ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 5.9 ready for download
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 With the merge of the new plugin interface, it's probably a good time for a new cifs-utils release. Distro packagers should take special note of the changes with the new plugin interface since it has implications for how the tools are packaged. In particular, it's necessary to set a symlink to the plugin in the correct location

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 6.3 ready for download
-----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:

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 6.0 ready for download
-----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

cifs-utils release 6.7 ready for download
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

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 5.1 available for download
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

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 5.8 is ready for download
-----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.

Anyone using that sort of device name should

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 5.0 available for download
-----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: -

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 6.6 ready for download
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!

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 5.3 is ready for download
-----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

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 6.4 ready for download
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Wow, about 6 months since last cifs-utils release. How time flies. With Guenter's fix for the uppercasing of device names last week, it's probably a good time to go ahead make a new one. There's not much activity this cycle so this is mostly bugfixes, though there is a new autoconf option to allow you to configure the PAM installation

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 5.5 is ready for download
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Nothing terribly earth-shattering in this release. We had a number of reports of build-breaking problems in version 5.4, mostly due to the fact that we now turn on -Werror by default, and a number of patches to fix them. I'm starting to have doubts as to whether it's a good idea to keep - -Werror in the default CFLAGS. This is built in a

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 6.1 ready for download
It has been a few months since the last cifs-utils release, and again there's been almost no activity. Still, at some point we need to get the bugfixes into the field, no matter how minor they are. So, nothing much earth-shattering here, mostly just bugfixes, and one new feature to allow cifs.upcall to use a dedicated keytab. Go forth and download! webpage:

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 5.6 is ready for download
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Time for another cifs-utils release! Nothing terribly earth shattering here. Some distros (like Fedora) are moving krb5 credcaches out of /tmp by default. Users of these distros will definitely want to upgrade. Highlights: * Fixes for mounting with '/' in usernames with sec=krb5 * Support for DIR: type krb5 ccaches * support for

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 6.5 ready for download
Nothing Earth-shattering here, but it has been quite some time (well over a year!) since the last release. There has been little activity other than a few minor bugfixes. But, this is probably a reasonable time to do a release that to make things easier on the packaging folks: webpage: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/LinuxCIFS_utils tarball: ftp://ftp.samba.org/pub/linux-cifs/cifs-utils/

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 4.1 available for 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

ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 4.3 available for download
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 This release is primarily to fix a few bugs that were introduced with the mount.cifs overhaul in the last release. Most of the problems were issues with the handling of capabilities that prevented credential files from being accessed when mount.cifs was run by root. There are a few other changes: - - credential files accept parameter names
