NAME

- Samba - A Windows SMB/CIFS fileserver for UNIX -

SYNOPSIS

- -Samba -

DESCRIPTION

- -

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. -

COMPONENTS

- -

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@samba.org. -

smbd

The smbd -(8) 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 -smb.conf (5). -

nmbd

The nmbd -(8) daemon provides NetBIOS nameserving and browsing -support. The configuration file for this daemon is described in -smb.conf (5). -

smbclient

The smbclient -(1) program implements a simple ftp-like -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). -

testparm

The testparm -(1) utility allows you to test your smb.conf -(5) configuration file. -

testprns

the testprns -(1) utility allows you to test the printers defined -in your printcap file. -

smbstatus

The smbstatus -(1) utility allows you list current connections to the -smbd (8) server. -

nmblookup

the -nmblookup (1) utility allows NetBIOS name -queries to be made from the UNIX machine. -

make_smbcodepage

The -make_smbcodepage (1) utility allows -you to create SMB code page definition files for your smbd -(8) server. -

smbpasswd

The smbpasswd -(8) utility allows you to change SMB encrypted -passwords on Samba and Windows NT(tm) servers. -

AVAILABILITY

- -

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. -

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. -

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. -

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://samba.org/samba/. -

VERSION

- -

This man page is correct for version 2.0 of the Samba suite. -

CONTRIBUTIONS

- -

If you wish to contribute to the Samba project, then I suggest you -join the Samba mailing list at samba@samba.org. See the -Web page at http://lists.samba.org/ -for details on how to do this. -

If you have patches to submit or bugs to report then you may mail them -directly to samba@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 diff -u format. -

CREDITS

- -

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 -for the pre-CVS changes and at -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. -

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. -

AUTHOR

- -

The original Samba software and related utilities were created by -Andrew Tridgell samba@samba.org. Samba is now developed -by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the -Linux kernel is developed. -

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/) -and updated for the Samba2.0 release by Jeremy Allison. -samba@samba.org. - - +samba
