- WHATS NEW IN Samba 2.2.1a: 11th July 2001
+ WHATS NEW IN Samba 2.2.2: 3rd October 2001
==========================================
This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is the version that all
production Samba servers should be running for all current bug-fixes.
+New/Changed parameters in 2.2.1
+-------------------------------
+
+Added parameters.
+-----------------
+
+ssl cert
+
+Synonym for ssl server cert
+
+ssl key
+
+Synonym for ssl server key
+
+ssl egd socket
+
+ssl entropy file
+
+ssl entropy bytes
+
+strict allocate
+
+use mmap
+
+disable spoolss
+
+Enabling this parameter will disables Samba's support for the SPOOLSS set
+of MS-RPC's and will yield identical behavior as Samba 2.0.x. Windows NT/2000
+clients will downgrade to using Lanman style printing commands. Windows 9x/ME
+will be uneffected by the parameter. However, this will also disable the
+ability to upload printer drivers to a Samba server via the Windows NT Add
+Printer Wizard or by using the NT printer properties dialog window. It will
+also disable the capability of Windows NT/2000 clients to download print
+drivers from the Samba host upon demand. Be very careful about enabling this
+parameter.
+
+use client driver
+
+This parameter applies only to Windows NT/2000
+clients. It has no affect on Windows 95/98/ME clients. When
+serving a printer to Windows NT/2000 clients without first installing
+a valid printer driver on the Samba host, the client will be required
+to install a local printer driver. From this point on, the client
+will treat the print as a local printer and not a network printer
+connection. This is much the same behavior that will occur
+when "disable spoolss = yes"
+
+ldap admin dn
+
+renamed from ldap root
+
+ldap ssl
+
+winbind enum users
+
+On large installations using winbindd it may be necessary to suppress
+the enumeration of users through the setpwent(), getpwent() and
+endpwent() group of system calls. If the winbind enum users parameter
+is false, calls to the getpwent system call will not return any data.
+
+winbind enum groups
+
+On large installations using winbindd it may be necessary to suppress
+the enumeration of groups through the setgrent(), getgrent() and
+endgrent() group of system calls. If the winbind enum groups parameter
+is false, calls to the getgrent() system call will not return any data.
+
+Removed parameters.
