Upgrading users with a server +services parameter specified should ensure they change 'winbind' to +'winbindd' to obtain the new functionality. + +The 'samba' binary still manages the starting of this service, there +is no need to start the winbindd binary manually. + Larger IO sizes for SMB2/3 by default ===================================== |
