2000-10-27Rolled back find NetBIOS name of PDC/BDC code as a temp fix. ThisJeremy Allison1-1/+60
code works :-). Jeremy. (This used to be commit 4f66eda11e0dc15ff04893da7b7d6e578a30c4dc)
2000-10-13Fix to allow smbd to call winbindd if it is running for all group enumeration,Jeremy Allison1-1/+1
falling back to the UNIX calls on error. This should fix all problems with smbd enumerating all users in all groups in all trusted domains via winbindd. Also changed GETDC to query 1C name rather than 1b name as only the PDC registers 1b. Jeremy. (This used to be commit 5b0038a2afd8abbd6fd4a58f5477a40d1926d498)

2000-08-11First shot at actually *doing* WINS failover.Christopher R. Hertel1-1/+8
If libsmb/namequery.c:name_query() times out while doing a non-broadcast query, I mark that WINS server 'dead'. Note that I don't try the new WINS server. I think I can get that working too. This is only for queries, not registrations. The biggest problem is that I may have to fiddle with the UNICAST SUBNET, but I need to check talk that over with someone (Jeremy?) before I hack at it. I can't actually test the above change, I'm 'fraid. I'm getting: 4 errors detected in the compilation of "rpc_server/srv_spoolss_nt.c". in head branch. Chris -)----- (This used to be commit 40ae638866e3d826ccd5d827672634959c31b039)
2000-07-19Instead of handing back a string (which might be a DNS name or an IPChristopher R. Hertel1-1/+1
string), the wins_srv module now hands back a struct in_addr when it's called. It caches the IP address once it has been looked up. The IP is cleared (and must be looked up again) if the 'wins server' parameter is reread, or if the node is marked 'dead'. A dead node will not be re-tried for 10 minutes (per a #define in wins_srv.c). As it was, the code was reading the WINS server name or IP directly from lp_wins_server. That's okay, except that if the value was expressed as a name, then a DNS lookup would be done every time the client wanted to talk to the server. I still need to work out the implications of failover regarding the 'unicast subnet' list. Chris -)----- (This used to be commit 73aa188320fd3bf10b5dfc057323f40aff2c13bd)
2000-07-19First cut toward adding WINS server failover.Christopher R. Hertel1-3/+3
*Note: failover doesn't actually work yet!* It's just that the code I'm adding provides all of the pieces necessary. I do have one big question. Something that I'll have to ask Jeremy, I'm thinkin'. In nmbd/nmbd_subnetdb.c the IP of the WINS server is used to set up the Unicast subnet. ...so what happens if the WINS server changes? My guess is either: a) nothing. b) I'd have to change the unicast subnet entry whenever the WINS server changes. Urq. BTW, the lp_wins_server() function no longer returns the WINS server name or IP. It returns the list of WINS servers entered in smb.conf. To get the currently 'live' WINS server, use the wins_srv() function. Fun, eh? Chris -)----- (This used to be commit cc08bdc74f4cd111fdc582ee7babef47ed8a950d)
2000-07-12An improved version of the Negative Query Response fix. The earlier fixChristopher R. Hertel1-10/+37
only did a short-cut on an rcode of 3, which is 'name not found'. This does a short-cut on any non-zero rcode. It also puts out a DEBUG message (if DEBUGLEVEL is >= 3) detailing the error. Chris -)----- (This used to be commit d8656304d51844335e72babe852673f2dececfdc)
2000-07-09Quick change to short-circuit WINS queries if the WINS server returns aChristopher R. Hertel1-6/+20
Negative Name Query Response. We should't wait through the timeouts and retry twice if we've been told "No Such Entry". (This used to be commit 2bbd16903db02aacb729d1ad140056b180e2a776)
2000-07-03first pass at merging rpcclient from TNG to HEAD. You can get aGerald Carter1-0/+63
semi-connection and a rpcclient prompt, but no functionality there yet. Will be a few more days on that. These files changed only with the addition of some support functions from TNG --jerry (This used to be commit a04ea15f723e559db3c60bed03318cc7be851f69)
2000-06-01Getting back to a compilable state (not there yet but close).Jeremy Allison1-2/+2
Added patches for random -> sys_random. Added set_effective_xxx patches for AFS code. Memory allocation changes in spoolss code. Jeremy. (This used to be commit c2099cfb033c2cdb6035f4f7f50ce21b98e1584d)
2000-05-02Added sys_fork() and sys_getpid() functions to stop the overheadJeremy Allison1-1/+1
of doing a system call every time we want to just get our pid. Jeremy. (This used to be commit 148628b616b5c29ba6340d65fc3ddbcabba6e67a)
2000-04-11include/byteorder.h: ALIGN4/ALIGN2 macros.Jeremy Allison1-1/+1
include/includes.h: Added SMB_BIG_UINT_BITS. lib/util.c: Removed align2/align4 - use macros. libsmb/namequery.c: Use ALIGN2. locking/locking.c: Replace do_lock, do_unlock, args with SMB_BIG_UINT, not SMB_OFF_T. Needed to move to hiding POSIX locks at a lower layer. nmbd/nmbd_processlogon.c: Use ALIGN2/ALIGN4 macros. smbd/blocking.c: Replace do_lock, do_unlock, args with SMB_BIG_UINT, not SMB_OFF_T. smbd/reply.c: Replace do_lock, do_unlock, args with SMB_BIG_UINT, not SMB_OFF_T. Jeremy. (This used to be commit 491eea8a20bf80d426625479326211dc975857a6)
2000-03-27changed the definition of dos_PutUniCodeAndrew Tridgell1-2/+1
the previous definition could result is us overflowing a buffer. The null termination was always added yet the size returned did not include the null termination. the new function takes a BOOL null_terminate, and always returns the total number of bytes consumed by the string. (This used to be commit 426c90433396a95033eefcc4af97603abc934221)
2000-01-07this looks like a big commit, but it isn't really :)Andrew Tridgell1-5/+4
This fixes our netbios scope handling. We now have a 'netbios scope' option in smb.conf and the scope option is removed from make_nmb_name() this was prompted by a bug in our PDC finding code where it didn't append the scope to the query of the '*' name. (This used to be commit b563be824b8c3141c49558eced7829b48d4ab26f)
2000-01-03added suppport for unexpected udp/138 packetsAndrew Tridgell1-236/+166
I also fixed up the lookup_pdc_name() code so that it now works, even with a NT server that insists on replying to udp/138. The method I used to match packets was to use the mailslot string as a datagram ID. The true dgm_id doesn't work as NT doesn't set it correctly. uggh. PS: Jeremy, I had to change your code quite a bit, are you sure this worked with a Samba PDC?? The code looked broken, it got the offsets wrong in the SMB portion of the packet and filled in the IP incorrectly. (This used to be commit 32f66f4ea63038cb4b3785bdf1762abdde076f5d)
2000-01-03added the unexpected packet database (unexpected.tdb)Andrew Tridgell1-144/+113
this means "nmblookup -S" now always works, even with broken servers the database stores all unexpected replies and these can be accessed by any client. while doing this I cleaned up a couple of functions, and put in place a better trn_id generator. in most places the code got quite a bit simpler due to the addition of simple helper functions. I haven't yet put the code in to take advantage of this for pdc replies - that will be next. Jeremys pdc finding code will then work :) (This used to be commit 280e6359d36c9bc8dcded302f15c3a1db8e3feeb)
1999-12-13first pass at updating head branch to be to be the same as the SAMBA_2_0 branchAndrew Tridgell1-279/+548

