the Samba DC to be the DMB
+for its domain.</P

+The term "Domain Controller" and those related to it refer to one specific
+method of authentication that can underly an SMB domain. Domain Controllers
+prior to Windows NT Server 3.1 were sold by various companies and based on
+private extensions to the LAN Manager 2.1 protocol. Windows NT introduced
+Microsoft-specific ways of distributing the user authentication database.
+See DOMAIN.txt for examples of how Samba can participate in or create
+SMB domains based on shared authentication database schemes other than the
+Windows NT SAM.</P
+><P
+>Windows NT Server can be installed as either a plain file and print server
+(WORKGROUP workstation or server) or as a server that participates in Domain
+Control (DOMAIN member, Primary Domain controller or Backup Domain controller).
+The same is true for OS/2 Warp Server, Digital Pathworks and other similar
+products, all of which can participate in Domain Control along with Windows NT.</P
+><P
+>To many people these terms can be confusing, so let's try to clear the air.</P
+><P
+>Every Windows NT system (workstation or server) has a registry database.
+The registry contains entries that describe the initialization information
+for all services (the equivalent of Unix Daemons) that run within the Windows
+NT environment. The registry also contains entries that tell application
+software where to find dynamically loadable libraries that they depend upon.
+In fact, the registry contains entries that describes everything that anything
+may need to know to interact with the rest of the system.</P
+><P
+>The registry files can be located on any Windows NT machine by opening a
+command prompt and typing:</P
+><P
+><TT
+CLASS="PROMPT"
+>C:\WINNT\&#62;</TT
+> dir %SystemRoot%\System32\config</P
+><P
+>The environment variable %SystemRoot% value can be obtained by typing:</P
+><P
+><TT
+CLASS="PROMPT"
+>C:\WINNT&#62;</TT
+>echo %SystemRoot%</P
+><P
+>The active parts of the registry that you may want to be familiar with are
+the files called: default, system, software, sam and security.</P
+><P
+>In a domain environment, Microsoft Windows NT domain controllers participate
+in replication of the SAM and SECURITY files so that all controllers within
+the domain have an exactly identical copy of each.</P
+><P
+>The Microsoft Windows NT system is structured within a security model that
+says that all applications and services must authenticate themselves before
+they can obtain permission from the security manager to do what they set out
+to do.</P
+><P
+>The Windows NT User database also resides within the registry. This part of
+the registry contains the user's security identifier, home directory, group
+memberships, desktop profile, and so on.</P
+><P
+>Every Windows NT system (workstation as well as server) will have its own
+registry. Windows NT Servers that participate in Domain Security control
+have a database that they share in common - thus they do NOT own an
+independent full registry database of their own, as do Workstations and
+plain Servers.</P
+><P
+>The User database is called the SAM (Security Access Manager) database and
+is used for all user authentication as well as for authentication of inter-
+process authentication (i.e. to ensure that the service action a user has
+requested is permitted within the limits of that user's privileges).</P
+><P
+>The Samba team have produced a utility that can dump the Windows NT SAM into
+smbpasswd format: see ENCRYPTION.txt for information on smbpasswd and
+/pub/samba/pwdump on your nearest Samba mirror for the utility. This
+facility is useful but cannot be easily used to implement SAM replication
+to Samba systems.</P
+><P
+>Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95, and Windows NT Workstations and Servers
+can participate in a Domain security system that is controlled by Windows NT
+servers that have been correctly configured. Almost every domain will have
+ONE Primary Domain Controller (PDC). It is desirable that each domain will
+have at least one Backup Domain Controller (BDC).</P
+><P
+>The PDC and BDCs then participate in replication of the SAM database so that
+each Domain Controlling participant will have an up to date SAM component
+within its registry.</P

+>19.1. Introduction and configuration</H1
+><P
+>Since samba 3.0, samba supports stackable VFS(Virtual File System) modules.
+Samba passes each request to access the unix file system thru the loaded VFS modules.
+This chapter covers all the modules that come with the samba source and references to
+some external modules.</P
+><P
+>You may have problems to compile these modules, as shared libraries are
+compiled and linked in different ways on different systems.
+I currently tested them against GNU/linux and IRIX.</P
+><P
+>To use the VFS modules, create a share similar to the one below. The
+important parameter is the <B
+CLASS="COMMAND"
+>vfs object</B
+> parameter which must point to
+the exact pathname of the shared library object. For example, to use audit.so:
+
+<PRE
+CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
+> [audit]
+ comment = Audited /data directory
+ path = /data
+ vfs object = /path/to/audit.so
+ writeable = yes
+ browseable = yes</PRE
+></P
+><P
+>Further documentation on writing VFS modules for Samba can be found in
+docs directory of the Samba source distribution.</P

+>I have created a VFS module which implements a fairly complete read-only
+filesystem. It presents information from a database as a filesystem in
+a modular and generic way to allow different databases to be used
+(originally designed for organizing MP3s under directories such as
+"Artists," "Song Keywords," etc... I have since applied it to a student
+roster database very easily). The directory structure is stored in the
+database itself and the module makes no assumptions about the database
+structure beyond the table it requires to run.</P
+><P
+>Any feedback would be appreciated: comments, suggestions, patches,
+etc... If nothing else, hopefully it might prove useful for someone
+else who wishes to create a virtual filesystem.</P
