Subject:  [VOICENWS] SW: SAMBA Client beta for OS/2 and eCS


From: OS2World.com <http://www.os2world.com> 

Hi OS/2 and eCS community!

We are proud to announce the first public beta version of SAMBA Client for
OS/2 and eCS. It is available as a plugin for NetDrive Filesystem and it
allows you to mount SMB or CIFS shares on OS/2 without the need of NetBIOS
(IBM LAN Manager or IBM Peer).

Samba is freely available under the GNU General Public License. You can
download the full OS/2 sourcecode including NetDrive plugin from our CVS
respository.

Samba for OS/2 is just possible because netlabs.org hired nickk for
porting it. For us this is also an experiment and we really hope that the
OS/2 and eCS community honors this effort. Please read our document about
our open source philosophy and support us with sponsoring units if you can
afford it.

We plan to provide a SAMBA Server for OS/2 and eCS as well but this highly
depends on the support of the OS/2 and eCS community. We cannot afford
that alone.

Homepage of the project: <http://samba.netlabs.org/>
A few words about sponsoring at netlabs.org:

Please read the homepage for more details and for questions about support,
do *not* mail me directly! Thanks.

Enjoy!
