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.
This version of samba handles Japanese. Take a look at Samba Users
Group Japan's WWW page for this feature:

*===* Security Notes *===*
The users' encrypted passwords stored in ${ETCDIR}/private/smbpasswd
(default: /etc/samba/private/smbpasswd) *ARE PASSWORD EQUIVALENT*
from the viewpoint of SMB protocol. Do not weaken the permission
mode of this file (default: root.wheel and rw-------) without any
special reasons. And please note that even if you pkg_delete this
port, pkg_delete will *NOT* remove the smbpasswd file because
pkg_delete can be used for upgrading this package. If you won't use
this package anymore, I strongly recommend that you remove the
smbpasswd file manually.
