-><P
->Network packets that are sent over the physical network transport
-layer communicate not via IP addresses but rather using the Media
-Access Control address, or MAC address. IP Addresses are currently
-32 bits in length and are typically presented as four (4) decimal
-numbers that are separated by a dot (or period). eg: 168.192.1.1</P

->MAC Addresses use 48 bits (or 6 bytes) and are typically represented
-as two digit hexadecimal numbers separated by colons. eg:
-40:8e:0a:12:34:56</P
-><P
->Every network interfrace must have an MAC address. Associated with
-a MAC address there may be one or more IP addresses. There is NO
-relationship between an IP address and a MAC address, all such assignments
-are arbitary or discretionary in nature. At the most basic level all
-network communications takes place using MAC addressing. Since MAC
-addresses must be globally unique, and generally remains fixed for
-any particular interface, the assignment of an IP address makes sense
-from a network management perspective. More than one IP address can
-be assigned per MAC address. One address must be the primary IP address,
-this is the address that will be returned in the ARP reply.</P
-><P
->When a user or a process wants to communicate with another machine
-the protocol implementation ensures that the "machine name" or "host
-name" is resolved to an IP address in a manner that is controlled
-by the TCP/IP configuration control files. The file
-<TT
-CLASS="FILENAME"
->/etc/hosts</TT
-> is one such file.</P
-><P
->When the IP address of the destination interface has been
-determined a protocol called ARP/RARP isused to identify
-the MAC address of the target interface. ARP stands for Address
-Resolution Protocol, and is a broadcast oriented method that
-uses UDP (User Datagram Protocol) to send a request to all
-interfaces on the local network segment using the all 1's MAC
-address. Network interfaces are programmed to respond to two
-MAC addresses only; their own unique address and the address
-ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff. The reply packet from an ARP request will
-contain the MAC address and the primary IP address for each
-interface.</P
-><P
->The <TT
-CLASS="FILENAME"
->/etc/hosts</TT
-> file is foundational to all
-Unix/Linux TCP/IP installations and as a minumum will contain
-the localhost and local network interface IP addresses and the
-primary names by which they are known within the local machine.
-This file helps to prime the pump so that a basic level of name
-resolution can exist before any other method of name resolution

->MS Windows networking is predicated about the name each machine

-the "computer name", "machine name", "networking name", "netbios name",
-"SMB name". All terms mean the same thing with the exception of
-"netbios name" which can apply also to the name of the workgroup or the
-domain name. The terms "workgroup" and "domain" are really just a
-simply name with which the machine is associated. All NetBIOS names
-are exactly 16 characters in length. The 16th character is reserved.
-It is used to store a one byte value that indicates service level
-information for the NetBIOS name that is registered. A NetBIOS machine

-><P
->One further point of clarification should be noted, the <TT
-CLASS="FILENAME"
->/etc/hosts</TT
->
-file and the DNS records do not provide the NetBIOS name type information
-that MS Windows clients depend on to locate the type of service that may
-be needed. An example of this is what happens when an MS Windows client
-wants to locate a domain logon server. It find this service and the IP
-address of a server that provides it by performing a lookup (via a
-NetBIOS broadcast) for enumeration of all machines that have
-registered the name type *&#60;1c&#62;. A logon request is then sent to each
-IP address that is returned in the enumerated list of IP addresses. Which
-ever machine first replies then ends up providing the logon services.</P
-><P
->The name "workgroup" or "domain" really can be confusing since these
-have the added significance of indicating what is the security
-architecture of the MS Windows network. The term "workgroup" indicates
-that the primary nature of the network environment is that of a
-peer-to-peer design. In a WORKGROUP all machines are responsible for
-their own security, and generally such security is limited to use of
-just a password (known as SHARE MORE security). In most situations
-with peer-to-peer networking the users who control their own machines
-will simply opt to have no security at all. It is possible to have
-USER MODE security in a WORKGROUP environment, thus requiring use
-of a user name and a matching password.</P
-><P
->MS Windows networking is thus predetermined to use machine names
-for all local and remote machine message passing. The protocol used is
-called Server Message Block (SMB) and this is implemented using
-the NetBIOS protocol (Network Basic Input Output System). NetBIOS can
-be encapsulated using LLC (Logical Link Control) protocol - in which case
-the resulting protocol is called NetBEUI (Network Basic Extended User
-Interface). NetBIOS can also be run over IPX (Internetworking Packet
-Exchange) protocol as used by Novell NetWare, and it can be run
-over TCP/IP protocols - in which case the resulting protocol is called
-NBT or NetBT, the NetBIOS over TCP/IP.</P

- # software to seek the specified &#60;filename&#62; and parse it as if it were
- # local. &#60;filename&#62; is generally a UNC-based name, allowing a
- # centralized lmhosts file to be maintained on a server.
- # It is ALWAYS necessary to provide a mapping for the IP address of the
- # server prior to the #INCLUDE. This mapping must use the #PRE directive.
- # In addtion the share "public" in the example below must be in the
- # LanManServer list of "NullSessionShares" in order for client machines to
- # be able to read the lmhosts file successfully. This key is under
- # \machine\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters\nullsessionshares
- # in the registry. Simply add "public" to the list found there.
- #
- # The #BEGIN_ and #END_ALTERNATE keywords allow multiple #INCLUDE
- # statements to be grouped together. Any single successful include
- # will cause the group to succeed.
- #
- # Finally, non-printing characters can be embedded in mappings by
- # first surrounding the NetBIOS name in quotations, then using the
- # \0xnn notation to specify a hex value for a non-printing character.
- #
- # The following example illustrates all of these extensions:
- #
- # 102.54.94.97 rhino #PRE #DOM:networking #net group's DC
- # 102.54.94.102 "appname \0x14" #special app server
- # 102.54.94.123 popular #PRE #source server
- # 102.54.94.117 localsrv #PRE #needed for the include
- #
- # #BEGIN_ALTERNATE
- # #INCLUDE \\localsrv\public\lmhosts
- # #INCLUDE \\rhino\public\lmhosts
- # #END_ALTERNATE
- #
- # In the above example, the "appname" server contains a special
- # character in its name, the "popular" and "localsrv" server names are
- # preloaded, and the "rhino" server name is specified so it can be used
- # to later #INCLUDE a centrally maintained lmhosts file if the "localsrv"
- # system is unavailable.
- #
- # Note that the whole file is parsed including comments on each lookup,
- # so keeping the number of comments to a minimum will improve performance.
- # Therefore it is not advisable to simply add lmhosts file entries onto the
- # end of this file.</PRE

->As stated above, MS Windows machines register their NetBIOS names
-(ie: the machine name for each service type in operation) on start

-has been given a WINS server address, whether or not LMHOSTS lookup
-is enabled, or if DNS for NetBIOS name resolution is enabled, etc.</P
-><P
->In the case where there is no WINS server all name registrations as
-well as name lookups are done by UDP broadcast. This isolates name
-resolution to the local subnet, unless LMHOSTS is used to list all
-names and IP addresses. In such situations Samba provides a means by
-which the samba server name may be forcibly injected into the browse
-list of a remote MS Windows network (using the "remote announce" parameter).</P
-><P
->Where a WINS server is used, the MS Windows client will use UDP
-unicast to register with the WINS server. Such packets can be routed
-and thus WINS allows name resolution to function across routed networks.</P
-><P
->During the startup process an election will take place to create a
-local master browser if one does not already exist. On each NetBIOS network
-one machine will be elected to function as the domain master browser. This
-domain browsing has nothing to do with MS security domain control.
-Instead, the domain master browser serves the role of contacting each local
-master browser (found by asking WINS or from LMHOSTS) and exchanging browse
-list contents. This way every master browser will eventually obtain a complete
-list of all machines that are on the network. Every 11-15 minutes an election
-is held to determine which machine will be the master browser. By nature of
-the election criteria used, the machine with the highest uptime, or the
-most senior protocol version, or other criteria, will win the election
-as domain master browser.</P
-><P
->Clients wishing to browse the network make use of this list, but also depend
-on the availability of correct name resolution to the respective IP
-address/addresses. </P
-><P
->Any configuration that breaks name resolution and/or browsing intrinsics
-will annoy users because they will have to put up with protracted
-inability to use the network services.</P
-><P
->Samba supports a feature that allows forced synchonisation
-of browse lists across routed networks using the "remote
-browse sync" parameter in the smb.conf file. This causes Samba
-to contact the local master browser on a remote network and
-to request browse list synchronisation. This effectively bridges
-two networks that are separated by routers. The two remote
-networks may use either broadcast based name resolution or WINS
-based name resolution, but it should be noted that the "remote
-browse sync" parameter provides browse list synchronisation - and
-that is distinct from name to address resolution, in other
-words, for cross subnet browsing to function correctly it is
-essential that a name to address resolution mechanism be provided.

->MS Windows clients may use encrypted passwords alone, or encrypted
-as well as plain text passwords in the authentication process. It
-should be realized that with the SMB protocol the password is passed

-><P
->When Microsoft changed the default password mode, they dropped support for

->The following section contains much of the original
-DOMAIN.txt file previously included with Samba. Much of
-the material is based on what went into the book Special
-Edition, Using Samba. (Richard Sharpe)</P
-></BLOCKQUOTE

-><P
->A domain and a workgroup are exactly the same thing in terms of network
-browsing. The difference is that a distributable authentication
-database is associated with a domain, for secure login access to a
-network. Also, different access rights can be granted to users if they
-successfully authenticate against a domain logon server (NT server and
-other systems based on NT server support this, as does at least Samba TNG now).</P
-><P
->The SMB client logging on to a domain has an expectation that every other
-server in the domain should accept the same authentication information.
-Network browsing functionality of domains and workgroups is
-identical and is explained in BROWSING.txt. It should be noted, that browsing
-is total orthogonal to logon support.</P
-><P
->Issues related to the single-logon network model are discussed in this
-document. Samba supports domain logons, network logon scripts, and user
-profiles for MS Windows for workgroups and MS Windows 9X clients.</P
-><P
->When an SMB client in a domain wishes to logon it broadcast requests for a
-logon server. The first one to reply gets the job, and validates its
-password using whatever mechanism the Samba administrator has installed.
-It is possible (but very stupid) to create a domain where the user
-database is not shared between servers, ie they are effectively workgroup
-servers advertising themselves as participating in a domain. This
-demonstrates how authentication is quite different from but closely
-involved with domains.</P
-><P
->Another thing commonly associated with single-logon domains is remote
-administration over the SMB protocol. Again, there is no reason why this
-cannot be implemented with an underlying username database which is
-different from the Windows NT SAM. Support for the Remote Administration
-Protocol is planned for a future release of Samba.</P
-><P
->Network logon support as discussed in this section is aimed at Window for
-Workgroups, and Windows 9X clients. </P
-><P
->Support for profiles is confirmed as working for Win95, NT 4.0 and NT 3.51.
-It is possible to specify: the profile location; script file to be loaded
-on login; the user's home directory; and for NT a kick-off time could also
-now easily be supported. However, there are some differences between Win9X
-profile support and WinNT profile support. These are discussed below.</P
-><P
->With NT Workstations, all this does not require the use or intervention of
-an NT 4.0 or NT 3.51 server: Samba can now replace the logon services
-provided by an NT server, to a limited and experimental degree (for example,
-running "User Manager for Domains" will not provide you with access to
-a domain created by a Samba Server).</P
-><P
->With Win95, the help of an NT server can be enlisted, both for profile storage
-and for user authentication. For details on user authentication, see
-security_level.txt. For details on profile storage, see below.</P
-><P
->Using these features you can make your clients verify their logon via
-the Samba server; make clients run a batch file when they logon to
-the network and download their preferences, desktop and start menu.</P
-><P
->Before launching into the configuration instructions, it is worthwhile looking
-at how a Win9X client performs a logon:</P

- contains the NetBIOS name of the logon server to use in the format of
- \\SERVER.

->There are a few comments to make in order to tie up some
-loose ends. There has been much debate over the issue of whether
-or not it is ok to configure Samba as a Domain Controller in security
-modes other than <TT
-CLASS="CONSTANT"
->USER</TT
->. The only security mode
-which will not work due to technical reasons is <TT
-CLASS="CONSTANT"
->SHARE</TT
->
-mode security. <TT
-CLASS="CONSTANT"
->DOMAIN</TT
-> and <TT
-CLASS="CONSTANT"
->SERVER</TT
->
-mode security is really just a variation on SMB user level security.</P
-><P
->Actually, this issue is also closer tied to the debate on whether
-or not Samba must be the domain master browser for its workgroup
-when operating as a DC. While it may technically be possible
-to configure a server as such (after all, browsing and domain logons
-are two distinctly different functions), it is not a good idea to
-so. You should remember that the DC must register the DOMAIN#1b netbios
-name. This is the name used by Windows clients to locate the DC.
-Windows clients do not distinguish between the DC and the DMB.
-For this reason, it is very wise to configure the Samba DC as the DMB.</P
-><P
->Now back to the issue of configuring a Samba DC to use a mode other
-than "security = user". If a Samba host is configured to use
-another SMB server or DC in order to validate user connection
-requests, then it is a fact that some other machine on the network
-(the "password server") knows more about user than the Samba host.
-99% of the time, this other host is a domain controller. Now
-in order to operate in domain mode security, the "workgroup" parameter
-must be set to the name of the Windows NT domain (which already
-has a domain controller, right?)</P
-><P
->Therefore configuring a Samba box as a DC for a domain that
-already by definition has a PDC is asking for trouble.
-Therefore, you should always configure the Samba DC to be the DMB
-for its domain.</P
