hashes that we had also been storing in supplementalCredentials.
+Improvements to DNS during Active Directory domain join
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+The 'samba-tool' domain join command will now add the A and GUID DNS records
+(on both the local and remote servers) during a join if possible via RPC. This
+should allow replication to proceed more smoothly post-join.
+
+The mname element of the SOA record will now also be dynamically generated to
+point to the local read-write server. 'samba_dnsupdate' should now be more
+reliable as it will now find the appropriate name server even when resolv.conf
+points to a forwarder.
