Een kleine twee weken na het verschijnen van release candidate 4 is dan gisteren eindelijk de final release van Samba 3.0.0 vrijgegeven. Met behulp van deze software is het bijvoorbeeld mogelijk om bestanden op een Unix-omgeving via een netwerk te delen met computers die met het Windows-besturingssysteem werken. Het changelog ziet er als volgt uit:
