Samba is a driver for serving and be a client for Windows for workgroups
and NT lan (microsoft lan manager). You can share your printers, disks 
and connect to others (WFW). you have app for reading and write which are 
built like ftp, and you have also driver for mounting on other's disks 
(smbfs, ksmbfs). I know it's making some problems when tring to read 
other's disks from DOSEMU and it also not so stable. I never tried the 
serving part of samba.
