As far as I can tell, this does not appear to be a -security or -updates regression. I have run the qa-regression-testing test-samba.py script with and without both 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4 and 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.4, and both 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4 and 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.4 fail the same tests with winbind installed. Both the security update packages and the unpatched hardy release packages fail the tests with:
====================================================================== FAIL: (SambaUser) Read user share directory contents ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "./test-samba.py", line 533, in test_user_dir_readable password=self.user.password) File "./test-samba.py", line 213, in _smbdir return self._smbcmd(mount,cmd,exitcode,user,password) File "./test-samba.py", line 177, in _smbcmd self.assertEquals(exitcode, rc, result + report) AssertionError: Got exit code 1, expected 0 Command: smbclient -U ToeCnDaC -c cd unreadable;dir //localhost/forcedgroup fEOOPPnS Domain=[HARDY-I386-SEC] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.28a] tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED ====================================================================== FAIL: (SambaUser) Write user share remote file contents ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "./test-samba.py", line 560, in test_user_file_write report) AssertionError: Should not be able to write file: Domain=[HARDY-I386-SEC] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.28a] tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 2 tests in 37.700s FAILED (failures=2) While winbind is intended for use with a DC, it seems clear that its installation should not break an existing samba installation. Interestingly, removing winbind and installing likewise-open (which uses a patched winbind codebase) passes all tests. ** Summary changed: - Samba shares aren't working anymore due to nasty winbind security update, Ubuntu 8.04. + Samba shares don't always work with winbind installed (8.04) -- Samba shares don't always work with winbind installed (8.04) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/244411 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
