RHBA-2018:0332 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An update for SMB is now available for Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.3.1 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

Samba is an open-source implementation of the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol and the related Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocol, which allows PC-compatible machines to share files, printers, and various information.

The following packages are upgraded to a later upstream version: samba
(4.7.3), libtdb (1.3.15). (BZ#1541920)

This update adds the following enhancement:

The Samba version of Red Hat Gluster Storage is updated so that it is not overwritten by the Samba version at a later Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. Installing this update either prior to or along with the Red Hat Enterprise Linux update ensures continued functionality of the SMB features of the Red Hat Gluster Storage installation.

Users of Samba with Red Hat Gluster Storage are advised to upgrade to
this updated package.
