> This is the latest stable release of the Samba 4.8 release series.

First I wanted to cheer to all the Samba team for all the great work. 
Keep on the good job!

Looking at the changelog, I was wondering if bugfix for #13335 [1] 
("after update to 4.8.0 DC failed with "Failed to find our own NTDS 
Settings objects") had made it into this release. I didn't saw anything 
about it in the changelog, and looking at the backport patch from master 
in the bug report, I am not sure to see the corresponding code in 4.8.1.

Cheers,

Denis
