samba-3.0.22.tar.gz 编译smb服务器的源码

0. Samba Team Notes:
This package is targeted at the woody release of debian distribution
running on a 2.4.x kernel.
This package has been made by Simo Sorce on behalf of the Samba Team.
Do not use Debian BTS to report bugs, it's not a debian project package.
Thanks to Eloy Paris and Steve "Vorlon" Langasek for the work they've done
and continue to do on debian unstable packages. That made me possible to
build up debian packages for the Team.


ATTENTION: This package works correctly only with recent 2.4.x kernels due to
deep optimizations that samba uses when compiled on such kernels.

Samba for Debian
----------------

This package was built by Eloy Paris <[e-mail]> and Steve Langasek
<[e-mail]>, current maintainers of the Samba packages for Debian,
based on previous work from Bruce Perens <[e-mail]>, Andrew
Howell <[e-mail]>, Klee Dienes <[e-mail]> and Michael
Meskes <[e-mail]>, all previous maintainers of the packages
samba and sambades (merged together for longer than we can remember.)

5. Reporting bugs


1. Notes
--------

- As of Samba 2.0.6-1, the Debian version of Samba is compiled with
  Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) support. PAM support was 
  discontinued during the libc5 -> libc6 migration process and I never
  brought it back until 2.0.6-1.

- The smbfs package does not support the 2.0.x Linux kernels anymore.
  This has been the case since the very first packages of the CVS sources
  that eventually became Samba 2.2. To use the smbfs package you need to
  run a 2.2.x kernel or later.

- Starting with the Debian packages for Samba 2.2, the Samba log files (for
  nmbd and smbd) have been moved to a new location: /var/log/samba/. The
  files also have new names: log.nmbd and log.smbd. The old files
  (/var/log/{nmb,smb} were moved to the new location.


2. Upgrading from Samba 2.2
---------------------------

Samba 3.0 provides greatly improved support for modern Windows systems,
including support for Unicode and LDAP.  In the process, Samba 3.0
necessarily also breaks backward compatiblity with past releases.  These
issues are documented herein; if you are aware of other problems related
to upgrading from Samba 2.2, please let us know at
<[e-mail]>.

Samba and LDAP
--------------
Starting with Samba 2.999+3.0cvs20020723-1 we are building Samba with
LDAP support.  However, the LDAP schema for Samba 3.0 differs
substantially from the schema used by many sites with Samba 2.2 (not
enabled in the Debian packages).  If upgrading from an LDAP-enabled 2.2,
you will need to run the convertSambaAccount script found in
/usr/share/doc/samba-doc/examples/LDAP.  A copy of the schema itself can
also be found at /usr/share/doc/samba-doc/examples/LDAP/samba.schema.

Character Sets
--------------
Samba 3.0 introduces support for negotiating Unicode (UCS-2LE) with
Windows clients.  Owing to the close similarity between Windows and Unix
NLS charsets, in the past, many users were able to pass filenames
containing non-ASCII characters between clients and servers without
configuring Samba to know what character set was in use.  Now, Samba
must be able to convert Unix filenames to Unicode before sending to the
client, so Samba must know what character set the filenames are being
converted from.  If you will be sharing files with non-ASCII names, and
the filenames are not encoded with UTF-8, you will need to tell Samba
which character set to use with the 'unix charset' option.

If you had previously specified 'character set' and 'client code page'
options under 2.2, these settings should be automatically converted for
you.


3. Packages Generated from the Samba Sources
--------------------------------------------

Currently, the Samba sources produce the following binary packages:

samba: A LanManager like file and printer server for Unix.
samba-common: Samba common files used by both the server and the client.
smbclient: A LanManager like simple client for Unix.
swat: Samba Web Administration Tool
samba-doc: Samba documentation.
smbfs: Mount and umount commands for the smbfs (works with 2.2.x and
	above kernels, not with 2.0.x kernels.)
libpam-smbpass: pluggable authentication module for SMB password
	database.
libsmbclient: Shared library that allows applications to talk to SMB servers.
libsmbclient-dev: libsmbclient shared libraries.
winbind: Service to resolve user and group information from a Windows NT 
	server.
python2.2-samba: Python bindings that allow access to various aspects of
	Samba.

Please note that the package smbwrapper (a shared library that provides
SMB client services that existed between Samba 2.0.0-1 and Samba-2.0.5a-4
does not exist any more. The reason is that starting with Samba 2.0.6-1, that
code does not even compile, and the upstream author (Andrew Tridgell)
recommended to disable the compilation of smbwrapper until some issues
with glibc2.1 get cleared out (the problem is with glibc, not with Samba
itself).


4. Support for NT Domains
-------------------------

Samba 2.2 includes preliminary support for NT domains. A Samba server
can now be part of a Windows NT domain whose Primary Domain Controller
is a Windows NT server. This feature is supposed to be stable although I
haven't tried it myself. Read the documentation in the samba-doc package
for help on how to do this (hint: "security = domain" in the smb.conf
file).

Samba 2.2 has also experimental support for Primary Domain
Controller. This means that a Samba server can act now as a PDC. There
are no special flags needed to compile Samba with NT domain PDC
support. Please read the NTDOM PDC FAQ at www.samba.org (Documentation
section).

Please note that NT domain PDC support is far from complete and is still 
experimental.


5. Reporting Bugs
-----------------

**** NOTE: This package is distributed by the Samba Team based on Debian
     packages, please submit bus to https://bugzilla.samba.org instead ****

If you believe you have found a bug please make sure the possible bug
also exists in the latest version of Samba that is available for the
unstable Debian distribution. If you are running Debian stable this
means that you will probably have to build your own packages. And if the
problem does not exist in the latest version of Samba we have packaged it
means that you will have to run the version of Samba you built yourself
since it is not easy to upload new packages to the stable distribution,
unless they fix critical security problems.

If you can reproduce the problem in the latest version of Samba then
it is likely to be a real bug. Your best shot is to search the Samba
mailing lists to see if it is something that has already been reported
and fixed - if it is a simple fix we can add the patch to our packages
without waiting for a new Samba release.

If you decide that your problem deserves to be submitted to the Debian
Bug Tracking System (BTS) we expect you to be responsive if we request
more information. If we request more information and do not receive
any in a reasonable time frame expect to see your bug closed without
explanation - we can't fix bugs we can't reproduce, and most of the
time we need more information to be able to reproduce them.

When submitting a bug to the Debian BTS please include the version of
the Debian package you are using as well as the Debian distribution you
are using. Think _twice_ about the severity you assign to the bug: we
are _very_ sensitive about bug severities; the fact that it doesn't
work for you doesn't mean that the severity must be such that it holds
a major Debian release. In fact, that it doesn't work for you it
doesn't mean that it doesn't work for others. So again: think _twice_.
