Samba, the open-source suite of programs that connect Windows and Linux computers, is getting a face-lift with the release of Samba 4.0.0 TP 1. The release which is a pre-alpha, "technology preview", allows testers to use a Linux server to handle file and print sharing plus network logins. Windows servers are still needed to initially set up the accounts, but the Samba team says the new version can serve as a decent backup or to take the load off the main server.
