This is a pre-release of Samba 3.0 alpha0. This is NOT a stable
release. Use at your own risk.
This is a pre-release of Samba 3.0. This is NOT a stable release.
Use at your own risk.
The purpose of this alpha release is to get wider testing of the major
new pieces of code in the current Samba 3.0 development tree. We are
planning on ceasing development on the 2.2.x release of Samba very
shortly and after that we will be concentrating on Samba 3.0. To
reduce the time before the final Samba 3.0 release we need as many
poeple as possible to start testing these alpha releases, and
hopefully giving us some high quality feedback on what needs fixing.

release we need as many people as possible to start testing these alpha
releases, and hopefully giving us some high quality feedback on what needs
fixing.
Note that Samba 3.0 is not anywhere near feature complete yet. There
is a lot more coding we have planned, but unless we get what we have
done already more widely tested we will have a hard time doing a
stable release in a reasonable time frame.
This release is also missing major pieces of documentation, and there
are many parts of the docs that have not been updated to reflect the
new options and features in 3.0.

Major new features:

- Active Directory support. This release is able to join a ADS realm

LDAP/kerberos. Please read ADS-HOWTO.txt in the release for a very
rough guide on how to set this up.

- Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate unicode on the wire and
interally there is now a much better infrastructure for multi-byte
and unicode character sets. You may need the "dos charset", "unix
charset" and "display charset" options. The unicode support is not
yet documented.
- Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate UNICODE on the wire and
internally there is now a much better infrastructure for multi-byte
and UNICODE character sets.
- New authentication system. The internal authentication system has
been almost completely rewritten. Most of the changes are internal,

yet.

Plus lots of other changes!
Note that many new features are not documented. Don't let this stop
you from using Samba 3.0. It is particularly important that the basic
file/print serving abilities of Samba 3.0 are widely tested to ensure
that we have not broken any of the basic functionality. As we do more
alpha releases we will start to document the new features.
