developed by Microsoft and intended for 
Windows. Through CIFS, files can be 
transferred and shared between Windows 
clients.

systems are public directories and can be 
accessed by all authorized users. If you 
want to set a private directory, enable 
Homedir so that each user can only access 
the directory that share the same user name 
with the user.
