Description

Samba4 is an attempt to implement an Active Directory compatible Domain Controller.

In short, you can join a WinNT, Win2000, WinXP or Win 2003 - 2016 member server to a Samba4 domain, and it will behave much as it does in AD, including Kerberos domain logins where applicable.

Install

Binary package:

pkg install samba425

From the ports tree:

cd /usr/ports/net/samba425/ && make install clean

To depend on this port in another port's Makefile:

RUN_DEPENDS=	samba425>0:net/samba425

Message after installing

How to start: http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO

* Your configuration is: /usr/local/etc/smb4.conf

* All the relevant databases are under: /var/db/samba4

* All the logs are under: /var/log/samba4

* Provisioning script is: /usr/local/bin/samba-tool

For the working DNS updates you will need to either build dns/bind9*
with the enabled GSSAPI(GSSAPI_MIT5 is recommended) or install
dns/samba-nsupdate package, which is preconfigured with such a support.

You will need to specify location of the 'nsupdate' command in the
smb4.conf file:

    nsupdate command = /usr/local/bin/samba-nsupdate -g

For additional documentation check: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/User_Documentation

databases/lmdb: allow to install both 0.x and 1.x together

LMDB 1.0 and the legacy 0.9 ABI cannot be mixed, the datanase format are incompatibles as well. Rename or relocate everything databases/lmdb0 installs so that it no longer overlaps with databases/lmdb: - the utilities are now mdb_copy0, mdb_dump0, mdb_load0 and mdb_stat0 - the header is include/lmdb0/lmdb.h - the linker name is liblmdb0.so, the shared object keeps its ABI name liblmdb.so.0 so already linked programs are unaffected - the pkg-config file is lmdb0.pc A compatibility prefix holding the previous layout is also installed under ${PREFIX}/lmdb0/ (include/, lib/ and libdata/pkgconfig/) so that build systems which expect to find lmdb.h and -llmdb relative to a single directory only need a path change. Now all ports should migrate to lmdb 1.X and use the lmdb 0.9 port to ease …

net/samba425: avoid SIGFPE in streams_xattr_get_ea_value_fsp

As reported in https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16278, upstream commit 5fa43440ebd3 ("vfs: Implement larger streams in multiple xattrs"), results in many signal 8 (SIGFPE) crashes in smbd child processes on FreeBSD, if the streams_xattr vfs module is loaded. This is because streams_xattr_get_ea_value_fsp() can divide by zero, if the "max xattrs per stream" is left at its default value. Apply the upstream fix to avoid the crashes.

net/samba425: restore missing get_quota vfstest command (cmd_vfs.c)

The combined patch adding a "get_quota" command to vfstest (present identically in net/samba419, 420, 422, 423, and 424) touches two files: source3/torture/cmd_vfs.c (the command implementation and its vfs_commands[] registration) and source3/torture/wscript_build (installs vfstest instead of building it selftest-only). Only the wscript_build half survived into samba425 — the cmd_vfs.c half was dropped. Restored patch-source3_torture_cmd__vfs.c, adapted (not just copied verbatim) to the real samba-4.25.0 upstream API: SMB_VFS_GET_QUOTA() dropped its explicit conn parameter and now takes an fsp directly, and the file resolution pattern changed from synthetic_smb_fname() to synthetic_pathref()+smb_fname->fsp (mirroring the sibling …
