Introduktion

For at anvende Ubuntu systemer sammen med Windows klienter er det nødvendigt at anvende tjenester som er kendte af Windows miljøet. Sådanne tjenester hjælper til med at dele data og information om de computere og brugere der er sluttet til netværket. Disse tjenester kan opdeles i tre store kategorier:

Fortunately, your Ubuntu system may provide all such facilities to Windows clients and share network resources among them. One of the principle pieces of software your Ubuntu system includes for Windows networking is the SAMBA suite of SMB server applications and tools. This section of the Ubuntu Server Guide will briefly introduce the installation and limited configuration of the SAMBA suite of server applications and utilities. Additional, detailed documentation and information on SAMBA is beyond the scope of this documentation, but exists on the SAMBA website.
