Conclusion


Much as Linux users would like to pretend that Microsoft doesn't exist, you have to realize that (for now) you live in a Windows world. Samba makes coexistence that much easier because it allows Linux users to access resources on Windows machines, and even makes resources available on a Linux box to users of other operating systems. Microsoft might not like it very much, but Samba is a mature, stable, powerful technology, and thanks to its open-source nature, it has helped bring the entire world of computing more closely together. Samba helps you reduce the need for Windows servers in homes and businesses, and that, as a certain doyenne might say, is a good thing.
