4 This is the first preview release of Samba 4.4. This is *not*
5 intended for production environments and is designed for testing
6 purposes only. Please report any defects via the Samba bug reporting
7 system at https://bugzilla.samba.org/.
9 Samba 4.4 will be the next version of the Samba suite.
20 Flush requests from SMB2/3 clients are handled asynchronously and do
21 not block the processing of other requests. Note that 'strict sync'
22 has to be set to 'yes' for Samba to honor flush requests from SMB
28 The WINS nsswitch module has been rewritten to address memory issues and to
29 simplify the code. The module now uses libwbclient to do WINS queries. This
30 means that winbind needs to be running in order to resolve WINS names using
31 the nss_wins module. This does not affect smbd.

47 * Configuration variable CTDB_NATGW_SLAVE_ONLY is no longer used.
48 Instead, nodes should be annotated with the "slave-only" option in
49 the CTDB NAT gateway nodes file. This file must be consistent
50 across nodes in a NAT gateway group. See ctdbd.conf(5) for more
53 * The CTDB tunable parameter EventScriptTimeoutCount has been renamed
54 to MonitorTimeoutCount
56 It has only ever been used to limit timed-out monitor events.
58 Configurations containing CTDB_SET_EventScriptTimeoutCount=<n> will
59 cause CTDB to fail at startup. Useful messages will be logged.
