|
|
Testers Please Note the following... |
23 |
|
|
|
24 |
|
|
1. CentOS 5 has dropped support for i586 and therefore SME Server 8 |
25 |
|
|
will not work on i586 hardware. [See bugzilla:2845]. i586 hardware |
26 |
|
|
means processors before and including Intel Pentium, Pentium MMX; |
27 |
|
|
AMD K5, K6, K6-II, K6-III and Via C3. i686 architecture processors |
28 |
|
|
are Intel Pentium Pro, Pentium II, Pentium III; AMD Athlon, |
29 |
|
|
Athlon XP and later. |
30 |
|
|
|
31 |
|
|
2. Upgrading from previous releases should only be done on clean |
32 |
|
|
machines without contribs or other modifications. Issues with |
33 |
|
|
upgrading from clean SME machines can be reported in the bug |
34 |
|
|
tracker, but detailed reviews of upgrading paths will not start |
35 |
|
|
until Release Candidate versions are made available. |

About SME Server |
46 |
|
|
================ |
47 |
|
|
|
48 |
|
|
SME Server is the leading Linux distribution for small and medium |
49 |
wellsi |
1.4 |
enterprises. |
50 |
wellsi |
1.2 |
|
51 |
|
|
SME Server is freely available under the GNU General Public License |
52 |
|
|
and is only possible through the efforts of the SME Server community. |
53 |
|
|
However, the availability and quality of SME Server is dependent on |
54 |
|
|
meeting our expenses, such as hosting costs, server hardware, etc. |
55 |
|
|
|
56 |
|
|
As such, we ask for a small donation to offset costs and fund further |
57 |
|
|
development. |

Thanks and a plea for help |
63 |
|
|
========================== |
64 |
|
|
|
65 |
|
|
The development team would like to thank all of those who have involved |
66 |
|
|
themselves with this beta release. At this stage in development the role |
67 |
|
|
of testers is vital; the final release date and the stability and quality |
68 |
|
|
of the new version depend on full and thorough testing by all levels of |
69 |
|
|
users, right from beginners who may be confused by, and draw the developers |
70 |
|
|
attention to, insufficiently transparent system design, up to seasoned |
71 |
|
|
and skilled users who can probe the system deeply. Bug triage and |
72 |
|
|
verification testing needs lots of community involvement; please try to |
73 |
|
|
spare some time to this vital aspect of our community's future. |
74 |

This release, which is based on a major update of the Centos Core, contains |
76 |
wellsi |
1.3 |
many new features. Please run Software Installer in Server Manager |
77 |
|

regularly during testing to be sure your system reflects the latest stage |
78 |
|
|
of development. |

Major changes in beta 5 |
81 |
|
|
======================= |
82 |
|
|
The policy is to stick with upstream updates unless there are compelling reasons |
83 |
|
|
not to. The number of customers unable to run the software they want because of |
84 |
|
|
the Samba and PHP versions constituted a compelling reason. |
85 |
|
|
|
86 |
|
|
Samba 3.4.3: has been updated from sources provided by ClearOS. |
87 |
|
|
This version of samba provides support for Windows 7 domain logins. |
88 |
|
|
|
89 |
|
|
PHP 5.2.10: is provided by the Red Hat Application Stack v2. |
90 |
|
|
5.2 is needed by recent web applications such as OScommerce. |
91 |
|
|
|
92 |
|
|
LDAP authentication: third party applications can authenticate against |
93 |
|
|
SME Users passwords. LDAP is still read only, built automatically |
94 |
|
|
from SME databases. |

SME-associated developers in 2009 and 2010 where the most recent changes |
101 |

102 |
|
|
included earlier changes and changes carried out by non-SME-associated |
103 |
|
|
developers; these were removed to shorten the list. Packages recently |
104 |
|
|
altered by Centos, Redhat, and Fedora-associated developers are not |
