Synopsis

A tutorial with review questions for Linux system administrators who want their server to share files with Windows clients rather than installing a Windows NT server, for Windows NT system administrators who want to diversify their network with Linux to share the load, and for corporate UNIX system administrators who need to share resources to Windows clients. Gillard, an Australian UNIX and Windows NT consultant, explains installing and configuring the software, solving problems with network setups, sharing files and printers, and using Samba with all current Windows versions. The disk contains the latest source and binaries of Samba and several administrative tools. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Samba Primer Plus helps you integrate Linux/UNIX-based systems with Windows-based systems. Learn the fundamentals and then see how to apply that knowledge to solve common problems.

Complete instructions teach you how to share files, printers and other devices with Windows systems without the laborious steps traditionally used in integrating systems. After reading this book, you will be able to use Samba to integrate Linux/Unix servers into a Windows-based network, integrate Windows desktops into a Linux/Unix-based network, and effectively administer and troubleshoot a heterogeneous network environment.
