If you have not previously configured the CIFS service, feel free to
ignore/delete this email.

The putback for:

6642047 Changes to SMF properties of the CIFS service - PSARC/2007/686

simplifies the administration of the CIFS service.  Please use the
attached script to remove all the obsolete SMF properties of the CIFS
service if your system has been upgraded to snv_81.

Please note the following changes:

1) Domain Join
~--------------------
Previously, both the ads_enable and ads_domain properties were required
to be set properly prior to joining a CIFS domain.  As of snv_81, it is
no longer necessary to set any of those properites.  Simply run smbadm
join CLI after both DNS and Kerberos have been properly configured. A
fully-qualified domain name is preferred as the domain argument of
smbadm join CLI when joining an AD domain.

e.g.) smbadm join -u Administrator ads_domain.sun.com

2) Dynamic DNS update
~------------------------------
Various dynamic DNS properties have been removed as they aren't
necessary. Previously, CIFS server used the domain specified as
ads_domain property when performing non-secure dynamic DNS updates in
workgroup mode.  As of snv_81, the domain field of the /etc/resolv.conf
would be used.

thanks,

Natalie
