Release Announcements
=====================
This is the first preview release of Samba 4.6. This is *not*
intended for production environments and is designed for testing
purposes only. Please report any defects via the Samba bug reporting
system at https://bugzilla.samba.org/.
Samba 4.6 will be the next version of the Samba suite.
UPGRADING
=========
NEW FEATURES/CHANGES
====================
kerberos client encryption types
--------------------------------
Some parts of Samba (most notably winbindd) perform Kerberos client
operations based on a Samba-generated krb5.conf file. A new
parameter, "kerberos encryption types" allows configuring the
encryption types set in this file, thereby allowing the user to
enforce strong or legacy encryption in Kerberos exchanges.
The default value of "all" is compatible with previous behavior, allowing
all encryption algorithms to be negotiated. Setting the parameter to "strong"
only allows AES-based algorithms to be negotiated. Setting the parameter to
"legacy" allows only RC4-HMAC-MD5 - the legacy algorithm for Active Directory.
This can solves some corner cases of mixed environments with Server 2003R2 and
newer DCs.
new option for owner inheritance
--------------------------------
The "inherit owner" smb.conf parameter instructs smbd to set the
owner of files to be the same as the parent directory's owner.
Up until now, this parameter could be set to "yes" or "no".
A new option, "unix only", enables this feature only for the UNIX owner
of the file, not affecting the SID owner in the Windows NT ACL of the
file. This can be used to emulate something very similar to folder quotas.
