You have The Samba Tutorial, in the very site of Samba. I think is
the best one.

You can also use Webmin to configure Samba, it's a good way of doing
it, even when I prefer to do it by hand.

ESPAŅA
The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn
like fabulous yellow Roman candles.
