|
|
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that implements
|
|
the Server Message Block(commonly abbreviated as SMB) protocol for
|
|
UNIX systems. This protocol is sometimes also referred to as the
|
|
Common Internet File System (CIFS), LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.

|
|
<h2>COMPONENTS</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Samba suite is made up of several components. Each component is
|
|
described in a separate manual page. It is strongly recommended that
|
|
you read the documentation that comes with Samba and the manual pages
|
|
of those components that you use. If the manual pages aren't clear
|
|
enough then please send a patch or bug report
|
|
to <a href="mailto:samba@samba.org"><em>samba@samba.org</em></a>.

|
|
clients, such as Windows 95/98, Windows NT, Windows for Workgroups or
|
|
LanManager. The configuration file for this daemon is described in

<a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a>.

|
client. This is useful for accessing SMB shares on other compatible
|
|
servers (such as Windows NT), and can also be used to allow a UNIX box
|
|
to print to a printer attached to any SMB server (such as a PC running
|
|
Windows NT).

<h2>AVAILABILITY</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Samba software suite is licensed under the GNU Public License
|
|
(GPL). A copy of that license should have come with the package in the
|
|
file COPYING. You are encouraged to distribute copies of the Samba
|
|
suite, but please obey the terms of this license.
|
|
<p>The latest version of the Samba suite can be obtained via anonymous
|
|
ftp from samba.org in the directory pub/samba/. It is
|
|
also available on several mirror sites worldwide.
|
|
<p>You may also find useful information about Samba on the newsgroup
|
|
comp.protocols.smb and the Samba mailing list. Details on how to join
|
|
the mailing list are given in the README file that comes with Samba.
|
|
<p>If you have access to a WWW viewer (such as Netscape or Mosaic) then
|
|
you will also find lots of useful information, including back issues
|
|
of the Samba mailing list, at
|
|
<a href="http://samba.org/samba/">http://samba.org/samba/</a>.
|
|
<p><a name="VERSION"></a>
|
|
<h2>VERSION</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>This man page is correct for version 2.0 of the Samba suite.
|
|
<p><a name="CONTRIBUTIONS"></a>
|
|
<h2>CONTRIBUTIONS</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you wish to contribute to the Samba project, then I suggest you
|
|
join the Samba mailing list at <a href="mailto:samba@samba.org"><em>samba@samba.org</em></a>. See the
|
|
Web page at <a href="http://lists.samba.org/">http://lists.samba.org/</a>
|
|
for details on how to do this.
|
|
<p>If you have patches to submit or bugs to report then you may mail them
|
|
directly to <a href="mailto:samba@samba.org"><em>samba@samba.org</em></a>. Note, however, that due to
|
|
the enormous popularity of this package the Samba Team may take some
|
|
time to respond to mail. We prefer patches in <em>diff -u</em> format.

|
<h2>CREDITS</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Contributors to the project are now too numerous to mention here but
|
|
all deserve the thanks of all Samba users. To see a full list, look at
|
|
<a href="ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/change-log">ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/change-log</a>
|
|
for the pre-CVS changes and at
|
|
<a href="ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/cvs.log">ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/cvs.log</a>
|
|
for the contributors to Samba post-CVS. CVS is the Open Source source
|
|
code control system used by the Samba Team to develop Samba. The
|
|
project would have been unmanageable without it.
|
|
<p>In addition, several commercial organizations now help fund the Samba
|
|
Team with money and equipment. For details see the Samba Web pages at
|
|
<a href="http://samba.org/samba/samba-thanks.html">http://samba.org/samba/samba-thanks.html</a>.

<h2>AUTHOR</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The original Samba software and related utilities were created by
|
|
Andrew Tridgell <a href="mailto:samba@samba.org"><em>samba@samba.org</em></a>. Samba is now developed
|
|
by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the
|
|
Linux kernel is developed.
|
|
<p>The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer. The man page
|
|
sources were converted to YODL format (another excellent piece of Open
|
|
Source software, available at
|
|
<a href="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/"><strong>ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</strong></a>)
|
|
and updated for the Samba2.0 release by Jeremy Allison.
