Samba 3.0 and 3.3. They were completely broken before this.
Bump PKGREVISION for both samba and samba33.
Fix from PR pkg/38961 by Makoto Fujiwara <makoto at ki dot nu>.
This is a security release in order to address CVE-2009-2813, CVE-2009-2948
and CVE-2009-2906.
Please note that Samba 3.0 is not maintained any longer. This security
release is shipped on a voluntary basis.
o CVE-2009-2813:
In all versions of Samba later than 3.0.11, connecting to the home
share of a user will use the root of the filesystem
as the home directory if this user is misconfigured to have
an empty home directory in /etc/passwd.
o CVE-2009-2948:
If mount.cifs is installed as a setuid program, a user can pass it a
credential or password path to which he or she does not have access and
then use the --verbose option to view the first line of that file.
o CVE-2009-2906:
Specially crafted SMB requests on authenticated SMB connections can
send smbd into a 100% CPU loop, causing a DoS on the Samba server.
Please note, that the 3.0 series will be DISCONTINUED after this release!
There will be neither any bugfix release nor any security release. Updating
to the latest release series is strongly recommended. For more information
on current Samba releases, please see
Major enhancements included in Samba 3.0.36 are:
o Fix Winbind crash on 'getent group' (bug #5906).
o Excel save operation corrupts file ACLs (bug #4308).
o Prevent segmentation fault on joining a very long domain name.
- CVE-2009-1888:
In Samba 3.0.31 to 3.3.5 (inclusive), an uninitialized read of a
data value can potentially affect access control when "dos filemode"
is set to "yes".
This security fix has already been integrated into "pkggsrc" via a patch
previously. The package was only updated to make future maintenance easier.

bump PKGREVISION
- Fix update of machine account passwords.
- Fix SMB signing issue on Windows Vista with MS Hotfix KB955302.
- Fix Winbind crashes.
- Correctly detect if the current dc is the closest one.
- Add saf_join_store() function to memorize the dc used at join time.
This avoids problems caused by replication delays shortly after
domain joins.
- Fix write list in setups using "security = share".
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
AIX method was being chosen in preference (on NetBSD 5.0 at least). This
broke net and rpcclient, etc. as they failed to enumerate interfaces
correctly.

CHANGES FOR PKGSRC:
==================
Makefile:
+ Modify section that manually handles the ELF symlinks for samba
shared libraries -- add additional libraries that are built (addns,
smbsharemodes) and reorganize so we don't need two loops where one
will do.
+ Pass --with-included-popt to the configure script to force using
the popt distribution included with samba to avoid any library
mismatch errors between samba and any installed popt. This fixes
PR pkg/34444 by Jason Lingohr.
+ Don't build the smbmount programs on Linux -- they're deprecated in
favor of the mount.cifs programs.
+ Remove some pkgviews-related settings -- I'm not supporting pkgviews
installation of samba.
Makefile.patches:
+ Empty out PATCHFILES because we are updating to the latest release
of samba, which has all previous patches for security advisories
already rolled into the main sources.
Makefile.mirrors:
+ Update SAMBA_MIRRORS in Makefile.mirrors to the latest list of FTP
mirrors.
options.mk:
+ Only show the ``acl'' option on platforms that actually support
POSIX ACLs.
+ Add a new ``fam'' option to enable building the notify_fam VFS
module.
patch-ab, patch-ax:
+ Remove patch-ab and update patch-ax -- there's nothing for the
scripts to back up so we don't need to patch the install* scripts
to avoid this.
patch-ae, patch-ah:
+ Update patch-ae and remove patch-ah -- we should definitely check
that PAM_AUTHTOK_RECOVERY_ERR is defined before using its value to
define PAM_AUTHTOK_RECOVER_ERR.
patch-at, patch-au:
+ Fix patch-at and patch-au -- in configure.in, we need to "escape"
left and right brackets or else m4 will strip them away in the
resulting configure script. This should fix the detection of FreeBSD
and NetBSD systems capable of using nss_winbind noted in PR pkg/38076
by Ingo Meyer.
patch-ay:
+ Remove some unnecessary changes -- we can safely just do "mkdir" in
some places because we know the parent and any intermediate directories
exist.
patch-be:
+ Fix a bug in locating WINS_LIST -- nmbd/nmbd_winsserver.c was
referring to WINS_LIST under the state directory in one place and
under the lock directory in another; change all references to be
under the state directory.
patch-db:
+ Add patch to fix the build of samba on older BSDs. Patch supplied
in PR pkg/37487 by John Frear.
All remaining changes to patches/patch-* are simply to remove fuzz.
MAJOR CHANGES FROM VERSION 3.0.26a:
* Fix failure to join Windows 2008 domains.
* Fix Windows Vista (including SP1 RC) inter-op issues.
* Add a new ``administrative share'' service parameter for defining
hidden shares that cannot be managed from Windows.
* Fix for CVS-2007-6015 (already fixed in 3.0.26anb4 in pkgsrc).
* Fix for CVS-2007-5398 (already fixed in 3.0.26anb4 in pkgsrc).
* Fix for CVS-2007-4572 (already fixed in 3.0.26anb4 in pkgsrc). Also
subsequent fix for regression experienced by smbfs clients caused by
the fix for CVS-2007-4572, noted in PR pkg/38300 by Dave Barnes.
* Many other bugs fixed and memory leaks plugged.
