+ Release Notes for Samba 3.0.2a
+ February 13, 2004
+ ==============================
+
+Samba 3.0.2a is a minor patch release for the 3.0.2 code base
+to address, in particular, a problem when using pdbedit to
+sanitize (--force-initialized-passwords) Samba's tdbsam
+backend. This is the latest stable release of Samba. This
+is the version that all production Samba servers should be
+running for all current bug-fixes.
+
+******************* Attention! Achtung! Kree! *********************
+
+Beginning with Samba 3.0.2, passwords for accounts with a last
+change time (LCT-XXX in smbpasswd, sambaPwdLastSet attribute in
+ldapsam, etc...) of zero (0) will be regarded as uninitialized
+strings. This will cause authentication to fail for such
+accounts. If you have valid passwords that meet this criteria,
+you must update the last change time to a non-zero value. If you
+do not, then 'pdbedit --force-initialized-passwords' will disable
+these accounts and reset the password hashes to a string of X's.
+
