-<h2>NAME</h2>
- Samba - A Windows SMB/CIFS fileserver for UNIX
-<p><a name="SYNOPSIS"></a>
-<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
-
-<strong>Samba</strong>
-<p><a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
-<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.
-<p><a name="COMPONENTS"></a>
-<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>.

-<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.
-<p><a name="CREDITS"></a>
-<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

+.SH "COMPONENTS"
+.PP
+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 samba|[[commat]]|samba.org <URL:mailto:samba@samba.org>
+.SH "AVAILABILITY"
+.PP
+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.
+.PP
+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.
+.PP
+You may also find useful information about Samba
+on the newsgroup comp.protocol.smb <URL:news: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.
+.PP
+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
+http://lists.samba.org <URL:http://lists.samba.org/>.
+.SH "VERSION"
+.PP
+This man page is correct for version 2.2 of the
+Samba suite.
+.SH "CONTRIBUTIONS"
+.PP
+If you wish to contribute to the Samba project,
+then I suggest you join the Samba mailing list at
+http://lists.samba.org <URL:http://lists.samba.org/>.
+.PP
+If you have patches to submit or bugs to report
+then you may mail them directly to samba-patches|[[commat]]|samba.org.
+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 \fBdiff -u\fR format.
+.SH "CONTRIBUTORS"
+.PP
+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 ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/change-log <URL:ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/change-log>
+for the pre-CVS changes and at ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/cvs.log <URL:ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/cvs.log>
+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.
+.PP
+In addition, several commercial organizations now help
+fund the Samba Team with money and equipment. For details see
+the Samba Web pages at http://samba.org/samba/samba-thanks.html <URL:http://samba.org/samba/samba-thanks.html>.
+.SH "AUTHOR"
+.PP
+The original Samba software and related utilities
+were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
+by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
+to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
+.PP
+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
+ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/ <URL:ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/>) and updated for the Samba 2.0
+release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
+Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter
