Support for SMB3
Last modified: 2015-11-17 12:12:09 CET
Samba supports multiple versions of the SMB protocol for communicating with clients. With UCS 3.2, SMB2 is officially supported. The latest version, SMB3, can be activated by setting the UCR variable "samba/max/protocol" to "smb3" but it's not officially supported by UCS, yet.

It is documented and configurable in UCS 3.2: http://docs.univention.de/manual-3.2.html#windows:fileservices What is the purpose/intention of this bug? Bumping the max protocol level by default?
Ok, I adjusted univention-samba and univention-samba4 to not set this variable any longer for new installations. That way the samba default described in man smb.conf applies. I adjusted the UCR variable documentation accordingly, which falsely stated that NT1 applies in that case. For update installations the UCS variable es checked and if it's still set to the UCS 3.2 default "SMB2", then it gets unset as well. The UCS 3.2 default was implemented at that time to avoid surprises with the pretty new protocol variations. I assume that they have stabilized by now. UCS 4.1-0 changelog adjusted.
OK - changelog OK - univention-samba, univention-samba4 - no UCS default for samba/max/protocol OK - unset during update OK - samba/max/protocol description