1999-12-05reenabled retry_time (commented out accidentally in name_status)Luke Leighton1-1/+1
(This used to be commit bf9422832c335c8d283273eb1d0008ac15cd3531)
1999-12-04argh! how horrible! spent ages working out why packets weren't beingLuke Leighton1-15/+13
received properly when a UDP "retry" occurs. it's because reads and writes must be interleaved / matched. scenario: nmblookup connects to agent, sends request. agent receives request, broadcasts it on 137. agent RECEIVES 137 broadcast, sends it to nmblookup agent receives RESPONSE to 137 broadcast, sends it to nmblookup. if reads are not equally interspersed with writes, then second send will fail. if you think this is odd behaviour and that the agent should be filtering its own UDP traffic, think again. agent will be, potentially, redirecting nmbd traffic (including WINS server) not just client programs. (This used to be commit 43e158c4261e51678d6e7f77ceb4a1c7281a2525)
1999-12-04argh. trying to get the nmb agent code to filter out "self" packets.Luke Leighton1-9/+3
(This used to be commit 84d7cc63239ea67481f6382da58d0678a21011fb)
1999-12-04jeremy is going to hate me for this.Luke Leighton1-18/+56
created an "nmb-agent" utility that, yes: it connects to the 137 socket and accepts unix socket connections which it redirects onto port 137. it uses the name_trn_id field to filter requests to the correct location. name_query() and name_status() are the first victims to use this feature (by specifying a file descriptor of -1). (This used to be commit d923bc8da2cf996408194d98381409191dd81a16)

