+ =============================
+ Release Notes for Samba 4.1.0
+ October 11, 2013
+ =============================
+
+
+This is is the first stable release of Samba 4.1.
+
+Samba 4.1 will be the next version of the Samba suite and includes
+all the technology found in both the Samba4 series and the stable 3.x
+series. The primary additional features over Samba 3.6 are
+support for the Active Directory logon protocols used by Windows 2000
+and above.
+
+Major enhancements in Samba 4.1.0 include:
+
+Client tools support SMB2/3
+===========================
+
+Samba 4.1.0 contains the first release of our client tools
+and client library that work over the new protocols SMB2 or SMB3.
+Note that SMB3 only works either to a Samba server version 4.0.0
+or above, or to a Windows Server running Windows 2012 or Windows 8.
+
+The default protocol for smbclient and smbcacls is still
+SMB1 (the NT1 protocol dialect). An SMB2 or SMB3 connection
+can be selected in one of two ways. The easiest way to test
+the new protocol connection is to add the -mMAX_PROTOCOL
+command line switch to either smbclient or smbcacls.
+
+For example, to connect using SMB3 with smbclient a user
+would type:
+
+smbclient //server/share -Uuser%password -mSMB3
+
+Another example of connecting using SMB2 using smbcacls
+would be:
+
+smbcacls //server/share -Uuser%password -mSMB2 filename
+
+Note that when connecting using SMB2 or SMB3 protocols
+the UNIX extensions are no longer available inside the
+smbclient command set. This is due to UNIX extensions
+not yet being defined for the SMB2 or SMB3 protocols.
+
+The second way to select SMB2 or SMB3 connections is to
+set the "client max protocol" parameter in the [global]
+section of your smb.conf.
+
+Setting this parameter will cause all client connections
+from Samba and its client tools to offer the requested
+max protocol to a server on every connection request.
+
+For example, to cause all client tools (including winbindd,
+rpcclient, and the libsmbclient library) to attempt use SMB3
+by default add the line:
+
+client max protocol = SMB3
+
+to the [global] section of your smb.conf. This has not
+been as widely tested as the -mPROTOCOL options, but
+is intended to work correctly in the final release of
+4.1.0.
+
+Encrypted transport
+===================
+
+Although Samba servers have supported encrypted transport
+connections using the UNIX extensions for many years,
+selecting SMB3 transport allows encrypted transport
+connections to Windows servers that support SMB3, as
+well as Samba servers.
+
+In order to enable this, add the "-e" option to the
+smbclient command line.
+
+For example, to connect to a Windows 2012 server over
+SMB3 and select an encrypted transport you would use
+the following command line:
+
+smbclient //Win2012Server/share -Uuser%password -mSMB3 -e
+
+
+Directory database replication (AD DC mode)
+===========================================
+
+Directory replication has been reworked in order to improve the
+correctness and efficiency.
+As a net effect of it, replication with other domain controllers with
+a heavily modified schema is now possible (ie. Windows 2012 DCs or
+other Windows DC with exchange installed) and replication didn't fail
+anymore in such environments.
+
+
+Server-Side Copy Support
+========================
+
+Samba 4.1.0 adds support for server-side copy operations via the SMB2
+FSCTL_SRV_COPYCHUNK request. Clients making use of server-side copy
+support, such as Windows Server 2012, should experience considerable
+performance improvements for file copy operations, as file data need not
+traverse the network.
+This feature is enabled by default on the smbd file server.
+
+
+Btrfs Filesystem Integration
+============================
+
+The Btrfs VFS module provided with Samba 4.1.0 further improves the
+performance of server-side copy operations on shares backed by a Btrfs
+filesystem. It does so by allowing multiple files to share the same
+on-disk extents, avoiding the unnecessary duplication of source and
+destination file data during a server-side copy operation.
+
+This feature can be explicitly enabled on smbd shares backed by a Btrfs
+filesystem with the smb.conf parameter:
+vfs objects = btrfs
+
+
+REMOVED COMPONENTS
+==================
+
+The Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT) has been removed.
+Details why SWAT has been removed can be found on the samba-technical mailing
+list:
