= Samba 4 Uninstallation = |
|||
I've completed also some work to fix up the uninstallation in SAMBA 4. So it should be possible to remove cleanly binaries, headers, libraries etc.. |
|||
I haven't provided a repository for this, so I link to the patch: [https://bugzilla.samba.org/attachment.cgi?id=3567&action=view here] |
|||
It comprehends: |
|||
* Makefile: Fix up variable names and remove most of the installation/uninstallation targets |
|||
* templates.mk: Add here most of the installation/uninstallation targets and handle the uninstallation completely there. |
|||
* Conclusion: The installation scripts under "source/script" are needed as before, but the uninstallation ones aren't anymore. |
|||
* Unused targets like "swat2" are removed. |
|||
Annotation: This [https://bugzilla.samba.org/attachment.cgi?id=3552 patch] (installlib.sh) is needed to fix up the library installation. It should be applied before the first one. |
|||
= Registry = |
|||
Over the summer 2008 I've improved and fixed up the registry backend of SAMBA 4. Here a short overview of what I did: |
|||
== Registry client == |
|||
GIT repository: git://repo.or.cz/Samba/mdw.git Branch: "v4-0-regClient" - [http://repo.or.cz/w/Samba/mdw.git?a=log;h=refs/heads/v4-0-regClient GITWEB] |
|||
Main issues: |
|||
* Major fixes in the RPC client (tries to be compatible with the Windows Registry client libs) |
|||
* Improvements and fixups in the patchfile library |
|||
* Some enhancements in "regshell" |
|||
* Fixup's in two torture tests related to the registry |
|||
== Registry server == |
|||
GIT repository: git://repo.or.cz/Samba/mdw.git Branch: "v4-0-regServer" - [http://repo.or.cz/w/Samba/mdw.git?a=log;h=refs/heads/v4-0-regServer GITWEB] |
|||
Main fixups: |
|||
* Compatibility with Windows Registry Editor (regedit) - in my case Windows 2000 - and SAMBA 4 Registry client library |
|||
* Support empty values of REG_SZ (string) type (LDB backend) |
|||
* Introduce REG_BINARY type variables (LDB backend) |
|||
* Introduce the default attribute (LDB backend) |
|||
=== Feedback === |
|||
* Maybe left to do: torture tests |
