Can someone explain what is Server Message Block (SMB) and how it works? or What is Server Message Bl

Wow, thanks for all the replies! Didn’t realize what is Server Message Block could do so much—files, printers, even security stuff.

Gonna try setting up Samba on my Raspberry Pi this weekend.

Quick Q: Anyone know if SMB works over the internet, or is it just for local networks?

Also, those Wireshark and smbclient tips sound awesome—definitely checking those out.

Thanks again!
