= Samba 4 Uninstallation and other improvements = |
|||
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 bug: [https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5742 here] |
|||
It comprehends: |
|||
* Makefile: Fix up variable names and targets, add new uninstallation commands instead of the scripts |
|||
* Conclusion: The installation scripts under "source/script" are needed as before, but the uninstallation ones aren't anymore. |
|||
= Samba 4 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 |
