| case for better consistency. This means any winbind installation
| relying on the winbind username will need to rename existing
| directories and/or files based on the username (%u and %U) to lower
| case (e.g. mv $name `echo $name | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`). This may
| include mail spool files, home directories, valid user lines in
| smb.conf, etc...."

| I am not sure if I understand this correctly. All my group names are
| showing in their usual case.

The case for domain groups did not change in the release.
We debated changing that as well but held back for now.
