                    === SSSD 1.9.2 ===

The SSSD team is proud to announce the release of version 1.9.2 of
the System Security Services Daemon.

This is mostly a bugfix release again. I am going to branch off the 1.9
branch from master so that we can start including the 1.10 features in
master.

As always, the source is available from https://fedorahosted.org/sssd

RPM packages will be made available for Fedora shortly, initially for F-18
and rawhide and later also backported to F-17.

== Feedback ==

Please provide comments, bugs and other feedback via the sssd-devel or
sssd-users mailing lists:
    https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-devel
    https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-users

== Highlights ==
    * Users or groups from trusted domains can be retrieved by UID or GID as well
    * Several fixes that mitigate file descriptor leak during logins
    * SSH host keys are also removed from the cache after being removed
      from the server
    * Fix intermittent crash in responders if the responder was shutting
      down while requests were still pending
    * Catch an error condition that might have caused a tight loop in the
      sssd_nss process while refreshing expired enumeration request
    * Fixed memory hierarchy of subdomains discovery requests that caused
      use-after-free access bugs
    * The krb5_child and ldap_child processes can print libkrb5 tracing
      information in the debug logs
