- Documentation and FAQ
-
- Docs and FAQ files for the Samba suite of software.

- required.
-
- The FAQ is being added to on an ad hoc basis, see the web pages for info.

- Netbeui support
-
- This aimed to produce patches so that Samba can be used with clients
- that do not have TCP/IP. It will try to remain as portable as possible.
- Contact Brian.Onn@Canada.Sun.COM (Brian Onn) Unfortunately it died, and
- although a lot of people have expressed interest nobody has come forward
- to do it. The Novell port (see Samba web pages) includes NetBEUI
- functionality in a proprietrary library which should still be helpful as
- we have the interfaces. Alan Cox (a.cox@li.org) has the information
- required to write the state machine if someone is going to do the work.
