          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.

          ssssmmmmbbbbdddd The ssssmmmmbbbbdddd 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 _s_m_b._c_o_n_f

          nnnnmmmmbbbbdddd The nnnnmmmmbbbbdddd daemon provides NetBIOS nameserving and
               browsing support. The configuration file for this
               daemon is described in _s_m_b._c_o_n_f

          ssssmmmmbbbbcccclllliiiieeeennnntttt
               The ssssmmmmbbbbcccclllliiiieeeennnntttt 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).

          tttteeeessssttttppppaaaarrrrmmmm
               The tttteeeessssttttppppaaaarrrrmmmm utility is a simple syntax checker for
               Samba's _s_m_b._c_o_n_fconfiguration file.

          tttteeeessssttttpppprrrrnnnnssss
               The tttteeeessssttttpppprrrrnnnnssss utility supports testing printer names
               defined in your _p_r_i_n_t_c_a_p> file used by Samba.

          ssssmmmmbbbbssssttttaaaattttuuuussss
               The ssssmmmmbbbbssssttttaaaattttuuuussss tool provides access to information about
               the current connections to ssssmmmmbbbbdddd.

          nnnnmmmmbbbbllllooooooookkkkuuuupppp
               The nnnnmmmmbbbbllllooooooookkkkuuuupppp tools allows NetBIOS name queries to be
               made from a UNIX host.

          mmmmaaaakkkkeeee____ssssmmmmbbbbccccooooddddeeeeppppaaaaggggeeee
               The mmmmaaaakkkkeeee____ssssmmmmbbbbccccooooddddeeeeppppaaaaggggeeee utility provides a means of
               creating SMB code page definition files for your ssssmmmmbbbbdddd
               server.

               The ssssmmmmbbbbppppaaaasssssssswwwwdddd command is a tool for changing LanMan and
               Windows NT password hashes on Samba and Windows NT
               servers.

          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
          <URL:mailto:samba@samba.org>

          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.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.

          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/>.

          This man page is correct for version 2.2 of the Samba suite.

          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/>.

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

          Contributors to the project are now too numerous to mention

          log <URL:ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/change-log> for the
          pre-CVS changes and at

          <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.

          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

          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.

          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
