Alan and/or Arran, any thoughts on merging this? I think the main thing to sort out is probably the config syntax, unless there's some other way you'd prefer it done?
I’ll take a look. But I’m inclined to merge it into 3.1. I’d like to leave the changes to 3.0 as small as possible.
FWIW, I finished the Samba patch over the weekend so they have that for review. I'm expecting I've done something not quite right, but hopefully it'll be mostly acceptable. Just not sure what timescales Samba work to and whether it will be able to hit 4.2 or have to wait for 4.3, which I guess could be a while off.
Probably.
Going forward, all the password-change stuff is in libwbclient as well, so it looks like ntlm_auth could be ditched entirely, but again needs the libwbclient Samba patch to be thread-safe.
OK. Alan DeKok.
