Let's introduce each of them briefly, and show how they work together. The majority of the programs that come with the Samba distribution center on its two daemons. Let's take a refined look at the responsibilities of each daemon:</p><DL CLASS="variablelist"> -<DT CLASS="term"> -<EM CLASS="emphasis"> -smbd</em></dt><DD CLASS="listitem"> -<P CLASS="para"> -The <EM CLASS="emphasis"> -smbd</em> daemon is responsible for managing the shared resources between the Samba server machine and its clients. It provides file, print, and browser services to <SPAN CLASS="acronym"> -SMB</span> clients across one or more networks. <EM CLASS="emphasis"> -smdb</em> handles all notifications between the Samba server and the network clients. In addition, it is responsible for user authentication, resource locking, and data sharing through the <SPAN CLASS="acronym"> -SMB</span> protocol.</p></dd><DT CLASS="term"> -<EM CLASS="emphasis"> -nmbd</em></dt><DD CLASS="listitem"> -<P CLASS="para"> -The <EM CLASS="emphasis"> -nmbd</em> daemon is a simple nameserver that mimics the WINS and NetBIOS name server functionality, as you might expect to encounter with the LAN Manager package. This daemon listens for nameserver requests and provides the appropriate information when called upon. It also provides browse lists for the Network Neighborhood and participates in browsing elections.</p></dd></dl><P CLASS="para"> -The Samba distribution also comes with a small set of Unix command-line tools:</p><DL CLASS="variablelist"> -<DT CLASS="term"> -<i>smbclient</i></dt><DD CLASS="listitem"> -<P CLASS="para"> -An FTP-like Unix client that can be used to connect to Samba shares</p></dd><DT CLASS="term"> -<i>smbtar</i></dt><DD CLASS="listitem"> -<P CLASS="para"> -A program for backing up data in shares, similar to the Unix <I CLASS="filename"> -tar</i> command</p></dd><DT CLASS="term"> -<i>nmblookup</i></dt><DD CLASS="listitem"> -<P CLASS="para"> -A program that provides NetBIOS over TCP/IP name lookups</p></dd><DT CLASS="term"> -<i>smbpasswd</i></dt><DD CLASS="listitem"> -<P CLASS="para"> -A program that allows an administrator to change the encrypted passwords used by Samba</p></dd><DT CLASS="term"> -<i>smbstatus</i></dt><DD CLASS="listitem"> -<P CLASS="para"> -A program for reporting the current network connections to the shares on a Samba server</p></dd><DT CLASS="term"> -<i>testparm</i></dt><DD CLASS="listitem"> -<P CLASS="para"> -A simple program to validate the Samba configuration file</p></dd><DT CLASS="term"> -<i>testprns</i></dt><DD CLASS="listitem"> -<P CLASS="para"> -A program that tests whether various printers are recognized by the <I CLASS="filename"> -smbd</i> daemon</p></dd></dl><P CLASS="para"> -Each significant release of Samba goes through a significant exposure test before it's announced. In addition, it is quickly updated afterward if problems or unwanted side-effects are found.
