a LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix

The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that implements the SMB/CIFS protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve files and printers to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients. This protocol is sometimes also referred to as the LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.

This package contains all the components necessary to turn your Debian GNU/Linux box into a powerful file and printer server.

Currently, the Samba Debian packages consist of the following:

 samba - LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix.
 samba-common - Samba common files used by both the server and the client.
 smbclient - LanManager-like simple client for Unix.
 swat - Samba Web Administration Tool
 samba-doc - Samba documentation.
 samba-doc-pdf - Samba documentation in PDF format.
 smbfs - Mount and umount commands for the smbfs (kernels 2.2.x and above).
 libpam-smbpass - pluggable authentication module for SMB/CIFS password
                  database
 libsmbclient - Shared library that allows applications to talk to SMB/CIFS
                servers
 libsmbclient-dev - libsmbclient shared libraries
 winbind - Service to resolve user and group information from Windows NT
           servers

It is possible to install a subset of these packages depending on your particular needs. For example, to access other SMB/CIFS servers you should only need the smbclient and samba-common packages.
