[J65nko]

From http://www.appleinsider.com/articles..._services.html

The upcoming release of Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Server will remove the formerly bundled open source Samba software and replace it with Apple's own tools for Windows file sharing and network directory services

..... the Samba team has moved active development of the project to the more strict GPLv3 license, which prevents Apple from using the software commercially.
