This is a preview release of the Samba 3.0.3 code base and
is provided for testing only.  This release is *not* intended
for production servers.  However, there have been several bug
fixes and new features added since 3.0.2a that we feel it is
important make it available to the Samba community for wider
testing.

Common bugs fixed in this preview release include:

   o Crash bugs and change notify issues in Samba's printing
     code.
   o Honoring secondary group membership on domain member
     servers.
   o TDB scalability issue surrounding the TDB_CLEAR_IF_FIRST
     flag.

New features introduced in this preview release include:

   o Improved support for i18n character sets.
   o Support for account lockout policy based on bad password
     attempts.
   o Improved support for long password changes (>14 characters)
     and strong password enforcement.
   o Continued work on support Windows aliases (i.e. nested
     groups).
