The "DebianEdu/Status/Bullseye" page has been changed by WolfgangSchweer:

Comment:
make separate issues more visible, add information about Samba setup and related  manual update

  
  == Installation ==
  
+ === Changes ===
+ 
+  * Due to Samba dropping the insecure SMB1 protocol, setting up the main server as NT4-style PDC is no longer possible. Joining systems to the domain now requires a Samba AD DC setup; this isn't compliant with the existing Debian Edu infrastructure (OpenLDAP, MIT Kerberos, GOsa²). The main server is now configured as a Samba 'standalone server' with usershares for non-root users enabled. Connections to a user's home directory and to additional site specific shares (if configured) are possible for devices running Linux, Android, macOS, iOS or Windows. (Android devices require a file manager with SMB2/SBM3 support, also known as LAN access. [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lonelycatgames.Xplore&hl=en_US&gl=US|X-plore]] or [[https://www.ghisler.com/android.htm|Total Commander with LAN plugin]] might be a good choice.)  
+ 
- {i} At first boot of a combined server or a separate LTSP server the image for diskless workstation support is generated. This will take quite some time.

Instead of the default ''xfce'' desktop environment, ''mate'', ''gnome'', ''lxde'', ''lxqt'', ''cinnamon'' or ''kde'' can be used by editing the kernel {{{desktop}}} parameter (default: {{{desktop=xfce}}}). Dropping the modules= and desktop= items from the kernel command line completely allows one to use all ISO images for stock Debian installations.

  == Known problems we want to fix ==
  
   * add Bullseye artwork once Debian has chosen a theme; in the meantime the futurePrototype theme is used (updated to show the Bullseye version number 11).
-  * major manual update due to LTSP changes. 
+  * major manual update due to LTSP and Samba changes. 
   * GOSa²: deprecated implode() function usage with PHP 7.4 messes up GUI items, see DebianBug:964600.
