Hello,

Is the fix for #9746 included? Seems like it was requested for
inclusion in 3.6.x more then 3 weeks ago
(https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9746#c20), but is not
mentioned in the announcement. :(

Best regards,
Andriy.

> Note about upgrading from older versions:
> -----------------------------------------
>
> It is still the case that there are printing tdbs (ntprinting.tdb, ntforms.tdb,
> ntdrivers.tdb) which are in latin1 or other encodings. When updating from
> Samba 3.5 or earlier to Samba 3.6 or 4.0 these tdbs need to be migrated to our
> new registry based printing management.  This means during the migration we
> also need to do charset conversion. This can only been done manually cause we don't
> know in which encoding the tdb is. You have to specify the correct code page
> for the conversion, see iconv -l and Wikipedia [1] for the available codepages.
> The mostly used one is Windows Latin1 which is CP1252.
>
> We've extended the 'net printing dump' and 'net printing migrate' commands to
> define the encoding of the tdb. So you can correctly view the tdb with:
>
>   net printing dump encoding=CP1252 /path/to/ntprinters.tdb
>
> or migrate it with e.g.:
>
>   net printing migrate encoding=CP1252 /path/to/ntprinters.tdb
>
> If you migrate printers we suggest you do it in the following order.
>
> ntforms.tdb
> ntdrivers.tdb
> ntprinting.tdb
>
> Don't forget to rename, move or delete these files in /var/lib/samba after the
> migration.
