Users who were using the wrong spelling "ressource" with two "s" can keep the setting, but are advised to switch to the correct spelling. +ID Mapping +---------- +We discovered that the majority of users have an invalid or incorrect +ID mapping configuration. We implemented checks in the 'testparm' tool to +validate the ID mapping configuration. You should run it and check if it prints +any warnings or errors after upgrading! If it does you should fix them.
