<UL>
<LI>1984 Initial SMB Specification Published by IBM based on the work of Dr. Bary Feigenbaum and team
<LI>1985-1992 SMB Protocol extended by IBM, 3Com, Intel and Microsoft, and becomes the default filesystem protocol for DOS, OS/2 and Windows operating systems among others.
<LI>1992 X/Open publishes an updated version of the SMB standard: Protocols for X/Open PC Interworking: SMB Version 2 (CAE 209)
<LI>1994-1995 IBM Extends SMB to include support for DCE/Kerberos
- <LI>1996 With the slow speed of HTTP for certain workloads, two key network filesystem protocols begin to become more "internet friendly." Sun announces WebNFS and Microsoft extends and renames SMB (announcing CIFS - "The Common Internet File System Protocol." More formal documentation is developed describing the complex SMB/CIFS protocol in detail.
- <LI>1996-2006 Annual CIFS Deveper Conferences are held to improve on interoperability.
