14 Description: a LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix
15 The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that
16 implements the SMB protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve
17 files and printers to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients. This protocol
18 is sometimes also referred to as the LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.
20 This package contains all the components necessary to turn your
21 Debian GNU/Linux box into a powerful file and printer server.
23 Currently, the Samba Debian packages consist of the following:
25 samba - LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix.
26 samba-common - Samba common files used by both the server and the client.
27 smbclient - LanManager-like simple client for Unix.
28 swat - Samba Web Administration Tool
29 samba-doc - Samba documentation.
30 smbfs - Mount and umount commands for the smbfs (kernels 2.2.x and above).
31 libpam-smbpass - pluggable authentication module for SMB password database
32 libsmbclient - Shared library that allows applications to talk to SMB servers
33 libsmbclient-dev - libsmbclient shared libraries
34 winbind: Service to resolve user and group information from Windows NT servers
35 python2.2-samba: Python bindings that allow access to various aspects of Samba
37 It is possible to install a subset of these packages depending on
38 your particular needs. For example, to access other SMB servers you
39 should only need the smbclient and samba-common packages.

45 Description: Samba common files used by both the server and the client
46 The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that
47 implements the SMB protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve
48 files and printers to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients. This protocol
49 is sometimes also referred to as the LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.
51 This package contains the common files that are used by both the server
52 (provided in the samba package) and the client (provided in the smbclient

61 Description: a LanManager-like simple client for Unix
62 The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that
63 implements the SMB protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve
64 files and printers to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients. This protocol
65 is sometimes also referred to as the LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.
67 This package contains some client components of the Samba suite. In
68 particular it includes the command line utilities smbclient, smbtar,
69 and smbspool. If you want to mount shares exported from Microsoft
70 Windows machines or a Samba server you must install the smbfs package.
74 Depends: debconf, samba (= ${Source-Version}), ${shlibs:Depends}
76 Description: Samba Web Administration Tool
77 The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that
78 implements the SMB protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve
79 files and printers to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients. This protocol
80 is sometimes also referred to as the LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.
82 This package contains the components of the Samba suite that are needed
83 for Web administration of the Samba server.
85 Note: if you want to use the on-line documentation that is accesible
86 through the Swat front-end you must install the samba-doc package.
91 Description: Samba documentation
92 The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that
93 implements the SMB protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve
94 files and printers to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients. This protocol
95 is sometimes also referred to as the LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.
97 This package contains all the documentation that comes in the original

107 Conflicts: smbfsx, suidmanager (<< 0.50)
108 Description: mount and umount commands for the smbfs (for kernels >= than 2.2.x)
109 Smbfs is a filesystem which understands the SMB protocol.
110 This is the protocol Windows for Workgroups, Windows NT or
111 LAN Manager use to talk to each other. It was inspired by
112 samba, the program by Andrew Tridgell that turns any unix
113 site into a file server for DOS or Windows clients.
115 If you want to use command-line utilities like smbclient, smbtar
116 and/or smbspool you just need to install the smbclient package.
118 Starting with the Debian Samba packages version 2.2.0-1, the old smbfs
119 utilities for 2.0.x have been removed. There are no wrapper scripts
120 that call a specific smbmount/smbumount depending on the kernel
121 version. If you are using a 2.0.x kernel please upgrade or use the
122 latest Samba 2.0.7 Debian package.
124 Package: libpam-smbpass
128 Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}
130 Description: pluggable authentication module for SMB password database
131 This is a stackable PAM module that allows a system administrator to easily
132 migrate to using encrypted passwords for Samba and to keep smb passwords in
133 sync with unix passwords. Unlike other solutions, it does this without
134 requiring users to change their existing passwords or login to Samba using
137 Package: libsmbclient
141 Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}
142 Description: shared library that allows applications to talk to SMB servers
143 libsmbclient allows to write applications that use the SMB protocol.
144 This gives applications the ability to talk to Microsoft Windows servers
145 and Unix servers running Samba.
147 This package contains the libsmbclient shared library.
149 Package: libsmbclient-dev
153 Depends: libsmbclient (= ${Source-Version})
154 Description: libsmbclient static libraries and headers
155 libsmbclient allows to write applications that use the SMB protocol.
156 This gives applications the ability to talk to Microsoft Windows servers
157 and Unix servers running Samba.
159 This package contains the libsmbclient static libraries and headers
160 needed to build applications that use SMB services.
166 Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}
167 Replaces: samba (<= 2.2.3-2)
168 Description: service to resolve user and group information from Windows NT servers
169 This package provides the winbindd daemon, which provides a
170 service for the Name Service Switch capability that is present
171 in most modern C libraries (like the GNU C Library - glibc.)
173 The service provided by winbindd is called `winbind' and
174 can be used to resolve user and group information from a
175 Windows NT server. The service can also provide authentication
176 services via an associated PAM module.
178 Package: python2.2-samba
182 Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, python2.2
183 Description: Python bindings that allow access to various aspects of Samba
184 The Samba Python bindings allow you to access various aspects of Samba.
185 At the moment their status is "experimental" but they have been reported
188 See /usr/share/doc/python2.2-samba/examples for a couple of examples.
