WHATS NEW IN 1.9.17alpha1 - May 21st 1997.
|
||||
==========================================
|
||||
|
||||
Improved browsing support.
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Samba now should support propagation of browse lists
|
||||
across subnets correctly. Look in the file docs/BROWSING.txt
|
||||
as it has been largely re-written to explain how to do this.
|
||||
|
||||
Thanks to Silicon Graphics for allowing us to test the new
|
||||
code on their corporate network.
|
||||
|
||||
Improved share mode handling
|
||||
----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The handling of share modes has been completely rewritten.
|
||||
Samba can now run agressive PC Benchmarks (Ziff-Davis
|
||||
NetBench) correctly with many hundreds of concurrent PC's.
|
||||
The confidence level on share mode handling in Samba
|
||||
is now much higher than it was previously. PC database
|
||||
packages should be much safer when run against a
|
||||
Samba share. Thanks to Silicon Graphics for testing
|
||||
this code for us.
|
||||
|
||||
If at all possible compile Samba to use the new share
|
||||
mode handling with shared memory (set the flags
|
||||
FAST_SHARE_MODES in the Makefile). This will be *much* faster
|
||||
than old file-based share modes. FAST_SHARE_MODES have
|
||||
been turned on by default on the following platforms in
|
||||
the Makefile :
|
||||
|
||||
Linux
|
||||
Solaris
|
||||
BSDI
|
||||
IRIX 5.x.x
|
||||
FreeBSD
|
||||
|
||||
Updated smb.conf documentation
|
||||
------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
All options are now documented we believe.
|
||||
|
||||
Many small bugfixes and improvements
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
From around the 'net around the world. Many
|
||||
thanks to everyone who contributed.
|
||||
|
||||
Remember - this is new code so there may be
|
||||
bugs or problems.
|
||||
|
||||
As always, all bugs are our responsibility -
|
||||
