-Samba 4.0 alpha supports the server-side of the Active Directory logon
-environment used by Windows 2000 and later, so we can do full domain
-join and domain logon operations with these clients.
-
-Our Domain Controller (DC) implementation includes our own built-in
-LDAP server and Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) as well as the
-Samba3-like logon services provided over CIFS. We correctly generate
-the infamous Kerberos PAC, and include it with the Kerberos tickets we
-issue.
-
-Samba 4.0 alpha ships with two distinct file servers. The file server
-from the Samba 3.x series is 'smbd', and works with the binaries users
-would expect from that series (nmbd, winbindd, smbpasswd).
-
-Samba 4.0 also ships with a new file server, which is tuned to match
-the requirements of an AD domain controller. Users should not use the
-file server in the 'samba' binary for non-DC related tasks.
-
-A new scripting interface has been added to Samba 4, allowing Python
-programs to interface to Samba's internals, and many tools and
-internal workings of the DC code is now implemented in python.

-
-Some major user-visible changes include:
-
-samba-tool dbcheck
-------------------
-
-We now have an fsck-like tool for Samba's internal sam.ldb database.
-Run samba-tool dbcheck after installation to check your database for
-self-consistency. Any database created with a previous Samba4 alpha
-will have a very large number of consistency errors, which this tool
-can fix.
