+ <title>Updates and Changes in Idealx smbldap-tools</title>
+
+ <para>
+ The smbldap-tools have been maturing rapidly over the past year. With maturation comes change.
+ The location of the <filename>smbldap.conf</filename> and the <filename>smbldap_bind.conf</filename>
+ configuration files have been moved from the directory <filename>/etc/smbldap-tools</filenam> to
+ the new location of <filename>/etc/opt/IDEALX/smblda-tools</filename> directory.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The smbldap-tools maintains an entry in the LDAP directory in which it stores the next
+ values that should be used for UID and GID allocation for POSIX accounts that are created
+ using this tool. The DIT location of these values has changed recently. The original
+ <constant>sambaUnixIdPooldn object</constant> entity was stored in a directory entry (DIT object)
+ called <constant>NextFreeUnixId</constant>, this has been changed to the DIT object
+ <constant>sambaDomainName</constant>. Anyone who updates from an older version to the
+ current release should note that the information stored under <constant>NextFreeUnixId</constant>
+ must now be relocated to the DIT object <constant>sambaDomainName</constant>.
