Hvad er SMB, og hvilke problemer giver det?

Det ville være rart at vide hvilket stykke software du taler om!
For, jeg kan hurtigt sige at SMB=Samba i Linux...

Hmmm.........aner det ikke.....

Security
The SMB model defines two levels of security:

Share level. Protection is applied at the share level on a server. Each share can have a password, and a client only needs that password to access all files under that share. This was the first security model that SMB had and is the only security model available in the Core and CorePlus protocols. Windows for Workgroups' vserver.exe implements share level security by default, as does Windows 95.
User Level.Protection is applied to individual files in each share and is based on user access rights. Each user (client) must log in to the server and be authenticated by the server. When it is authenticated, the client is given a UID which it must present on all subsequent accesses to the server. This model has been available since LAN Manager 1.0.

Det er udelukkende Windows 2k jeg snakker om...

Hmmm, det gav ikke det vilde, men lidt fandt jeg dog selv ud af:
SMB stands for Server Message Block. It's a lightweight protocol designed to allow the sharing of files and printers in a small network.

Sikkerhedsproblemet fandt jeg dog ikke, ud over at det altid er et problem at dele ressources...
