The Network Basic I/O System (NetBIOS) NetBIOS was developed in
the early 1980s to allow applications to communicate over a
network. The TCP/IP version called NetBIOSoverTCP/IP(NetBT),
was developed to support communications between symbolically
named stations and transfer of arbitrary data.NetBT supports all
three services (Name, Datagram and Session) supported by NetBIOS.
The Server Message Block (SMB) is a presentation layer protocol
providing file and print sharing functions for LAN Manager, and
other network operating systems.
SMB over NetBT session is not clearly explained in the RFCs
[Netbios concepts] and [Netbios specification] and this document
attempts to provide information on this.
This document is intended for documentation purpose and for
informational use only.This document does not attempt to define
a standard, rather tries explaining an existing implementation.
This document puts together pieces of information scattered in
multiple documents and offers a single complete documentation
for this specific application (smb over NetBT).
