+o Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
+ * BUG 6082: Fix renaming and deleting of directories using Windows clients.
+ * BUG 6154: Make ZFS honor admin users.
+ * BUG 6155: Fix "force group".
+ * BUG 6160: Fix saving of files on Samba share using MS Office 2007.
+ * BUG 6161: Fix corruptions of source path in tar mode of smbclient.
+ * Fix some NetBSD warnings.
+ * Fix bug in processing of open modes in POSIX open.
+ * Fix use of streams modules with CIFSFS client.
+ * Ensure ACL modules work with POSIX paths.
+ * Use fsp->posix_open in preference if we have it.
+ * Fix more POSIX path lstat calls.
-Winbind idmap backend changes
-=============================
+o Andrew Tridgell <tridge@samba.org>
+ * Fix a bug in message handling for the change notify code.
-The idmap configuration has changed with version 3.3 to something that
-allows a smoother upgrade path from pre-3.0.25 configurations that use
-"idmap backend". The reason for this change is that to many, also to Samba
-developers, the 3.0.25 style configuration with "idmap config" turned out
-to be very complex. Version 3.3 no longer deprecates the "idmap backend"
-parameter, instead with "idmap backend" the default idmap backend is
-specified.
-Accordingly, the "idmap config <domain> : default = yes" setting is no
-longer being looked at. As another simplification, there can be only one
-allocating backend.
+o Steven Danneman <steven.danneman@isilon.com>
+ * Fix guest authentication in setups with "security = share" and "guest ok =
+ yes" when Winbind is running.
-The alloc backend defaults to the default backend, which should be able to
-allocate IDs. In the default distribution the tdb and ldap backends can
-allocate, the ad and rid backends can not. The idmap alloc range is now
-being set with the "old" parameters "idmap uid" and "idmap gid".
-The "idmap domains" parameter has been removed.
+o Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com>
+ * BUG 4640: Fix guest mounts in mount.cifs.
+ * Fix displaying the version string properly when no other parameters passed
+ in in mount.cifs.
-winbind reconnect delay
-=======================
+o Björn Jacke <bj@sernet.de>
+ * Prefer gssapi header files from subdirectory.
-This is a new parameter which specifies the number of seconds the Winbind
-daemon will wait between attempts to contact a Domain controller for a domain
-that is determined to be down or not contactable.
+o Volker Lendecke <vl@samba.org>
+ * BUG 6124: Fix the build on IRIX.
+ * BUG 6176: winbindd -n should disable the winbind idmap cache.
+ * Add a vfs_preopen module to hide fs latencies.
+ * Don't log NDR_PRINT_DEBUG at level 0, this always ends up in syslog.
+ * Fix a valgrind error / segfault in dns_register_smbd().
