- <p>The first release candidate of Samba 3.0.5 is now available for
- download in <a href="/samba/ftp/rc/samba-3.0.5rc1.tar.gz">gzipped
- format</a>. The <a href="/samba/ftp/rc/samba-3.0.5rc1.tar.asc">GPG
- signature</a> is for the uncompressed tarball.
- There have been several bug fixes since the 3.0.4 release that
- we feel are important to make available to the Samba community
- for wider testings. This release is <b>not</b> intended for production
- servers. Use at your own risk. Please refer to the <a

-<li>(16 June 2004) <em>Welcome new Samba Team member Vance Lankhaar</em>
- <p>Vance is joining the Samba Team as maintainer of the <a
- href="http://build.samba.org">build farm</a>. Vance has been
- around Samba for a while now. He has previous contributions
- to the build farm and has worked on Samba's documentation, and though
- he didn't consider himself a C programmer at the time, he did build
- the 'build options' support for smbd. We are glad to welcome Vance
- to the team!</p>

-<li>(25th May, 2004) <em>Samba 3.0.5pre1 Available for Download</em>
- <p>The first preview release of Samba 3.0.5 is now available for
- download in <a href="/samba/ftp/pre/samba-3.0.5pre1.tar.gz">gzipped format</a>.
- The <a href="/samba/ftp/pre/samba-3.0.5pre1.tar.asc">GPG signature</a> is for the uncompressed tarball.
- There have been several bug fixes since the 3.0.4 release that
- we feel are important to make available to the Samba community
- for wider testings. This release is <b>not</b> intended for production
- servers. Use at your own risk. Please refer to the <a
- href="/samba/ftp/pre/WHATSNEW-3-0-5pre1.txt">Release Notes</a> for
- descriptions of the exact changes.
-
- <P><b>ATTENTION! NEW BEHAVIOR!</b>
-
- <p>Beginning with Samba 3.0.5pre1, clients supporting the UNIX
- extensions to the CIFS protocol can create symlinks to
- absolute paths which <em>will be followed</em> by the server. This
- functionality has been requested in order to correctly support
- certain applications when the user's home directory is mounted
- using some type of CIFS client (e.g. the cifsvfs in the Linux
- 2.6 kernel).
-
- <p>If this behavior is not acceptable for your production environment,
- you can set <a href="/samba/docs/man/smb.conf.5.html">wide
- links = no</a> in the specific share declaration in
- the server's smb.conf. Be aware that disabling wide link support
- out of a share in Samba may impact the server's performance due
- to the fact that smbd will now have to check each path additional
- times before traversing it.

- <p><a href="http://samba.org/~jerry/RPMS/samba/">RPMS for RedHat 8/9
- and Fedora Core 1</a> can be also be downloaded.

- <p>The latest patch release of the 3.0 code base, Samba 3.0.4,

- This is the latest stable release of Samba. This is
- the version that production Samba servers should be running for all
- current bug-fixes. There have been several issues fixed since
- the 3.0.3 release, the most visible of which is the problem with user
- password changes after applying the Microsoft security hotfix described
- in KB828741 to Windows NT 4.0/200x/XP clients. Please
- refer to the <a href="whatsnew/samba-3.0.4.html">Release Notes</a> for
- descriptions of the exact changes and new features.
-
- <p>Samba 2.2.9 is the latest stable release of the Samba 2.2
- code base. This is a maintenance release of Samba 2.2.8a to
- address the problem with user password changes after applying
- the Microsoft hotfix described in KB828741 to Windows NT
- 4.0/200x/XP clients. No other changes have been applied since
- Samba 2.2.8a. There are no further Samba 2.2.x releases planned
- at this time. Samba 2.2.9 can be downloaded in <a
- href="/samba/ftp/samba-2.2.9.tar.gz">gzipped format</a>.
- The <a href="/samba/ftp/samba-2.2.9.tar.asc">GPG signature</a> is
- for the uncompressed tarball. The <a
- href="whatsnew/samba-2.2.9.html">release notes</a> are available on-line.
