5 This chapter deals exclusively with the differences between Samba-3.0.20 and Samba-2.2.8a.
6 It points out where configuration parameters have changed, and provides a simple guide for
7 the move from 2.2.x to 3.0.20.

9 Samba-3.0.20 default behavior should be approximately the same as Samba-2.2.x.
10 The default behavior when the new parameter <a class="indexterm" name="id2642862"></a>passdb backend
11 is not defined in the <code class="filename">smb.conf</code> file provides the same default behavior as Samba-2.2.x
12 with <a class="indexterm" name="id2642876"></a>encrypt passwords = Yes and
13 will use the <code class="filename">smbpasswd</code> database.
15 <a class="indexterm" name="id2642893"></a>
16 <a class="indexterm" name="id2642900"></a>
17 So why say that <span class="emphasis"><em>behavior should be approximately the same as Samba-2.2.x</em></span>? Because
18 Samba-3.0.20 can negotiate new protocols, such as support for native Unicode, that may result in
19 differing protocol code paths being taken. The new behavior under such circumstances is not
20 exactly the same as the old one. The good news is that the domain and machine SIDs will be
21 preserved across the upgrade.
23 <a class="indexterm" name="id2642920"></a>
24 <a class="indexterm" name="id2642927"></a>
25 <a class="indexterm" name="id2642934"></a>
26 <a class="indexterm" name="id2642941"></a>
27 If the Samba-2.2.x system is using an LDAP backend, and there is no time to update the LDAP
28 database, then make sure that <a class="indexterm" name="id2642950"></a>passdb backend = ldapsam_compat
29 is specified in the <code class="filename">smb.conf</code> file. For the rest, behavior should remain more or less the same.
30 At a later date, when there is time to implement a new Samba-3-compatible LDAP backend, it is possible
31 to migrate the old LDAP database to the new one through use of the <span><strong class="command">pdbedit</strong></span>.
32 See <a href="passdb.html#pdbeditthing" title="The pdbedit Tool">The <span class="emphasis"><em>pdbedit</em></span> Command</a>.

34 The major new features are:
35 </p><div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1"><li><p>
36 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643010"></a>
37 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643016"></a>
38 Active Directory support. This release is able to join an ADS realm
39 as a member server and authenticate users using LDAP/Kerberos.
41 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643030"></a>
42 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643036"></a>
43 Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate Unicode on the wire, and
44 internally there is a much better infrastructure for multibyte
45 and Unicode character sets.
47 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643050"></a>
48 New authentication system. The internal authentication system has
49 been almost completely rewritten. Most of the changes are internal,
50 but the new authoring system is also very configurable.
52 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643065"></a>
53 New filename mangling system. The filename mangling system has been
54 completely rewritten. An internal database now stores mangling maps
57 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643079"></a>
58 New “<span class="quote">net</span>” command. A new “<span class="quote">net</span>” command has been added. It is
59 somewhat similar to the “<span class="quote">net</span>” command in Windows. Eventually, we
60 plan to replace a bunch of other utilities (such as smbpasswd)
61 with subcommands in “<span class="quote">net</span>”.
63 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643107"></a>
64 Samba now negotiates NT-style status32 codes on the wire. This
65 considerably improves error handling.
67 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643120"></a>
68 Better Windows 200x/XP printing support, including publishing
69 printer attributes in Active Directory.
71 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643133"></a>
72 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643140"></a>
73 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643147"></a>
74 New loadable RPC modules for passdb backends and character sets.
76 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643159"></a>
77 New default dual-daemon winbindd support for better performance.
79 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643172"></a>
80 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643179"></a>
81 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643186"></a>
82 Support for migrating from a Windows NT 4.0 domain to a Samba
83 domain and maintaining user, group, and domain SIDs.
85 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643199"></a>
86 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643206"></a>
87 Support for establishing trust relationships with Windows NT 4.0
90 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643218"></a>
91 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643226"></a>
92 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643232"></a>
93 Initial support for a distributed Winbind architecture using
94 an LDAP directory for storing SID to UID/GID mappings.
96 Major updates to the Samba documentation tree.
98 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643251"></a>
99 <a class="indexterm" name="id2643258"></a>
100 Full support for client and server SMB signing to ensure
101 compatibility with default Windows 2003 security settings.
102 </p></li></ol></div><p>

119 preserved across server migrations, updates and upgrades.
121 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644110"></a>
122 Please remember to back up your existing ${lock directory}/*tdb before upgrading to Samba-3. If necessary, Samba will
123 upgrade databases as they are opened. Downgrading from Samba-3 to 2.2, or reversion to an earlier version
124 of Samba-3 from a later release, is an unsupported path.

