I think what Boaz was talking about here was is the
fact that the Samba team
(tridge) are talking about porting Samba to the Windows environment for ROS.
My (limited) understanding of this is it would be a 'real' emulation of
cifs/netbt, not samba running in a unix environment via POSIX.
Speak to Steven Edwards or KJK for more info as they were talking to Tridge.
Short term Samba and Samba-Tng are going to be ported to Mingw so they can run on Windows
and
ReactOS. Long term there does need to be a intigration plan. I think we can wrap smbd in a
dummy
Server service but I have not done much research on the intigration part yet. Right now I
just
want to get the damn things built and sharing files. Samba is a lot more besides just the
filesharing module.....Its ms-rpc, network printer spooling, wins and network
winlogin/Active
Directory, etc.....
Thanks
