        adding "unix extensions = no" to the [global] section of
        the /etc/samba/smb.conf configuration file.

  • samba (3.0.27a-2ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low
    
      * Merge from debian unstable (LP: #174296), remaining changes:
        * debian/patches/VERSION.patch:
          - set SAMBA_VERSION_VENDOR_SUFFIX to Ubuntu
        * debian/smb.conf:
          - Add "(Samba, Ubuntu)" to server string.
          - Comment out the default [homes] shares and add more verbose comments to
            explain what they do and how they work (LP #27608). Also, add a
            comment about "valid users = %S" to show users how to restrict access
            to \\server\username to only username.
          - default passwd chat value is modified
        * debian/samba-common.config:
          - do not change priority to HIGH if dhclient3 is installed
          - use priority medium instead of high for the workgroup question
        * Set Ubuntu maintainer address.
    
    samba (3.0.27a-2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/disable-weak-auth.patch: disable plaintext authentication
        on the client, and lanman authentication on both client and server, by
        default since these are only needed for Win9x or Samba with encrypted
        passwords disabled and are potential password attack vectors.  This
        change is backported from Samba 3.2.  LP: #163194.
      * Don't build the userspace tools for the deprecated smbfs kernel driver
        anymore; instead, use a shell wrapper around mount.cifs that translates
        option names between the smbfs and cifs drivers.
        Closes: #169624, #256637, #265468, #289179, #305210, #410075;
        LP: #29413
      * debian/panic-action: detect when we're on an Ubuntu system and direct bug
        reporters to Launchpad instead of to the Debian BTS.  Closes: #452940.
      * debian/samba.init: call log_progress_msg separately for each daemon on
        stop rather than passing a second arg to log_daemon_msg, for greater
        compatibility with both Debian and Ubuntu LSB initscript implementations.
        Closes: #453350.
      * Drop smbldap-tools to Suggests:, consistent with the textbook meaning of
        recommends/suggests which is now implemented correctly in apt.
        Closes: #453144.
      * Get rid of the build-dependency on type-handling:
        - add a new target, "update-archs", to be invoked by hand to refresh
          the list of known Linux architectures for the libacl1-dev
          build-dep; this avoids the clean target making changes to
          debian/control
        - rework the sed line so that it works in-place on debian/control,
          so we can get rid of debian/control.in as well and just update
          debian/control directly
        Closes: #340570.

      * Merge from debian unstable (LP: #165072), remaining changes:
        * debian/patches/VERSION.patch:
          - set SAMBA_VERSION_VENDOR_SUFFIX to Ubuntu
        * debian/control:
          - Remove type-handling (not used in Ubuntu)
        * debian/rules:
          - Remove type-handling.
        * debian/samba.init:
          - Ubuntu's log_progress_msg is a no-op, so to avoid confusion, don't
            say specifically which daemons we're handling. (LP #25803)
        * debian/smb.conf:
          - Add "(Samba, Ubuntu)" to server string.
          - Comment out the default [homes] shares and add more verbose comments to
            explain what they do and how they work (LP #27608). Also, add a

          - default passwd chat value is modified
        * debian/panic-action:
          - Alter the panic-action script to link to the samba bug reporting page
            on Launchpad.
        * debian/samba-common.config:
          - do not change priority to HIGH if dhclient3 is installed
          - use priority medium instead of high for the workgroup question
        * Set Ubuntu maintainer address.
      * Bugs fixed in Debian:
        - Enable net usershare (LP: #128548)
      * Ubuntu patches merged in Debian:
        * debian/smb.conf:
          - "printer admin" is a deprecated option, and is dropped
            completely from the examples.
        * debian/samba-common.templates:
          - Default workgroup value is now set to WORKGROUP; this is a
            change from previous Ubuntu versions which used MSHOME, but is
            consistent with the Samba upstream defaults and the default
            behavior for most versions of Windows.
      * Ubuntu patches dropped:
        * debian/rules:
          - Samba should not use --error-handler=true for its init script.
        * debian/samba-common.templates, debian/po/*.po:
          - unnecessary divergence from Debian debconf template which
            resulted in fuzzy translations; this is cleaned up now

      [ Steve Langasek ]
      * New upstream release
        - fix regression with smbfs clients, introduced by the security fix in
          3.0.27.  Closes: #451839.
        - debian/patches/cifs-umount-trailing-slashes.patch: merged upstream.
      * Drop the deprecated "printer admin" example from the default smb.conf.
        Closes: #451273.
      * Add a *new* debian/patches/cups.patch to *enable* cups as the default
        printing system, because since the original introduction of this patch
        in Debian there was a regression upstream that caused cups to never be
        selected as the default print system.
      * Set the default value for the workgroup question to "WORKGROUP" in
        samba-common.templates, not just in the template smb.conf, so that the
        debconf question comes out right every time; and always treat this
        as a high-priority debconf question instead of selecting the
        priority based on whether there's an existing value, since there's
        now *always* an existing value but the value doesn't tell us
        anything meaningful about the user's preference.  Closes: #451271.
      * Drop some code from samba.postinst that only applies to upgrades from
        pre-3.0 (i.e., pre-sarge) packages

      * Update the "built by" part of README.debian
      * Remove the very outdated parts of README.debian

      * New upstream version
        - fixes a remote code execution vulnerability when running nmbd as a
          WINS server. (CVE-2007-5398; closes: #451385)
        - fixes a buffer overflow in nmbd when running as a domain controller
          during processing of GETDC logon server requests. (CVE-2007-4572)
    
      [ Steve Langasek ]
      * fhs.patch: net usershares should also be stored under /var/lib, not under
        /var/run.  No transition handling in maintainer scripts, since this
        feature is not activated by default.
      * get_global_sam_sid-non-root.patch: avoid calling get_global_sam_sid()
        from smbpasswd -L or pam_smbpass when running as non-root, to avoid a
        foreseeable panic.  Closes: #346547, #450738.
      * usershare.patch: enable "user shares" by default in the server with a
        default limit of 100, to support user shares on both upgrades and new
        installs with no need to munge config files.  Thanks to Mathias Gug
        <email address hidden> for the patch.  Closes: #443230.
      * On Ubuntu, support autopopulating the sambashare group using the existing
        members of the admin group; no equivalent handling is done on Debian,
        because there doesn't seem to be an appropriate template group we can use
        that wouldn't be considered a privilege escalation for those users.
      * Update Samba to explicitly use the C locale when doing password changes,
        to account for Linux-PAM's recently adopted i18n support.
        Closes: #451272.
      * Enforce creation of the pid directory (/var/run/samba) in the samba
        init script, for compatibility with systems that use a tmpfs for
        /var/run.  Closes: #451270.
      * debian/patches/cups.patch, debian/NEWS: drop the patch to force bsd
        as the default printing system, as CUPS is now the dominant/default
        printing system for Linux.
    
      [ Debconf translations ]
      * Hebrew added. Closes: #444054
    
      [ Christian Perrier ]
      * Split fhs.patch into 3 separate patches to make upstream integration
        easier:
        - fhs-newpaths.patch: introduce new paths
        - fhs-filespaths.patch: assign files to new paths
        - fhs-assignpaths.patch: assign paths to FHS-compatible locations
      * Compile with DNS update support. Thanks to Matthias Gug for
        reporting and contributions from Launchpad's #156686
        Closes: #449422

      * debian/patches/chgpasswd.patch:
        - Also set the locale to 'C' when using PAM for password changes,
          since the PAM conversation is equally affected by PAM l10n support
          (LP: #139265).
