80    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.
