and unmount.cifs. CIFS mounts no longer become unmountable when performing quick mounting and
unmounting of the filesystem.
* kdebase conflicted with Samba 3. Samba 2 components libsmbclient and libsmbclient-devel are
now available as independent rpms and can be installed alongside Samba 3. By separating out these
packages it allows for kdebase to reference its dependencies independent of a Samba installation,
correcting the conflict.
Users of Samba should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve these issues.

1.183.1. RHBA-2010:0301: bug fix update
Updated samba3x packages that contain various bug fixes are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 5.
Samba is a suite of programs used to share files, printers and other information between machines.
These packages contain fixes for the following bugs:
* the upstream Samba version in the samba3x packages distributed with the RHEA-2009:1399 update
contained broken implementations of the Netlogon credential chain and SAMR access checks security
subsystems. This prevented Samba from acting as a domain controller: Client systems could not
join the domain; users could not authenticate; and systems could not access the user and group list.

* to modify the access control list for a file, WRITE_DAC and WRITE_OWNER access must be
requested when the file is opened. When dos_filemode was enabled, these requests were not sent,
so the access control list for a writeable file could not be changed. WRITE_DAC and WRITE_OWNER
access are now requested when dos_filemode is enabled, so the access control list can be modified.

(BZ#537165
)
* samba3x was previously available only for AMD64 and Intel 64 architectures. It is now available
for Itanium, PowerPC, IBM System z, x86, AMD64 and Intel 64 server and client variants.

(BZ#547715
)
* cifs.upcall could not determine the KRB5CCNAME environment variable, so it could not locate
a Kerberos credential cache with a non-default name. This caused a 'required key not available'
error when attempting to mount a Common Internet File System (CIFS) share. cifs.upcall now scans
the /tmp directory for credential caches with non-default names, enabling users authenticated via
pam_krb5 to use their tickets to mount CIFS.
* samba3x was previously only available as a technology preview for AMD64 and Intel 64
architectures. It is now supported for Itanium, PowerPC, IBM System z, x86, AMD64 and Intel 64
server and client variants.
