2002-05-17This removes --with-ssl from Samba.Andrew Bartlett1-361/+2
This option was badly maintained, useless and confused our users and distirbutors. (its SSL, therfore it must be good...) No windows client uses this protocol without help from an SSL tunnel. I can't see any reason why setting up a unix-side SSL wrapper would be any more difficult than the > 10 config options this mess added to samba in any case. On the Samba client end, I think the LIBSMB_PROG hack should be sufficient to start stunnel on the unix side. We might extend this to take %i and %p (IP and port) if there is demand.

2002-04-13Better handling of uid/gid -> RID and RID -> uid/gid code.Andrew Bartlett1-0/+21
All uids and gids must create valid RIDs, becouse other code expects this, and can't handle the failure case. (ACL code in particular) Allow admins to adjust the base of the RID algorithm, so avoid clashes with users brought in from NT (for example). Put all the algorithm code back in one place, so that this change is global. Better coping with NULL sid pointers - but it still breaks a lot of stuff. BONUS: manpage entry for new paramater :-) counter based rids for normal users in tdbsam is disabled for the timebeing, idra and I will work out some things here soon I hope.

2002-01-20This is another *BIG* change...Andrew Bartlett2-72/+83
Samba now features a pluggable passdb interface, along the same lines as the one in use in the auth subsystem. In this case, only one backend may be active at a time by the 'normal' interface, and only one backend per passdb_context is permitted outside that. This pluggable interface is designed to allow any number of passdb backends to be compiled in, with the selection at runtime. The 'passdb backend' paramater has been created (and documented!) to support this. As such, configure has been modfied to allow (for example) --with-ldap and the old smbpasswd to be selected at the same time. This patch also introduces two new backends: smbpasswd_nua and tdbsam_nua. These two backends accept 'non unix accounts', where the user does *not* exist in /etc/passwd. These accounts' don't have UIDs in the unix sense, but to avoid conflicts in the algroitmic mapping of RIDs, they use the values specified in the 'non unix account range' paramter - in the same way as the winbind ranges are specifed. While I was at it, I cleaned up some of the code in pdb_tdb (code copied directly from smbpasswd and not really considered properly). Most of this was to do with % macro expansion on stored data. It isn't easy to get the macros into the tdb, and the first password change will 'expand' them. tdbsam needs to use a similar system to pdb_ldap in this regard. This patch only makes minor adjustments to pdb_nisplus and pdb_ldap, becouse I don't have the test facilities for these. I plan to incoroprate at least pdb_ldap into this scheme after consultation with Jerry. Each (converted) passdb module now no longer has any 'static' variables, and only exports 1 init function outside its .c file. The non-unix-account support in this patch has been proven! It is now possible to join a win2k machine to a Samba PDC without an account in /etc/passwd! Other changes: Minor interface adjustments: pdb_delete_sam_account() now takes a SAM_ACCOUNT, not a char*. pdb_update_sam_account() no longer takes the 'override' argument that was being ignored so often (every other passdb backend). Extra checks have been added in some places. Minor code changes: smbpasswd no longer attempts to initialise the passdb at startup, this is now done on first use. pdbedit has lost some of its 'machine account' logic, as this behaviour is now controlled by the passdb subsystem directly. The samr subsystem no longer calls 'local password change', but does the pdb interactions directly. This allow the ACB_ flags specifed to be transferred direct to the backend, without interference. Doco: I've updated the doco to reflect some of the changes, and removed some paramters no longer applicable to HEAD. (This used to be commit ff354c99c585068af6dc1ff35a1f109a806b326b)
2002-01-18This is the 'winbind default domain' patch from Alexander BokovoyAndrew Bartlett2-1/+32
<a.bokovoy@sam-solutions.net>. The idea is the domain\username is rather harsh for unix systems - people don't expect to have to FTP, SSH and (in particular) e-mail with a username like that. This 'corrects' that - but is not without its own problems. As you can see from the changes to files like username.c and wb_client.c (smbd's winbind client code) a lot of assumptions are made in a lot of places about lp_winbind_seperator determining a users's status as a domain or local user. The main change I will shortly be making is to investigate and kill off winbind_initgroups() - as far as I know it was a workaround for an old bug in winbind itself (and a bug in RH 5.2) and should no longer be relevent. I am also going to move to using the 'winbind uid' and 'winbind gid' paramaters to determine a user/groups's 'local' status, rather than the presence of the seperator. As such, this functionality is recommended for servers providing unix services, but is currently less than optimal for windows clients. (TODO: remove all references to lp_winbind_seperator() and lp_winbind_use_default_domain() from smbd) Andrew Bartlett (This used to be commit 07a21fcd2311d2d9b430b99303e3532a8c1159e4)
