A regression has been fixed where strict enforcement of POSIX rules for user and group names prevented Samba 3 from using its "add machine script" feature with useradd. Also, the maximum length for a username/groupname is now 31 (previously it was 32). The lastlog command can now handle extremely large (greater than 4GB) lastlogs.
