2 Release Notes for Samba 3.6.0pre1
4 =================================
7 This is the first preview release of Samba 3.6. This is *not*
8 intended for production environments and is designed for testing
9 purposes only. Please report any defects via the Samba bug reporting
10 system at https://bugzilla.samba.org/.
13 Major enhancements in Samba 3.6.0 include:
20 Internal Winbind passdb changes
21 -------------------------------
23 Winbind has been changed to use the internal samr and lsa rpc pipe to get
24 local user and group information instead of calling passdb functions. The
25 reason is to use more of our infrastructure and test this infrastructure by
26 using it. With this approach more code in Winbind is shared.
32 Added the new SMB Traffic Analyzer (SMBTA) VFS module protocol 2
33 featuring encryption, multiple arguments, and easier parseability. A new
34 tool 'smbta-util' has been created to control the encryption behaviour
35 of SMBTA. For compatibility, SMBTA by default operates on version 1.
36 There are programs consuming the data that the module sends.
