17:h1.Introduction
18:p.
19Samba is a SMB/CIFS protocols file and print sharing server/client set originaly
20made for UNIX world to cooperate with corresponding Windows and &os. servers or
21clients. &os. has a native implementation of SMB/CIFS server/client set - IBM LAN
22Manager and IBM Peer. These products haven&csq.t been updated for a long time and
23have some compatibility problems with modern Windows SMB/CIFS implementations.
24:p.
25This package is the &os. port of Samba client made as the plugin to &nd.
26 - a well known virtual file system for &os.. &os. Samba client provides
27seamles access to SMB/CIFS file shares over your network using TCP/IP as the
28underlying transport protocol.
29:p.
30The &os. Samba client consists of two modules&colon.
31:ul.
32:li.ndpsmb.dll - the NetDrive plugin itself.
33:li.smbcd.exe - the Samba client daemon, which actually processes the requests from ndpsmb.dll. (not used anymore since v 1.5.0)
34:eul.

88:h2 res=101.&usage.
89:p.
90To mount the exact server&csq.s share one need to specify both &csq.server&csq. and
91&csq.share&csq. parametres, the other parametres are optional. The root path of
92server&csq.s share will be mounted to the mounting path.
93:p.
94If one want to access all server shares, then only the &csq.server&csq., not the &csq.share&csq.
95parameter, should be specified,the other parametres are optional. The list of
96server shares will be mounted to the mounting path.
97:p.
98If one want to access all servers within the workgroup, then only the &csq.workgroup&csq.,
99not the &csq.server&csq. parameter, should be specified, the other parametres are
100optional. The list of servers within the specified workgroup will be mounted to
101the mounting path.
102:p.
103If one want to access all available workgroups within one master browser
104within the network, then only the &csq.master&csq., not the &csq.workgroup&csq. nor the &csq.server&csq. parameter,
105should be specified, the other parameters are optional. The list of workgroups
106will be mounted to the mounting path. The &csq.master&csq. workgroup can be any known
107workgroup in the net. The &csq.master&csq. server should be the master browser for
108workgroup[s].
109:p.
110By default the &csq.guest&csq. user with blank password is used to access selected
111resources. If you get access denied errors, try to specify another user and
112password combination.
