-		Announcing Samba version 2.2
-		============================
-
-What is Samba?
---------------
-
-Samba is a SMB file server that runs on Unix and other operating
-systems.  It allows these operating systems (currently Unix, Netware,
-OS/2 and AmigaDOS) to act as a file and print server for SMB and CIFS
-clients. There are many Lan-Manager compatible clients such as
-LanManager for DOS, Windows for Workgroups, Windows NT, Windows 95,
-Linux smbfs, OS/2, Pathworks and more.
-
-The package also includes a SMB client for accessing other SMB servers,
-and an advanced netbios/WINS nameserver for browsing support.
-
-
-What can it do for me?
-----------------------
-
-If you have any PCs running SMB clients, such as a PC running Windows
-for Workgroups, then you can mount file space or printers on a Samba
-host, so that directories, files and printers on the host are
-available on the PC.
-
-If you have any SMB servers such as Windows NT Server, Warp Server or
-Pathworks you may be able to replace them by or supplement them with
-Samba. One of Samba's big strengths is integration, so you can use it
-to tie together your Unix (or VMS etc) hosts and PC clients. If you
-are tired of the insecurity, expense and instability of PCNFS then Samba 
-may be for you.
-
-The client part of the package will also allow you to attach to other
-SMB-based servers (such as windows NT and windows for workgroups) so
-that you can copy files to and from your unix host. The client also
-allows you to access a SMB printer (such as one attached to an OS/2 or
-WfWg server) from Unix, using an entry in /etc/printcap, or by
-explicitly specifying the command used to print files.
-
-
-What are its features?
-------------------------
-
-Samba supports many features that are not supported in other SMB
-implementations (all of which are commercial). These include host as
-well as username/password security, a client, automatic home directory
-exporting, automatic printer exporting, dead connection timeouts,
-umask support, guest connections, name mangling and hidden and system
-attribute mapping. Look at the FAQs included with the package for
-a full list of features.
-
-
-What's new since 2.0?
----------------------
-
-Lots of stuff. See the change log and man pages for details.
-In particular, please check the WHATSNEW.txt file in the root directory
-of each release. This file has current change/update information.
-
-
-Where can I get a client for my PC?
------------------------------------
-
-There is a free client for MS-DOS based PCs available from
-ftp.microsoft.com in the directory bussys/Clients/MSCLIENT/. Please
-read the licencing information before downloading. The add-on 32-bit
-TCP/IP Windows for Workgroups client is also very good. Windows 95/98/ME,
-Windows NT/2000 and OS/2 come with suitable clients by default.
-
-
-What network protocols are supported?
--------------------------------------
-
-Currently only TCP/IP is supported. There has been some discussion
-about ports to other protocols but nothing is yet available.
-
-There is a free TCP/IP implementation for Windows for Workgroups
-available from ftp.microsoft.com (it's small, fast and quite reliable). 
-
-
-How much does it cost?
-----------------------
-
-Samba software is free software. It is available under the
-GNU Public licence in source code form at no cost. Please read the
-file COPYING that comes with the package for more information.
-
-
-What operating systems does it support?
----------------------------------------
-
-The code has been written to be as portable as possible. It has been
-"ported" to many unixes, which mostly required changing only a few
-lines of code. It has been run (to my knowledge) on at least these
-unixes:
-
-Linux, SunOS, Solaris, SVR4, Ultrix, OSF1, AIX, BSDI, NetBSD,
-Sequent, HP-UX, SGI, FreeBSD, NeXT, ISC, A/UX, SCO, Intergraph,
-Silicon Graphics Inc., Domain/OS and DGUX.
-
-Some of these have received more testing than others. If it doesn't
-work with your unix then it should be easy to fix. It has also been ported
-to Netware, OS/2 and the Amiga. A VMS port is available too. See the web site
-for more details.
-
-
-Who wrote it?
--------------
-
-Many people on the internet have contributed to the development of
-Samba. The maintainer and original author is Andrew Tridgell, but
-large parts of the package were contributed by several people from all
-over the world. Please look at the file `change-log' for information
-on who did what bits.
-
-
-Where can I get it?
--------------------
-
-The package is available via anonymous ftp from samba.org in
-the directory pub/samba/. 
-
-
-What about SMBServer?
----------------------
-
-Samba used to be known as SMBServer, until it was pointed out that
-Syntax, who make a commercial Unix SMB based server, have trademarked
-that name. The name was then changed to Samba. Also, in 1992 a very
-early incarnation of Samba was distributed as nbserver.
-
-If you see any copies of nbserver or smbserver on ftp sites please let
-me or the ftp archive maintainer know, as I want to get them deleted.
-
-
-Where can I get more info?
----------------------------
-
-Please join the mailing list if you want to discuss the development or
-use of Samba. To join the mailing list, please read the instructions
-at http://lists.samba.org/
-
-There is also often quite a bit of discussion about Samba on the
-newsgroup comp.protocols.smb.

-A WWW site with lots of Samba info can be found at