130 The following issues are known changes in behavior between Samba-2.2 and
131 Samba-3 that may affect certain installations of Samba.
132 </p><div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1"><li><p>
133 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644447"></a>
134 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644454"></a>
135 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644461"></a>
136 When operating as a member of a Windows domain, Samba-2.2 would map any users authenticated by the remote DC
137 to the “<span class="quote">guest account</span>” if a UID could not be obtained via the getpwnam() call. Samba-3 rejects
138 the connection with the error message “<span class="quote">NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE.</span>” There is no current workaround
139 to re-establish the Samba-2.2 behavior.
141 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644485"></a>
142 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644492"></a>
143 When adding machines to a Samba-2.2 controlled domain, the
144 “<span class="quote">add user script</span>” was used to create the UNIX identity of the
145 machine trust account. Samba-3 introduces a new “<span class="quote">add machine
146 script</span>” that must be specified for this purpose. Samba-3 will
147 not fall back to using the “<span class="quote">add user script</span>” in the absence of
148 an “<span class="quote">add machine script</span>”.
149 </p></li></ol></div></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="id2644522"></a>Passdb Backends and Authentication</h3></div></div></div><p>
150 There have been a few new changes that Samba administrators should be
151 aware of when moving to Samba-3.
152 </p><div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1"><li><p>
153 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644543"></a>
154 Encrypted passwords have been enabled by default in order to
155 interoperate better with out-of-the-box Windows client
156 installations. This does mean that either (a) a Samba account
157 must be created for each user, or (b) “<span class="quote">encrypt passwords = no</span>”
158 must be explicitly defined in <code class="filename">smb.conf</code>.
160 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644568"></a>
161 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644575"></a>
162 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644582"></a>
163 Inclusion of new <a class="indexterm" name="id2644589"></a>security = ads option for integration
164 with an Active Directory domain using the native Windows Kerberos 5 and LDAP protocols.
165 </p></li></ol></div><p>
166 <a class="indexterm" name="id2644602"></a>
167 Samba-3 also includes the possibility of setting up chains of authentication methods (<a class="indexterm" name="id2644611"></a>auth methods) and account storage backends (<a class="indexterm" name="id2644619"></a>passdb backend). Please refer to

170 the values actually mean in order to ensure Samba operates correctly.

185 A new object class (sambaSamAccount) has been introduced to replace
186 the old sambaAccount. This change aids in the renaming of attributes
187 to prevent clashes with attributes from other vendors. There is a
188 conversion script (examples/LDAP/convertSambaAccount) to modify an LDIF
189 file to the new schema.

205 Under Samba-2.x the domain SID can be obtained by executing:

215 The old <code class="literal">sambaAccount</code> schema may still be used by specifying the
216 <em class="parameter"><code>ldapsam_compat</code></em> passdb backend. However, the sambaAccount and
217 associated attributes have been moved to the historical section of
218 the schema file and must be uncommented before use if needed.
219 The Samba-2.2 object class declaration for a <code class="literal">sambaAccount</code> has not changed
220 in the Samba-3 <code class="filename">samba.schema</code> file.
222 Other new object classes and their uses include:

230 <code class="literal">sambaDomain</code> domain information used to allocate RIDs
231 for users and groups as necessary. The attributes are added
232 in “<span class="quote">ldap suffix</span>” directory entry automatically if
233 an idmap UID/GID range has been set and the “<span class="quote">ldapsam</span>”
234 passdb backend has been selected.

239 sambaGroupMapping an object representing the
240 relationship between a posixGroup and a Windows
241 group/SID. These entries are stored in the “<span class="quote">ldap

271 If an <em class="parameter"><code>ldap suffix</code></em> is defined, it will be appended to all of the
272 remaining subsuffix parameters. In this case, the order of the suffix
273 listings in <code class="filename">smb.conf</code> is important. Always place the <em class="parameter"><code>ldap suffix</code></em> first
276 Due to a limitation in Samba's <code class="filename">smb.conf</code> parsing, you should not surround
277 the domain names with quotation marks.

280 Samba-3 supports an LDAP backend for the idmap subsystem. The
281 following options inform Samba that the idmap table should be
282 stored on the directory server <span class="emphasis"><em>onterose</em></span> in the ou=idmap,dc=quenya,dc=org partition.
283 </p><table class="simplelist" border="0" summary="Simple list"><tr><td> </td></tr><tr><td><em class="parameter"><code>[global]</code></em></td></tr><tr><td>...</td></tr><tr><td><a class="indexterm" name="id2645304"></a><em class="parameter"><code>idmap backend = ldap:ldap://onterose/</code></em></td></tr><tr><td><a class="indexterm" name="id2645317"></a><em class="parameter"><code>ldap idmap suffix = ou=idmap,dc=quenya,dc=org</code></em></td></tr><tr><td><a class="indexterm" name="id2645331"></a><em class="parameter"><code>idmap uid = 40000-50000</code></em></td></tr><tr><td><a class="indexterm" name="id2645344"></a><em class="parameter"><code>idmap gid = 40000-50000</code></em></td></tr></table><p>
284 <a class="indexterm" name="id2645358"></a>
285 This configuration allows Winbind installations on multiple servers to
286 share a UID/GID number space, thus avoiding the interoperability problems
287 with NFS that were present in Samba-2.2.
