Public bug reported: Please remove gadmin-samba from the archive.
Reasons: a) upstream url from d/control is gone: http://www.gadmintools.org/ b) hasn't been updated in years: $ rmadison gadmin-samba gadmin-samba | 0.3.2-0ubuntu1 | precise/universe | source, amd64, armel, armhf, i386, powerpc gadmin-samba | 0.3.2-0ubuntu1 | trusty/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, powerpc, ppc64el gadmin-samba | 0.3.2-0ubuntu1 | xenial/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, powerpc, ppc64el, s390x gadmin-samba | 0.3.2-0ubuntu2 | bionic/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, ppc64el, s390x gadmin-samba | 0.3.2-0ubuntu2 | cosmic/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, ppc64el, s390x gadmin-samba | 0.3.2-0ubuntu2 | disco/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, ppc64el, s390x gadmin-samba | 0.3.2-0ubuntu2 | eoan/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, ppc64el, s390x c) it generates incorrect configuration for modern samba. Here is the result of testparm on disco right after having run gadmin-samba: andreas@disco-desktop:~$ testparm WARNING: The "null passwords" option is deprecated Unknown parameter encountered: "password level" Ignoring unknown parameter "password level" WARNING: The "client schannel" option is deprecated WARNING: The "server schannel" option is deprecated Unknown parameter encountered: "update encrypted" Ignoring unknown parameter "update encrypted" WARNING: The "idmap uid" option is deprecated WARNING: The "idmap gid" option is deprecated Unknown parameter encountered: "winbind trusted domains only" Ignoring unknown parameter "winbind trusted domains only" Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf WARNING: The "null passwords" option is deprecated Unknown parameter encountered: "password level" Ignoring unknown parameter "password level" WARNING: The "client schannel" option is deprecated WARNING: The "server schannel" option is deprecated Unknown parameter encountered: "update encrypted" Ignoring unknown parameter "update encrypted" WARNING: The "idmap uid" option is deprecated WARNING: The "idmap gid" option is deprecated Unknown parameter encountered: "winbind trusted domains only" Ignoring unknown parameter "winbind trusted domains only" Loaded services file OK. WARNING: socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 This warning is printed because you set one of the following options: SO_SNDBUF, SO_RCVBUF, SO_SNDLOWAT, SO_RCVLOWAT Modern server operating systems are tuned for high network performance in the majority of situations; when you set 'socket options' you are overriding those settings. Linux in particular has an auto-tuning mechanism for buffer sizes (SO_SNDBUF, SO_RCVBUF) that will be disabled if you specify a socket buffer size. This can potentially cripple your TCP/IP stack. Getting the 'socket options' correct can make a big difference to your performance, but getting them wrong can degrade it by just as much. As with any other low level setting, if you must make changes to it, make small changes and test the effect before making any large changes. d) the GUI itself shows errors (see attached screenshot) e) google search found no other places where this might have moved to. github search only shows two results, both just packaging repositories and several years old (https://github.com/search?q=gadmin-samba&ref=opensearch) ** Affects: gadmin-samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "gadmin-samba-disco.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1826458/+attachment/5259105/+files/gadmin-samba-disco.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1826458 Title: Remove gadmin-samba from the archive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gadmin-samba/+bug/1826458/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
