Fedora: samba-3.0.9-1.fc2 update
Summary
Samba is the protocol by which a lot of PC-related machines share
files, printers, and other information (such as lists of available
files and printers). The Windows NT, OS/2, and Linux operating systems
support this natively, and add-on packages can enable the same thing
for DOS, Windows, VMS, UNIX of all kinds, MVS, and more. This package
provides an SMB server that can be used to provide network services to
SMB (sometimes called "Lan Manager") clients. Samba uses NetBIOS over
TCP/IP (NetBT) protocols and does NOT need the NetBEUI (Microsoft Raw
NetBIOS frame) protocol.
Update Information:
This update closes two security holes: CAN-2004-0882 and CAN-2004-0930
* Thu Nov 11 2004 Jay Fenlason <fenlason@redhat.com> 3.0.8-2.FC2
- Upgrade to 3.0.9 to fix CAN-2004-0930 and CAN-2004-0882
- Include the -smbmnt patch from Steven Lawrance (slawrance@yahoo.com)
that modifies smbmnt to work with 32-bit uids. This closes #134570
- Include my -changetrustpw patch that closes #134694
- rework this spec file to replace %{initdir} with /etc/rc.d/init.d
- Add "/sbin/ldconfig -n $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib/" to this spec file
to create libsmbclient.so.0 so it gets owned by the correct package.
- Clean up whitespace in this spec file
- Update docs section to not carryover the docs/manpages directory
This moved many files from /usr/share/doc/samba-*/docs/* to
/usr/share/doc/samba-*/*
- Move {lowcase,upcase,valid}.dat to the -common package.
