and 5.6.1nb10 include pulling in changes from the latest Perl sources
that add a more complete set of directories on NetBSD systems to the
rpath of Perl modules so that they may find libperl.so. The module
build/installation is now robust against the user overriding the value
of INSTALLARCHLIB.
* Building and installing the PAM modules if USE_PAM is defined.
* Installing the NSS loadable modules.
* Making the samba rc.d script run the winbindd script, too.
* Active Directory support. Samba is able to join a ADS realm as
a member server and authenticate using LDAP/Kerberos.
* Unicode support.
* New, more flexible authentication (passdb) system.
* A new "net" command that is similar to the "net" command in Windows.
* Samba now negotiates NT-style status32 codes on the wire, which
greatly improves error handling.
* Better Windows 2K/2K3/XP printing support.
* Loadable module support for passdb backends and character sets.
* More performant winbindd.
* Support for migrating from a Windows NT4 domain to a Samba domain
and maintaining user, group, and domain SIDs.
* Support for establishing trust relationships with Windows NT4 DCs.
* Initial support for a distributed Winbind architecture using an
LDAP directory for storing SID-to-uid/gid mappings.
* Major updates to the Samba documentation tree.
* Full support for client and server SMB signing to ensure
compatibility with default Windows 2K3 security settings.
* Improvement of ACL mapping features.
Heimdal is a free implementation of Kerberos 5.
Kerberos is a system for authenticating users and services on a network.
It is built upon the assumption that the network is "unsafe". Kerberos
is a trusted third-party service. That means that there is a third
party (the Kerberos server) that is trusted by all the entities on the
network (users and services, usually called "principals"). All
principals share a secret password (or key) with the Kerberos server and
this enables principals to verify that the messages from the Kerberos
server are authentic. Thus trusting the Kerberos server, users and
services can authenticate each other.
Bug fixes:
- The HTTP code did not use a case-insensitive
comparison when checking for the Basic authentication
method (STR #407)
- The cupsaddsmb program didn't export the new CUPS
driver for Windows properly (STR #390)
- The default landscape orientation was not the same as
that defined in the PPD file (STR #397)
- The pdftops filter incorrectly auto-rotated pages when
the user already had specified the proper orientation
(STR #207)
- The scheduler did not reset the group list when
running CGI and filter processes (STR #185)
Enhancements:
- Updated the pdftops filter to use the annotation flags
instead of the subtype to determine whether to print
an annotation (STR #425)
- The pdftops filter no longer needs to create temporary
files with tmpnam (STR #406)
- The scheduler now waits up to 60 seconds before
restarting to allow active jobs to complete printing
and pending requests to be processed (STR #226)
- Added new cupsDoAuthentication(), cupsGetFd(),
cupsGetFile(), cupsPutFd(), and cupsPutFile() functions
to the CUPS API (STR #112)
- The PDF filter always scaled and offset pages; this
caused problems under MacOS X, so now the "fitplot"
option controls whether PDF files are scaled to fit
within the printable area of the page (STR #250)
- Updated the pdftops filter to be based upon Xpdf
2.02pl1 (STR #191)
saslauthd is a daemon process that handles plaintext authentication
requests on behalf of the Cyrus SASL library. It may be compiled to
support authentication using getpwent, PAM, or an LDAP database.
splitting out the saslauthd daemon into a separate package,
security/cyrus-saslauthd. This allows the saslauthd daemon to
support additional database backends for plaintext authentication
without adding unrelated dependencies to the cyrus-sasl2 package.
provide automatic generation of software visualizations for the purpose of
improving the comprehensibility of software. jGRASP is implemented in Java,
and runs on all platforms with a Java Virtual Machine (Java version 1.3 or
higher).
DarkIce is an IceCast, IceCast2 and ShoutCast live audio streamer. It takes
audio input from a sound card, encodes it into mp3 and/or Ogg Vorbis, and sends
the streams to one or more IceCast, ShoutCast and/or IceCast2 servers. DarkIce
uses lame as a shared object as its mp3 encoder, and the Ogg Vorbis libs as its
Ogg Vorbis encoder.
