Synopsis

The Definitive Guide to Samba 3 is a thorough tutorial and reference to Samba 3.0, the forthcoming revision of the networking and client/server software package that allows non-Windows machines (such as Unix, Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS X, and Solaris) to seamlessly interoperate and reciprocally share resources such as files, printers, and data services with Microsoft Windows. This book describes how to configure and maintain a network of heterogeneous machines, all interconnected with Samba. Professional system administrators can use this book as well as advanced hobbyists who want to network Unix, Linux, FreeBSD, and Mac OS X computers with Windows computers. Using Samba, any of those machines can be centralized servers to any other machine. The book includes the latest release of Mac OS X named Panther.
