.PP
-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). For a
-more thorough description, see http://www.ubiqx.org/cifs/ <URL:http://www.ubiqx.org/cifs/>. Samba also implements the NetBIOS
-protocol in nmbd.
-.TP
-\fBsmbd(8)\fR
-The \fBsmbd\fR daemon provides the file and print services to
-SMB clients, such as Windows 95/98, Windows NT, Windows
-for Workgroups or LanManager. The configuration file
-for this daemon is described in \fBsmb.conf\fR(5)
-.TP
-\fBnmbd(8)\fR
