"SAMBA is a SMB/CIFS protocols file and print sharing server/client set 
originally
made for UNIX world to cooperate with corresponding Windows and OS/2 servers or
clients. OS/2 has native implementation of SMB/CIFS server/client set - IBM LAN
Manager and IBM Peer. These products haven't been updated for a long time and
have some compatibility problems with modern Windows SMB/CIFS implementations.

This package is the OS/2 port of SAMBA 3.0.9 client made as the plugin to
NetDrive - a well known virtual file system for OS/2. OS/2 SAMBA client 
provides
seamles access to SMB/CIFS file shares over your network using TCP/IP as the
underlying transport protocol.

The OS/2 SAMBA client consists of two modules:
    ndpsmb.dll - the NetDrive plugin itself.
    smbcd.exe  - the SAMBA client daemon, which actually processes the requests
                 from ndpsmb.dll."

Samba Client NetDrive plugin updated:

Bugs should be reported to the XTracker at:

According to the web site  comments about SAMBA Client for OS/2 and eCS 
should be posted to the OS/2 newsgroup comp.os.os2.beta.
