I don't think it was Netbeui that was referred to, but netbios over tcp/ip, which is different. netbios basically carries the MS junk that Samba talks, and has been shoe-horned over the years to be carried within either netbeiu (yes, I don't know how to spell it either) or IPX or TCP/IP (port 139) and UDP 137-138. >From Win2k, MS used a native tcp/ip implementation on port 445 that they named CIFS, but you can install "netbios over tcp/ip" support for backwards compatibility. So the suggestion from MS may have been quite sensible. I don't know samba's current CIFS support. Don't trust the details here, go to www.samba.org -> documentation -> and follow your nose.
