+ January, 27 2009
=============================
This is the first stable release of Samba 3.3.0.
Major enhancements in Samba 3.3.0 include:
+ General changes:
+ o The passdb tdbsam version has been raised.
+
Configuration/installation:
o Splitting of library directory into library directory and separate
modules directory.
File Serving:
o Extended Cluster support.
+ o New experimental VFS modules "vfs_acl_xattr" and "vfs_acl_tdb"
+ to store NTFS ACLs on Samba file servers.
Winbind:
o Simplified idmap configuration.
Account Management.
+General changes
+===============
+
+The passdb tdbsam version has been raised as among other things the RID counter
+has been moved from the winbindd_idmap.tdb to the passdb.tdb file to make
+"passdb backend = tdbsam" working in clustered environments.
+
+Please note that an updated passdb.tdb file is _not_ compatible with Samba
+versions before 3.3.0! Please backup your passdb.tdb file if
+you use "passdb backend = tdbsam". That can be achieved by running
+
+'tdbbackup /etc/samba/passdb.tdb'
+
+before the update.
