-This file aims to document the major changes since the latest released version 
-of Samba, 3.0. Samba 4.0 contains rewrites of several subsystems 
-and uses a different internal format for most data. Since this 
-file is an initial draft, please update missing items.
-
-One of the main goals of Samba 4 was Active Directory Domain Controller 
-support. This means Samba now implements several protocols that are required 
-by AD such as Kerberos and DNS.
-
-An (experimental) upgrade script that performs a one-way upgrade 
-from Samba 3 is available in source/setup/upgrade.
-
-Removal of nmbd and introduction of process models
-==================================================
-smbd now implements several network protocols other than just CIFS and 
-DCE/RPC. nmbd's functionality has been merged into smbd. smbd supports 
-various 'process models' that specify how concurrent connections are 
-handled (when to fork, use threads, etc). 
-
-Introduction of LDB
-===================
-Samba now stores most of its persistent data in a LDAP-like database 
-called LDB (see ldb(7) for more info). 
-
-Removed SWAT
-==================
-Unlike previous versions, Samba4 does not provide a web interface at this time.
-
-Built-in KDC
-============
-Samba4 ships with an integrated KDC (Kerberos Key Distribution
-Center).  Backed directly onto our main internal database, and
-integrated with custom code to handle the PAC, Samba4's KDC is an
-integral part of our support for AD logon protocols.
-
-Built-in LDAP Server
-====================
-Like the situation with the KDC, Samba4 ships with it's own LDAP
-server, included to provide simple, built-in LDAP services in an AD
-(rather than distinctly standards) matching manner.  The database is
-LDB, and it shares that in common with the rest of Samba.
-
-Changed configuration options
-=============================
-Several configuration options have been removed in Samba4 while others have 
-been introduced. This section contains a summary of changes to smb.conf and 
-where these settings moved. Configuration options that have disappeared may be 
-re-added later when the functionality that uses them gets reimplemented in 
-Samba 4.
-
-The 'security' parameter has been split up. It is now only used to choose 
-between the 'user' and 'share' security levels (the latter is not supported 
-in Samba 4 yet). The other values of this option and the 'domain master' and 
-'domain logons' parameters have been merged into a 'server role' parameter 
-that can be either 'domain controller', 'member server' or 'standalone'. Note that 
-member server support does not work yet.

- 
-The following parameters have been added:
-+ rpc big endian (G)
-	Make Samba fake it is running on a bigendian machine when using DCE/RPC. 
-	Useful for debugging.
-
-	Default: no
-
-+ case insensitive filesystem (S)
-	Set to true if this share is located on a case-insensitive filesystem.
-	This disables looking for a filename by trying all possible combinations of 
-	uppercase/lowercase characters and thus speeds up operations when a 
-	file cannot be found. 
-
-	Default: no
-	
-+ setup directory
-	Path to data used by provisioning script.
-
-	Default: Set at compile-time
-	
-+ ncalrpc dir
-	Directory to use for UNIX sockets used by the 'ncalrpc' DCE/RPC transport.
-
-	Default: Set at compile-time
-	
-+ ntvfs handler
-	Backend to the NT VFS to use (more than one can be specified). Available
-	backends include: 
-

-		Allows using SMB for inter process communication. Only used for 
-		the IPC$ share.

-		the be confused with the spoolss DCE/RPC interface used by later 
-		versions of Windows.

-+ ntptr providor
-	FIXME
