    Successfully networking your Ubuntu system with Windows clients involves providing and integrating with services 
 
72
    common to Windows environments. Such services assist the sharing of data and information about the computers 
 
73
    and users involved in the network, and may be classified under three major categories of functionality:

      Fortunately, your Ubuntu system may provide all such facilities to Windows clients and share network resources 
 
101
      among them.  One of the principal pieces of software your Ubuntu system includes for Windows networking is the Samba 
 
102
      suite of SMB server applications and tools.

      This section of the <span>Ubuntu</span> Server Guide will introduce some of the common Samba use cases, and how to 
 
106
      install and configure the necessary packages.  Additional detailed documentation and information on Samba can be found
