+ <span class="emphasis"><em>Samba-3 by Example</em></span> would not have been written except
+ as a result of feedback provided by reviewers and readers of the book <span class="emphasis"><em>The
+ Official Samba-3 HOWTO and Reference Guide.</em></span> This second edition
+ was made possible by generous feedback from Samba users. I hope this book
+ more than answers the challenge and needs of many more networks that are
+ languishing for a better networking solution.
+ </p><p>
+ I am deeply indebted to a large group of diligent people. Space prevents
+ me from listing all of them, but a few stand out as worthy of mention.
+ Jelmer Vernooij made the notable contribution of building the XML production
+ environment and thereby made possible the typesetting of this book.
+ </p><p>
+ Samba would not have come into existence if Andrew Tridgell had not taken
+ the first steps. He continues to lead the project. Under the shadow of his
+ mantle are some great folks who never give up and are always ready to help.
+ Thank you to: Jeremy Allison, Jerry Carter, Andrew Bartlett, Jelmer Vernooij,
+ Alexander Bokovoy, Volker Lendecke, and other team members who answered my
+ continuous stream of questions all of which resulted in improved content
+ in this book.
+ </p><p>
+ My heartfelt thanks go out also to a small set of reviewers (alphabetically
+ listed) who gave substantial feedback and significant suggestions for improvement:
+ Tony Earnshaw, William Enestvedt, Eric Hines, Roland Gruber, Gavin Henry,
+ Steven Henry, Luke Howard, Tarjei Huse, Jon Johnston, Alan Munter, Mike MacIsaac,
+ Scott Mann, Ed Riddle, Geoff Scott, Santos Soler, Misty Stanley-Jones, Mark Taylor,
+ and Jérôme Tournier.
+ </p><p>
+ My appreciation is extended to a team of more than 30 additional reviewers who
+ helped me to find my way around dark corners.
+ </p><p>
+ Particular mention is due to Lyndell, Amos, and Melissa who gave me the
+ latitude necessary to spend nearly an entire year writing Samba documentation,
+ and then gave more so this second edition could be created.
