samba - Dec 2011 - ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 5.2 available for download

-----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 new scheme for picking the SPN on krb5 mounts. The
  hostname is now always lowercased. If we fail to get a ticket using
  an unqualified name, it now attempts to guess the domain name.

    acltools: install them in $bindir, not $sbindir
    
    Move the manpages to section 1 since getcifsacl and setcifsacl are user,
    not sysadmin tools. Get rid of the useless sed calls on the manpages.
    They don't have any explicit paths in them that need replacing.
    
    Also get rid of the "4.0" in the footers of all the manpages.

    manpage: move SEE ALSO section in setcifsacl.1 nearer to bottom
    
    The convention is to have that close to the bottom of the manpage. In
    this case, we want it after the EXAMPLES section.

    Add functions to map a uid and gid to a SID.  These functions are
    similar to SID to uid and gid mapping functions. A SID is what is
    returned to the cifs module.

    cifs.upcall: always lowercase the hostname
    
    Most KDCs are case-sensitive (the notable exception being AD), but DNS
    is case-insensitive. To prevent admins from having to put in all
    possible case combinations of a principal, lowercase the hostname prior
    to trying to get a principal.

    cifs.upcall: move to Andrew's suggested algorithm for picking a
principal
    
    Andrew Bartlett suggests the heuristic supplied in the comments.
    
    For now, we don't try to guess the domainname when the hostname is not
    qualified, but add a comment with what needs to be done in order to
    support that.
    
    Also, with this change we no longer need util.o to be linked in.

    cifs.upcall: try and guess the domain name on unqualified names
    
    Resolve the unqualified hostname and set AI_CANONNAME to make sure that
    field is populated. Scan forward to the first '.' in ai_canonname,
and
    append that value onto the unqualified hostname to get a FQDN. Then
    prepend that value with "cifs/" and try to get a service ticket
for
    that principal.
