were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed

by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar

to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</p><p>The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer.
|
|
The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another

|
excellent piece of Open Source software, available at <a class="ulink" href="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/" target="_top">
|
|
ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</a>) and updated for the Samba 2.0
|
|
release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
|
|
Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter. The conversion to DocBook XML 4.2
|
|
for Samba 3.0 was done by Alexander Bokovoy.</p></div></div></body></html>
