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 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: -

-----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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The last release (4.7) was back in October. We've had a number of good fixes committed in the last few weeks, so it's a good time to cut a new release. Also, note that I've transplanted the cifs-utils manpage to the Samba Wiki. The old URL still works and redirects browsers to the new page. o hardcoded paths in the cifs.upcall manpage

Hello, Not exactly samba but related to ntfs acls, so hope do not get flamed! Recently I am seeing a response to get security descriptor query to Windows server as Malformed Packet in wireshark trace and the number of aces in the dacl in big endian format. I thought all the data over the wire was in little endian format! I have seen this on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. Have not

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 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

Sometimes a group sid does not get resolved to its name. Is this a settings problem? Looks like winbind deamon went dormant for a while and then woke up? I am using interface wbcLookupSid provided by the library libwbclient.so for resolving sids to names. These are the winbind related parameters in /etc/samba/smb.conf [global] # separate domain and username with '\', like

-----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

Hello, When I mount a cifs share from Windows server onto a linux client, all I am interested in is sid to uid and gid and vice versa mapping. Can I accomplish that using just windbind and not samba server and nmbd i.e. have a windbind.conf file with the pertinent stanza! Say I just give the Windows share server name/ip address and sid to winbind deamon via one of its existing APIs, can it
