+Samba is a suite of programs which work together to allow clients to
+access to a server's filespace and printers via the SMB (Server
+Message Block) protocol.
+
+In practice, this means that you can redirect disks and printers to
+Unix disks and printers from Lan Manager clients, Windows for
+Workgroups 3.11 clients, Windows NT clients, Linux clients and OS/2
+clients. There is also a generic Unix client program supplied as part
+of the suite which allows Unix users to use an ftp-like interface to
+access filespace and printers on any other SMB servers. This gives the
+capability for these operating systems to behave much like a LAN
+Server or Windows NT Server machine, only with added functionality and
+flexibility designed to make life easier for administrators.
+
+And this is modified version deveopled by Samba Users Group Japan, and
+support I18N for SWAT and use of localized charcter encoding (Japanese).
