+>The Samba suite is made up of several components. Each

+ recommended that you read the documentation that comes with Samba
+ and the manual pages of those components that you use. If the
+ manual pages aren't clear enough then please send a patch or
+ bug report to <A

+>The Samba software suite is licensed under the
+ GNU Public License(GPL). A copy of that license should
+ have come with the package in the file COPYING. You are
+ encouraged to distribute copies of the Samba suite, but
+ please obey the terms of this license.</P
+><P
+>The latest version of the Samba suite can be
+ obtained via anonymous ftp from samba.org in the

+>You may also find useful information about Samba
+ on the newsgroup <A

+> comp.protocol.smb</A
+> and the Samba mailing
+ list. Details on how to join the mailing list are given in
+ the README file that comes with Samba.</P

+>If you have access to a WWW viewer (such as Netscape
+ or Mosaic) then you will also find lots of useful information,
+ including back issues of the Samba mailing list, at

+>CONTRIBUTORS</H2
+><P
+>Contributors to the project are now too numerous
+ to mention here but all deserve the thanks of all Samba
+ users. To see a full list, look at <A
+HREF="ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/change-log"
+TARGET="_top"
+> ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/change-log</A
+>
+ for the pre-CVS changes and at <A
+HREF="ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/cvs.log"
+TARGET="_top"
+> ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/cvs.log</A
+>
+ for the contributors to Samba post-CVS. CVS is the Open Source
+ source code control system used by the Samba Team to develop
+ Samba. The project would have been unmanageable without it.</P
+><P
+>In addition, several commercial organizations now help
+ fund the Samba Team with money and equipment. For details see

+>The original Samba software and related utilities
+ 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
+HREF="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/"
+TARGET="_top"
+> ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</A

+ release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
+ Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter</P
