"The book that Microsoft should have written, but didn't." --Jeremy Allison, Samba Team "Your detailed explanations are clear and backed-up with source code--and the numerous bits of humor make a dry subject very enjoyable to read." --J.D. Lindemann, network engineer, Adaptec, Inc. The first developer's guide to Microsoft(R)'s Internet/Intranet file sharing standard For years, developers and administrators have struggled to understand CIFS, Microsoft's poorly documented standard for Internet file sharing. Finally, there is an authoritative, cross-platform guide to CIFS capabilities and behavior. Implementing CIFS not only delivers the priceless knowledge of a Samba Team member dedicated to investigating the inner workings of CIFS, it also identifies and describes crucial specifications and supporting documents. Provides essential information for designing and debugging large Windows(R) and/or Samba networks Offers clear, in-depth introductions to Server Message Block (SMB), NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NBT), browser services, and authentication Drills down into the internals of CIFS, exposing its behavior on the wire and at the desktop--and its strange quirks Presents illustrative code examples throughout Reflects years of work reviewing obscure documentation, packet traces, and sourcecode Includes the SNIA CIFS Technical Reference Implementing CIFS will be indispensable to every developer who wants to provide CIFS compatibility--and every administrator or security specialist who needs an in-depth understanding of how it really works.

Systems-thinking, a holistic approach that puts the study of wholes before that of parts, is an effective means of dealing with real-world situations. Emphasizing the interrelationships between the system's components rather than the components themselves, systems thinking allows us to increase our personal and professional effectiveness, and transform our organizations. Specifically, systems thinkers are able to conceptually analyze the system without knowing all the details, metaphorically recognizing the forest through the trees. They can see beyond the surface to the deeper patterns that are really responsible for creating behavior. This book provides a wealth of knowledge about systems thinking, enables readers to deeply understand what systems thinking is, and why it is so important in their work. Readers will learn the conceptual foundations of systems thinking, as well as its tools and the proper ways to use them. These tools will facilitate defining problems and designing solutions in an environment increasingly characterized by chaos and complexity. Since systems thinking is not a discipline, but rather an interdisciplinary conceptual framework used in a wide range of areas, this book presents the applications of systems thinking in different domains, including systems engineering, project management, healthcare, psychology and education. The editors, who are experts in the field of systems thinking due to numerous studies they conducted on this subject, have skillfully created a multidimensional view on systems thinking, including theory and practice, research and application, in a wide variety of fields. Therefore, this book will be useful for researches and practitioners, as well as suitable for beginners and specialists alike.
