kandi X-RAY | samba Summary

samba is a C library. samba has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

This is a big question. The very short answer is that it is the protocol by which a lot of PC-related machines share files and printers and other information such as lists of available files and printers. Operating systems that support this natively include Windows 9x, Windows NT (and derivatives), OS/2, Mac OS X and Linux. Add on packages that achieve the same thing are available for DOS, Windows 3.1, VMS, Unix of all kinds, MVS, and more. Some Web Browsers can speak this protocol as well (smb://). Alternatives to SMB include Netware, NFS, Appletalk, Banyan Vines, Decnet etc; many of these have advantages but none are both public specifications and widely implemented in desktop machines by default. The Common Internet File system (CIFS) is what the new SMB initiative is called. For details watch
