+Winbind changes
+---------------
+
+The dependency to global list of trusted domains within
+the winbindd processes has been reduced a lot.
+
+The construction of that global list is not reliable and often
+incomplete in complex trust setups. In most situations the list is not needed
+any more for winbindd to operate correctly. E.g. for plain file serving via SMB
+using a simple idmap setup with autorid, tdb or ad. However some more complex
+setups require the list, e.g. if you specify idmap backends for specific
+domains. Some pam_winbind setups may also require the global list.
+
+If you have a setup that doesn't require the global list, you should set
+"winbind scan trusted domains = no".
