UPGRADING
NEW FEATURES/CHANGES
====================
-Default samba process model
----------------------------
-The default for the --model argument passed to the samba executable has changed
-from 'standard' to 'prefork'. This means a difference in the number of samba
-child processes that are created to handle client connections. The previous
-default would create a separate process for every LDAP or NETLOGON client
-connection. For a network with a lot of persistent client connections, this
-could result in significant memory overhead. Now, with the new default of
-'prefork', the LDAP, NETLOGON, and KDC services will create a fixed number of
-worker processes at startup and share the client connections amongst these
-workers. The number of worker processes can be configured by the 'prefork
-children' setting in the smb.conf (the default is 4).
-
-Authentication Logging.
------------------------
-
-Winbind now logs PAM_AUTH and NTLM_AUTH events, a new attribute "logonId" has
-been added to the Authentication JSON log messages. This contains a random
-logon id that is generated for each PAM_AUTH and NTLM_AUTH request and is passed
-to SamLogon, linking the windbind and SamLogon requests.
-
-The serviceDescription of the messages is set to "winbind", the authDescription
-is set to one of:
- "PASSDB, <command>, <pid>"
- "PAM_AUTH, <command>, <pid>"
- "NTLM_AUTH, <command>, <pid>"
-where:
- <command> is the name of the command makinmg the winbind request i.e. wbinfo
- <pid> is the process id of the requesting process.
-
-The version of the JSON Authentication messages has been changed to 1.2 from 1.1
+CTDB CHANGES
+============
+* The NAT gateway and LVS features now uses the term "leader" to refer
+ to the main node in a group through which traffic is routed and
+ "follower" for other members of a group. The command for
+ determining the leader has changed to "ctdb natgw leader" (from
+ "ctdb natgw master"). The configuration keyword for indicating that
+ a node can not be the leader of a group has changed to
+ "follower-only" (from "slave-only"). Identical changes were made
+ for LVS.
