Release Announcements
=====================

This is a bug fix release of the Samba 3.2 series.

Major bug fixes included in Samba 3.2.2 are:

  o Fix removal of dead records in tdb files. This can lead to very large
    tdb files and to overflowing partitions as a consequence on systems
    running an nmbd daemon.
  o Fix "force group" in setups using Winbind.
  o Fix freezing Windows Explorer on WinXP while browsing Samba shares.
    This one led to timeouts during printing as well.
  o Fix assigning of primary group memberships when authenticating via
    Winbind.
  o Fix creation and installation of shared libraries.
