--- Begin Message ---Package: samba Version: 2:4.2.10+dfsg-0+deb8u1 Severity: normal File: /usr/share/doc/samba/NEWS.Debian.gz Hi, The NEWS file states: Finally, two important configuration options should be considered, that we were unable to silently change defaults for: - smb signing = required - ntlm auth = no However smb signing is not a recognised parameter: .../lib/param/loadparm.c:743(lpcfg_map_parameter) Unknown parameter encountered: "smb signing" Searching through SMB.CONF(5), it appears the intended parameter is: client signing = mandatory Is this correct? According to the NEWS file this option has security implications, so should be considered important.
