[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] Need SMB Info

nunez@TAWC1.EGLIN.AF.MIL ("Nunez, Paul") (10/11/90)

I need information on SMB.  I've seen it referred to as both Server Message
Block protocol and Server Management Block protocol - which is correct?  Where 
can I get more information on what it is and how it works?  

Also, would those of you running in an SMB client/server environment please
pass on information concerning your server product (Company names, phone 
numbers, problems, etc.).  I am especially interested in a comparison of 
Wollongong's SMB server product vs. Syntax's.  Someone told me Syntax's 
product (name unknown) is licensed by Wollongong (is OEM'd the correct term?).
Is this true?

We have 6 uVAX 3600's running VMS 5.3-1 and Wollongong's WIN/TCP for VMS V5.1. 

Please reply to me directly; I'll summarize and post if enough interest.

Thanks,
