HP CIFS Server 2.2i Administrator's Guide version A.01.11.01
Introduction to the HP CIFS Server
The Open Source Software (OSS) Samba Suite
Chapter 1 7
Samba Documentation: Printed and Online
When using the HP CIFS product, HP recommends that you refer to
Using Samba, by Robert Eckstein, David Collier-Brown and Peter Kelly
along with the supplemental HP CIFS product documentation available
in the /opt/samba/docs directory shipped with the product. Using
Samba is shipped with the HP CIFS Server and can be found in
/opt/samba/swat/using_samba. Starting with this release, it will be
available through SWAT.
IMPORTANT The book Using Samba describes a previous version of Samba (V.2.0.4).
However, much of the information in Using Samba is applicable to this
version of the CIFS Server. Readers should always use the HP-provided
Samba man pages or the SWAT help facility for the most definitive
information on the HP CIFS server.
Installing and Administering the HP CIFS Server will also be available
on the http://www.docs.hp.com/hpux/communications web site.
