[vox-announce] July 5 Linux Users' Group of Davis: Wine and Samba Integration

[nbs]

The Linux Users' Group of Davis (LUGOD), will be holding a meeting on:

  Tuesday
  July 5, 2005
  6:30pm - 9:00pm


The meeting will be held at:

  Davis Public Library
  Blanchard meeting room
  315 East 14th St.
  Davis, California 95616


The topic will be:

  "Wine and Samba Integration Possibilities"
  presented by: Juan Lang

    Wine ( http://www.winehq.com/ ) is an Open Source implementation
    of the Windows API on top of Unix and Linux.  It is a compatibility layer
    for running Windows programs -- it does not require Microsoft Windows,
    as it is a completely free alternative implementation of the Windows
    interface, consisting of 100% non-Microsoft code.  Wine allows many
    Windows programs to run on Linux, without modification.

    Samba ( http://us1.samba.org/samba/ ) is an Open Source software suite
    that provides file and print services to all manner of SMB/CIFS clients,
    such as Microsoft Windows.

    This talk will cover how the two projects can work together.

  About the Speaker:

    Juan Lang has been a Samba user since before Linux was 1.0, and a
    Wine hacker for the past few years.  He has been cheerleading for more
    cooperation between the two projects, and this is an updated version of
    the talk he gave at this year's WineConf in Stuttgart, Germany.

    Juan has been a professional coder for over a decade.  In addition to
    being a Wine hacker, he is a PhD student at UCDavis, conducting
    research in viruses and malware.
