-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It's been a while since our last release and Shirish's new cifs.idmap utility has now been merged. The last release was 4.9, so I've been a bit torn -- should I call this one 4.10 or 5.0? Then I figured...when in doubt, copy Linus. Since he just bumped the major version number of the kernel, this is now version 5.0. The main changes: -

We've had a number of changes since the last release, and we have some other upcoming kernel changes that might require corresponding cifs-utils changes. So it's probably as good a time as any for a new release. Highlights: + fix for a minor security issue that can corrupt the mtab + new getcifsacl/setcifsacl tools that allow you to fetch and set raw Windows ACLs via an xattr. + a

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Things have been relatively quiet lately. Time for a release! Highlights: * A lot of manpage updates, additions and corrections * cifs.idmap can now map uid/gid to SID in addition to the other way around * getcifsacl/setcifsacl are now installed by default in /usr/bin instead of /usr/sbin. The manpages are now in section 1. * cifs.upcall has a

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Time for another cifs-utils release! Most of the patches in this release are for cifs.idmap, getcifsacl and setcifsacl. There were many bugs in those tools, so anyone that's deploying or using them is highly encouraged to upgrade. Highlights: * NFS-style device names are being deprecated in 6.0. Anyone using that sort of device name should

The main changes in this release are moving generation of manpages to .rst format and updating default behavior of the protocol version selection (auto-negotiate). webpage: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/LinuxCIFS_utils tarball: https://download.samba.org/pub/linux-cifs/cifs-utils/ git: git://git.samba.org/cifs-utils.git gitweb:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Time for a new cifs-utils release! The big bullet point in this release is a new pam_cifscreds module that has been added by Orion Poplawski. This release also cleans some unused cruft out of some of the binaries so they're quite a bit smaller now and fixes a few bugs that Coverity turned up. Go forth and download! webpage:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 With the overhaul of the cifscreds utility, I figured this would be a good time to do a new release. Highlights: * admins can now tell cifs.upcall to use an alternate krb5.conf file * on remount, mount.cifs no longer adds a duplicate mtab entry * the cifscreds utility has seen a major overhaul to allow for multiuser mounts without krb5 auth

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It has been a few months since the last cifs-utils release. There hasn't been much activity, but there are a few bugfixes that we ought to get into a release. So, nothing much earth-shattering here, mostly just bugfixes and documentation updates. With this release too, support for NFS-style devicenames has now been removed (as previously

The main change in this release is to address some regressions that crept in when we switched to a scheme that does not rely on walking /tmp to look for credcaches. We now will use the information from the kernel about the initiating pid, reach into that task's environment and scrape out the $KRB5CCNAME variable. This can be problematic in setuid situations, so we avoid doing that for the

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It has been a while since I've cut a new release for cifs-utils. This one has more visible changes than were in the last few releases. Major highlights: - - documentation additions for the fsc option - - mount.cifs deals with _netdev, mand and nomand options correctly now - - a change in how mount.cifs handles the MS_MANDLOCK flag. It used to

Time for a new cifs-utils release! The main change in this release is a set of cleanups to cifs.upcall to make it more efficient and work better with alternate style credcaches. No longer does it blithely stumble around in /tmp looking for credcaches. We now just use the default credcache that to which the krb5.conf points. Go forth and download!

This release is primarily a number of small bugfixes and cleanups. I wanted to do a release with those prior to the coming overhaul of mount.cifs to allow it to more safely be installed setuid root. There a couple of other noticeable changes too: - the version reported by all programs in the tarball now matches the VERSION define set by autoconf. That is, if someone runs "mount.cifs

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Again, nothing earth-shattering in this release. Mostly some minor bugfixes and cleanups. Some highlights: - - setcifsacl can now work without a plugin - - systemd-ask-password is found using $PATH now - - cifs.upcall now works with KEYRING: credcaches Go forth and download! webpage: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/LinuxCIFS_utils tarball:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 This release contains a significant overhaul of mount.cifs that is intended to make it safer to install setuid root. With this release, setuid capability is no longer disabled by default. Among the changes are: - - mount.cifs now does privilege separation. It forks very early and the child drops privileges. Most of the mount option processing is
