What's the difference between samba and rumba?  I spotted one message in 
the arhive that claimed rumba was the opposite of samba.  I know that 
samba allows a FreeBSD box to share file systems with a Microsoft box.  
Does that mean rumba allows MS file systems to be accessed by FreeBSD 
boxes?

Also, I've seen references to smbmount, and *claims* that that it is 
available within the samba port.  I've found 
/usr/ports/net/samba/work/samba-1.9.18p8/source/smbmount.c, but don't know 
how to compile it.  I tried "make smbmount", but received the following 
msg:

su-2.02#  make smbmount
Compiling smbmount.c
smbmount.c:26: linux/version.h: No such file or directory
smbmount.c:29: #error this code will only compile on versions of linux 
after 2.1.70
smbmount.c:33: linux/smb_fs.h: No such file or directory
*** Error code 1

Stop.


It looks to me as if this is for linux only.

Is there a way to access Microsoft file systems from FreeBSD?
