2007-10-10r21005: Add a debug message for EAGAIN error of setresuid.Volker Lendecke1-1/+7

2007-10-10r17294: Make the code a little cleaner. Instead of using the twoJeremy Allison1-3/+29
calls make it : become_root_uid_only() operation unbecome_root_uid_only() saving errno across the second call. Most of our internal change calls can be replaced with these simple calls. Jeremy (This used to be commit 4143aa83c029848d8ec741d9218b3fa6e3fd28dd)
2007-10-10r17293: After the results from the cluster tests in Germany,Jeremy Allison1-2/+8
fix the messaging code to call the efficient calls : save_re_uid() set_effective_uid(0); messaging_op restore_re_uid(); instead of using heavyweight become_root()/unbecome_root() pairs around all messaging code. Fixup the messaging code to ensure sec_init() is called (only once) so that non-root processes still work when sending messages. This is a lighter weight solution to become_root()/unbecome_root() (which swaps all the supplemental groups) and should be more efficient. I will migrate all server code over to using this (a similar technique should be used in the passdb backend where needed). Jeremy. (This used to be commit 4ace291278d9a44f5c577bdd3b282c1231e543df)

2003-10-23After a phonecall with jra finally commit this.Volker Lendecke1-5/+2
This changes our behaviour when the setresuid call is available. We now not only change the effective uid but also the real uid when becoming unprivileged. This is mainly for improved AFS compatibility, as AFS selects the token to send to the server based on the real uid of the process. I tested this with a W2k server with two non-root 'runas' sessions. They come in via a single smbd as two different users using two session setups. Samba on Linux can still switch between the two uids, proved by two different files created via those sessions.

why does anything but smbd care about sec_init() anyway?? (This used to be commit 569505b77140c2688aeab4df058b864464f23c1d)

2002-01-30Removed version number from file header.Tim Potter1-2/+1
Changed "SMB/Netbios" to "SMB/CIFS" in file header. (This used to be commit 6a58c9bd06d0d7502a24bf5ce5a2faf0a146edfa)
2001-10-31Parionia to ensure people don't install libsmb based programs setuid root.Andrew Bartlett1-0/+8
libsmb has not been written to be setuid, with things like LIBSMB_PROG allowing all sort of fun and games. Andrew Bartlett (This used to be commit 0c8e9339d8238de92e9146d04091694b62874c33)

allow us to have test targets without special configure options - fixed make proto so that it actually does something (This used to be commit 55109a752578e9389d853cb27ec17c2114ecff77)
2001-06-22added the ability to test smbd safely as an ordinary user. The way it works isAndrew Tridgell1-0/+4
that libsmb/ creates a local tcp socket then launches smbd as a subprocess attached to that socket. smbd thinks it is being launched from inetd. to use it do the following: - compile with -DSMB_REGRESSION_TEST - run like this (also works with smbtorture etc) export SMBD_TEST=1 export LIBSMB_PROG=bin/smbd smbclient //server/share -Uuser%pass obviously you need to setup a smb.conf etc. Using --prefix to configure is useful. The aim of all this stuff is to add a decent set of regression tests to the build farm, so we know if smbd actually runs correctly on all the platforms, not just builds. We can run smbtorture, masktest, locktest etc, plus a bunch of smbclient scripts and any new tests we write. This doesn't help much with nmbd (at least not yet) but its a good start.
