LIBs flags changes for suid bins: LDFLAGS+='-Wl,-z,now'
3.0.12:
libsmbclient shared library retrocompatibility is not assured: please
rebuild all samba-linked third part packages
/etc/samba/private moved to ${PRIVATE_DST}
for better File System Hierarchy adeherence

functions of winbind (debug>=5 reveals secret ids in logs)
3.0.23:

CAN-2006-1059: memory exaustion DoS against smbd in all samba versions
between 3.0.x and 3.0.23
General:
If you experience client locks in file transfers _only_, try the parameter
use sendfile = no (man smb.conf(5), man sendfile(2))
There also seem some problems with the smbfs implementation of the recent
2.6.x kernels. If you experience problems (lockups) with smbfs, try
'mount -t cifs' as an alternative

If you are upgrading from prior to 3.0.2, and you are using LDAP for Samba
authentication, you must check the sambaPwdLastSet attribute on all
accounts, and ensure it is not 0.
3.0.12:
smbldap-tools is now a separate package for ease of upgrade
3.0.23:
a new index is required: 'index sambaSID sub' (run slapindex afterwards)
use an updated samba.schema containing the correct 'sambaSID' definition
