内容简介

Samba is an open source suite of tools that provides seamless file and print services to SMB/CIFStools for connecting Windows and Unix systems, Samba is also a good tool for connecting Unix systems to other Unix systems. And now that Samba comes with Mac OS X, too, it's becoming a "one source" solution for networking all types of operating systems. This is a comprehensive guide to Samba administration. This second edition covers all versions of Samba from 2.0 to 2.2, including selected features from an alpha version of 3.0, as well as the SWAT graphical configuration tool. Updated for Windows 2000, ME, and XP, the book also explores Samba's new role as a secondary domain controller, its support for the use of Windows 2000 security on the host Unix system, and its integration with SSL security. The book begins with an introduction to Windows networking concepts that will help you quickly understand how it works, how it is similar to Unix networking, and how it differs. The first chapters will guide you through the process of installing Samba, configuring Windows clients, and implementing a Windows domain. Subsequent chapters show you how to configure additional services and fine-tune the operation of the Samba server. You'll learn how to: configure, compile, and install Samba from the latest source distribution; and printer sharing; set up Samba to operate in a Windows domain environment; access Windows file shares from Unix-Configure Samba to offer file sharing, printer sharing, Windows NT domain authentication, Microsoft Dfs service, network master browser service, WINS name service and SMB time service.
