+Configuration changes
+=====================
+
+!!! ATTENTION !!!
+The default passdb backend has been changed to 'tdbsam'! That breaks existing
+setups using the 'smbpasswd' backend without explicit declaration! Please use
+'passdb backend = smbpasswd' if you would like to stick to the 'smbpasswd'
+backend or convert your smbpasswd entries using e.g. 'pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e
+tdbsam'.
+
+The 'tdbsam' backend is much more flexible concerning per user settings
+like 'profile path' or 'home directory' and there are some commands which do not
+work with the 'smbpasswd' backend at all.