1999-11-26whoa. _major_ restructure of rpcclient. fixed some buuugs, created a few.Luke Leighton1-0/+24
found out that getopt() _must_ have optind set to 0 before reuse. still haven't decided what to do with the net* api yet... (This used to be commit 29c480085e786905bfd92ea3cd93658f94e96e47)
1998-11-17Added the same open()/fopen()/creat()/mmap() -> sys_XXX calls.Jeremy Allison1-1/+1
Tidied up some of the mess (no other word for it). Still doesn't compile cleanly. There are calls with incorrect parameters that don't seem to be doing the right thing. This code still needs surgery :-(. Jeremy. (This used to be commit 18ff93a9abbf68ee8c59c0af3e57c63e4a015dac)
1998-11-16fixed lmhosts parsing. We were using sizeof(name) where name was char*Andrew Tridgell1-3/+2
(This used to be commit 67ba0b1ce335bc80e1c33fa28458ec9ebe5f446a)
1998-11-12largely rewrote smbpasswd so that the code is understandable. ThisAndrew Tridgell1-6/+6
should allow us to call a function in swat rather than piping to smbpasswd. while doing this I also fixed quite a few "const char *" versus "char *" issues that cropped up while using const to track down bugs in the code. This led to changes in several generic functions. The smbpasswd changes should be correct but they have not been extensively tested. At least if I have introduced bugs then we should be able to fix them more easily than before. (This used to be commit 713864dd0322ae2ae2d83e333d85be35a7eed4ec)
1998-11-06lib/charcnv.c: Improved debug comment.Jeremy Allison1-48/+69

- got smbtorture to compile - removed %D from some of lukes code - Luke, what is %D? it ain't portable anyway (This used to be commit 91597c12fb593f49b23c7cea5b64dbb89a0428b3)
1998-10-04- modified resolve_name() to take a name_typeAndrew Tridgell1-148/+173
- cleaned up resolve_name() (split into separate functions for each resolver) - if can't find local master then use #1B name - support listing of foreign workgroups in /smb/ (This used to be commit a4e607c17d1119925c9d0e1d05e0fe81e9a2d1aa)
1998-10-04support NetServerEnum in smbwrapper. You can now do a ls in /smb/ andAndrew Tridgell1-1/+40

1998-09-28Changes to test in configure if capabilities are enabled on a system.Jeremy Allison1-4/+4
Changes to get Samba to compile cleanly with the IRIX compiler with the options : -fullwarn -woff 1209,1174 (the -woff options are to turn off warnings about unused function parameters and controlling loop expressions being constants). Split prototype generation as we hit a limit in IRIX nawk. Removed "." code in smbd/filename.c (yet again :-). Jeremy. (This used to be commit e0567433bd72aec17bf5a54cc292701095d25f09)

1998-05-12This is a security audit change of the main source.Jeremy Allison1-12/+12
It removed all ocurrences of the following functions : sprintf strcpy strcat The replacements are slprintf, safe_strcpy and safe_strcat. It should not be possible to use code in Samba that uses sprintf, strcpy or strcat, only the safe_equivalents. Once Andrew has fixed the slprintf implementation then this code will be moved back to the 1.9.18 code stream. Jeremy. (This used to be commit 2d774454005f0b54e5684cf618da7060594dfcbb)

This beats a problem with zombies on heavilily loaded systems. - added internals.doc written by David Chappell into the source tree - get rid of PRINT_COMMAND options from local.h as they are no longer relevent - new kanji code from Fujita - don't set the recursion_available flag on queries in nmbd - fix a potential bug with pointer subtraction in printing.c - got rid of error_count code as the real fix (the EOF problem) is now in (This used to be commit aa6f8b04d125b5bc00f267abf72b800228aabf7d)
1996-08-01local_only NetServerEnum syncs can now be issued.Samba Release Account1-7/+7
bug spotted in nameservresp.c - arguments to test subnet the response is received on (same_net()) were the wrong way round (ccm@shentel.net) samba was adding WORKGROUP(1e) as a unique not a group name: fixed this bug in reply_name_status() and reply_name_query(): WINS entries weren't being looked up. name status reply adds local SELF entries to WINS SELF entries: some SELF entries are only added locally, while others are only added via WINS. name status needs to have both, combined. a sync will only occur when an ANN_LocalMasterAnnouncement is received, NOT an ANN_HostAnnouncement or an ANN_DomainAnnouncement. when samba is a member of a workgroup, it looks for (using a wins server) and announces to its domain master. NAME_QUERY_ANNOUNCE_HOST - yet another 'state' - has been created to do this: do the name query on the wins server and send the announce host to the answer to this query. jeremy @ vantive wrote the original code to do this, which used the name_query() function. i'm trying to avoid name_query: it times out and generally messes things up, but using queue_netbios_packet() and queue_netbios_pkt_wins() is... not intuitive? lkcl with help from jra (This used to be commit 6e932e4bae8b46e7ff4a55a75484bad78308336a)
