WHATS NEW IN Samba 3.0.0 RC3

WHATS NEW IN Samba 3.0.0
September 24, 2003
==============================
This is the third release candidate snapshot of Samba 3.0.0. A release
candidate implies that the code is very close to a final release, remember
that this is still a non-production release intended for testing purposes.
Use at your own risk.
The purpose of this release candidate is to get wider testing of the major
new pieces of code in the current Samba 3.0 development tree.
Please refer to the section on "Known Issues" for more details.
This is the first official release of Samba 3.0.0 code base. Work
on the SAMBA_3_0 CVS branch continues. Please refer to the section

Changes since 3.0rc2
Changes since 3.0rc4
####################
Please refer to the CVS log for the SAMBA_3_0 branch for complete
details:
1) Fix bug that prevented restoring filenames of length
>100 characters.
2) Fix bug that prevented fast path code in strchr_m
from being used.
3) Make sure we store the desired access flag on incoming
SAMR rpc calls.
4) Fix smbd crash when dealing with mangled file names.
5) Ensure that the group comment field is not overwritten
if it already exists.
6) Fix bug that prevented 'net rpc join' from working
with mixed mode AD domains (bug 442).
7) Fix crash in smbd when a Samba PDC is not able to
enumerate trusted domains (bug 450).
8) Fix crash bug found by the Samba4 testsuite.
9) Fix bug that prevented smbd from returning an ACL list
if one of the SIDs could not be resolved (bug 470).
10) Remove -P option from smbclient printing scripts since it
has a different meaning in Samba 3.0 (bug 473).
11) Sync smbldap-tools with latest version
12) Cleanup some warnings produced by the Sun C compiler.
13) Several fixes for SWAT relating to international character
sets.
Changes since 3.0rc3
####################
1) Fix incorrect error message in testparm.c regarding 'map system'.
2) Protect against core dump if ioctl for print job sends invalid
fid.
3) Fix bug in generic hash cacluation.
4) Remove references to unused 'strip dot' parameter
5) Fix CPU burn bug in multi-byte character conversion.
6) Use opt_target_workgroup instead of lp_workgroup() in vampire
code so we can override the value in smb.conf with the -w option.
7) Display an error if we can't create a posix account for the
user when running 'net rpc vampire' (bug 323).
8) Fix UTF8 conversion bugs in LDAP passdb and idmap code (bug 296).
9) Fix smbd crash when changing the machine trust account password
(bug 273).
10) Remove getpwnam() calls from init_sam_from_xxx(). This means
that %u & %g will no longer expand in the "login ..." set of
smb.conf options, but %U and %G still do. The payback is that
winbindd local accounts for users work with 'wbinfo -u'
when winbind is running on a Samba PDC.
11) Fix unitiailized timestamp where merging print_jobs and
lpq listing.
12) Fix bug in debian packaging files affecting non-i386 platforms.
Changes since 3.0rc2
####################
1) Remove Perl module dependencies in generated RedHat 8/9 RPMS.
2) Update mount helper to take synonyms for file_mode and
dir_mode (fmask and dmask).
