Hi, Cameron. In my experience, nothing comes even close to the O'Reilly SAMBA book, which is in its second edition (at least), and has been posted (legitimately) on-line for access without charge. The first edition of the book enabled me to work with SAMBA in my home LAN about five years ago. Then I had no need for SAMBA for a while, and so I forgot everything I learned and needed to start from the ground-up about a year ago. That is when I discovered the second edition, and found it to be very much better than the first edition (though the first edition was adequate). The second edition provides virtually step-by-step instructions. I hate Window$ with a passion, but the O'Reilly SAMBA book took the pain out of the experience.
