(7th Jun, 2003) Samba-3.0.0beta1 available for download
The first beta release of Samba 3.0.0 is available for download. While significantly closer to the final release, it should still be considered a non-production release provided for testing purposes only. The source code and GnuPG signatures can be found on Samba mirrors. RedHat RPMS for 7.3, 8.0 and 9.0 are also available in the Binary_Packages download area. Packages for other platforms will follow shortly. The full release notes are available on-line as well.
A new bug tracking server is available for beta testing in conjunction with the Samba 3.0.0beta1 release. The new Bugzilla server will eventually replace the older jitterbug installation (bugs.samba.org).

fast noch wichtiger, sind die neuen features: Major new features:
-------------------
1) Active Directory support. This release is able to join a ADS realm
as a member server and authenticate users using LDAP/kerberos.
2) Unicode support. Samba will now negotiate UNICODE on the wire and
internally there is now a much better infrastructure for multi-byte
and UNICODE character sets.
3) New authentication system. The internal authentication system has
been almost completely rewritten. Most of the changes are internal,
but the new auth system is also very configurable.
4) New filename mangling system. The filename mangling system has been
completely rewritten. An internal database now stores mangling maps
persistently. This needs lots of testing.
5) New "net" command. A new "net" command has been added. It is
somewhat similar to the "net" command in windows. Eventually we
plan to replace a bunch of other utilities (such as smbpasswd)
with subcommands in "net", at the moment only a few things are
implemented.
6) Samba now negotiates NT-style status32 codes on the wire. This
improves error handling a lot.
7) Better Windows 2000/XP/2003 printing support including publishing
printer attributes in active directory
8) New loadable RPC modules
9) New dual-daemon winbindd support (-B) for better performance
10) Support for migrating from a Windows NT 4.0 domain to a Samba
domain and maintaining user, group and domain SIDs
11) Support for establishing trust relationships with Windows NT 4.0
domain controllers
12) Initial support for a distributed Winbind architecture using
an LDAP directory for storing SID to uid/gid mappings
