HP CIFS Server 3.0b Administrator's Guide version A.02.01.01

Introduction to the HP CIFS Server
The Open Source Software (OSS) Samba Suite
Chapter 16
Samba Documentation: Printed and Online
When using the HP CIFS product, HP recommends that you refer to The
Samba HOWTO Collection and Samba-3 by Example, shipped with the
product in the /opt/samba/docs directory. The book, Using Samba, 2nd
Edition, can also be found in /opt/samba/swat/using_samba. All three
books are available through Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT).
IMPORTANT The book Using Samba, 2nd Edition describes a previous version of
Samba (V.2.0.4). However, much of the information in Using Samba, 2nd
Edition 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.
HP CIFS Server Administrator’s Guide is also available on the
http://www.docs.hp.com web site.
