+	The cover artwork of this book continues the freedom theme of the first
+	edition of <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote>. The history of civilization
+	demonstrates the fragile nature of freedom. It can be lost in a moment,
+	and once lost, the cost of recovering liberty can be incredible. The last
+	edition cover featured Alfred the Great who liberated England from the
+	constant assault of Vikings and Norsemen. Events in England that
+	that finally liberated the common people came about in small steps, but
+	the result should not be under-estimated. Today, as always, freedom and
+	liberty are seldom appreciated until they are lost. If we can not quantify
+	what is the value of freedom, we shall be little motivated to protect it.

+	<emphasis>Samba-3 by Example Cover Artwork:</emphasis> The British houses
+	of parliament are a symbol of the Westminster system of government. This form
+	of government permits the people to govern themselves at the lowest level, yet
+	it provides for courts of appeal that are designed to protect freedom and to
+	hold back all forces of tyranny. The clock is a pertinent symbol of the
+	importance of time and place.

+	The information technology industry is being challenged by the imposition of
+	new laws, hostile litigation, and the imposition of significant constraint 
+	of practice that threatens to remove the freedom to develop and deploy open 
+	source software solutions. Samba is a software solution that epitomizes freedom
+	of choice in network interoperability for Microsoft Windows clients.

+	I hope you will take the time needed to deploy it well, and that you may realize
+	the greatest benefits may be obtained. You are free to use it in ways never
+	considered, but in doing so there may be some obstacles. Every obstacle that is
+	overcome adds to the freedom you can enjoy. Use Samba well, and it will serve
+	you well.
