Major changes since beta 7 |

========================== |
|
|
* No major changes were introduced since beta 7 |
|
|
|
|
|
Major changes in beta 7 |
|
|
======================= |
|
|
* Require authentication for all emails, including local. |
|
|
* Optional - to use ext4 instead of ext3 for file systems |
|
|
(except for /boot). At the boot prompt use "ext4" or "sme ext4". |
|
|
*** ext4 is considered experimental, so use with caution *** |
|
|
* Optional - LDAP authentication can be enabled. Once enabled it cannot |
|
|
be disabled, so experiment with care. |
|
|
To enable: db configuration setprop ldap Authentication enabled |
|
|
|
|
|
Major changes in beta 5 |
|
|
======================= |
|
|
The policy is to stick with upstream updates unless there are compelling |
|
|
reasons not to. The number of customers unable to run the software they |
|
|
want because of the PHP version constituted a compelling reason. |
|
|
|
|
|
PHP 5.2.10: is provided by the Red Hat Application Stack v2. |
|
|
5.2 is needed by recent web applications such as OScommerce. |
