The server provides filespace and printer services to clients using the SMB (or CIFS) protocol\&. This is compatible with the LanManager protocol, and can service LanManager clients\&. These include MSCLIENT 3\&.0 for DOS, Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95/98/ME, Windows NT, Windows 2000, OS/2, DAVE for Macintosh, and smbfs for Linux\&. .PP An extensive description of the services that the server can provide is given in the man page for the configuration file controlling the attributes of those services (see @@ -192,47 +42,47 @@ manual page should be regarded as mandatory reading before proceeding with insta A session is created whenever a client requests one\&.
