Re: [Announce] Samba 3.5.9 Available for Download

Please note that the Samba 3.5.9 release notes have been extended after
the release. The following paragraph on the changed Kerberos behaviour
has been added for clarification:

-----8<------------------snip--------------8<--------------
New Kerberos behaviour
----------------------

A new parameter 'client use spnego principal' defaults to 'no' and
mean Samba will use CIFS/hostname to obtain a kerberos ticket, acting
more like Windows when using Kerberos against a CIFS server in
smbclient, winbind and other Samba client tools.  This will change
which servers we will successfully negotiate kerberos connections to.
This is due to Samba no longer trusting a server-provided hint which
is not available from Windows 2008 or later.  For correct operation
with all clients, all aliases for a server should be recorded as a as
a servicePrincipalName on the server's record in AD.
