and capabilities of the HP CIFS product consists of non-HP books available at most technical

A list of current recommended non-HP Samba documentation is:
• The Official Samba-3 HOWTO and Reference Guide by John H. Terpstra and Jelmer R.
Vernooij, Editors, ISBN: 0-13-145355-6.
• Samba-3 By Example Practical exercises to Successful Deployment by John H. Terpstra,
ISBN: 0-13-147221-6.
• Using Samba, 2nd Edition Robert Eckstein, David Collier-Brown, Peter Kelly and Jay Ts.

Inc., 1998), ISBN: 1-57831-006-7.

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 also 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.
NOTE: Please note that non-HP Samba documentation sometimes includes descriptions of
features and functionality planned for future releases of Samba, or that are only offered on certain
operating system platforms. The authors of these books do not always provide information
indicating which features are in existing releases and which features will be available in future
Samba releases, or are specific to a particular operating system.
