Announcement:
-------------

The new CID version (1.1.3) has had its code adapted to work around the
offline authentication failure issue (Bug #14618) in Debian-based distros.
The correction is done automatically and transparently for users, simply
updating the software version to the latest one.

Now the CID also enables by default the Samba support for Group Policies
(GPOs) on Winbind clients when CID logon scripts are enabled.
