Made the changes.  Please check it over if I made a mistake.  
I tried very
 hard to address everyone's concerns. 
I decided not to delve too deeply into setting up rights for the users. 

Yes that part is confusing see below...
 
I felt that was beyond the scope of the article and was easy enough to 
learn on your own.  
My desire is to provide the NOT-SO-EASY to find documentation.

setsebool –P samba_domain_controller on
Take this out or there needs to be a seperate page referring howto make
a samba domain controller with winbindd
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/SambaDomainControler I can help with
writing it. Any Takers with exp? This is a Win NT Style Domain. The only
way as in MACHINENAME\USERNAME Or an option is to wait for Samba to
totaly emulate a Win 2000 Active Directory Domain Controler.

4. Step 4: Adding Users

Now that we have security taken care of, it's time to add users. For
this example, I'm going to create a user named dave (which happens to be
my name)

useradd dave -d /mnt/data/home/dave

(Notice the -d command). This creates my home directory on the new data
drive AWAY from the operating system. Now you have the best of both
worlds.

It is recommended that you establish these rights for each user.

**Ok this is contradicting to what you said above. Useradd does this or
Adduser or the System-**Config-Adduser will do this.

chown (user): (user) /mnt/data/home/(user)
chown dave:dave /mnt/data/home/dave

So these two commands are not needed if this is used -
useradd dave -d /mnt/data/home/dave

Confusing - 
chmod 770 -R /mnt/data  0750 should be enough ???

Should not be be needed *IF* users are added in this fashion -
useradd dave -d /mnt/data/home/dave

The last action (smbpasswd) adds the passwd to the smbpasswd database.
The actual password file has changed over the years. The latest is
passtb.tdb but its original name was smbpasswd. You can see the
confusion with a command having the same name as a file!

This can be amended to say also that the *tdb data bases can be backed
up and restored.

Sorry, what I meant was to write articles that provided information that was 
not so
easily obtained. I didn't want to include a lot of detail on chmod and setting 
up the rights of the users
because I felt other articles had already addressed that concern.  However,
if you want me to include more information...I would be happy to do so.

Thank you so much.  I would also like to add a CUPS command line tutorial.
This means how to use lpadmin, lpstat, etc and setup CUPS as a server.
I am NOT done with it yet but will contact you.  I found the documentation
on cups is horrible.  It's taken a lot of research and finally a book
by one of the authors of cups.  CUPS is AMAZING in what you can do -- once you 
understand it.

Dave,

Looks pretty good to me.  A minor point, from
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Wiki/Editing :
Guidelines considering style
  * Avoid the use of the first person singular (I,
mine etc.) in
pages, since it is of little use to the reader, and it looks a
tad unprofessional. If you have to refer to yourself or someone
else, refer to his/her Wiki page with contact information (or
just the full name if that person does not have a page on this
Wiki). 

Might want to take that into account.

I took the liberty of making a couple of cosmetic changes to the format
- Fixed Step 2 to look like steps 1,3,4 and changed your name to your
WikiName - per above guidelines.

Are we ready to make the link from the HowTos page?

Thanks for the contribution!
Works for me.  I'll avoid the 'I' and change that.

smbpasswd -a dave adds the user to the smbusers file so you do not have
to edit /etc/samba/smbuser. So therefore you don't need the section

 Perhaps, we should put Windows-related wiki articles into some place?

Possibly So. Would be better all under one directory.

Maby on your Notes on that page it would best be if you put there when
using auto mount that whatever is in /mnt will dissapear.

The link below is for NFS Services on Windows. Have a look at it for
maybe an inclusion to the tips and tricks assessing nfs on win$.
Although the user would have to have Server 2008 configured.

Yes.

I prefer not to since this invites privacy issues.  Is there a way around that?

No. Sorry *all* contributors have to obey the rules or not contribute.

http://wiki.centos.org/

IIRC (as it's something I've only done once) the link is at the top RH
of that page . . .

One other thing Dave, please don't top-post. :-) (It's in the m/l rules.)

Thanks for the link Akemi. I give it a A-. One problem with it:

chmod -r 755 /mnt/data - This depends on usage.
chown -R user:group /mnt/data - This also.
*or* chmod -R ug+rwxs,o-w,o+rx /mnt/data - This also to.
It is totally dependent upon how samba is going to be used in the
network environment thus I can not say an exact permission option to
choose. If the folders contain W$ Profiles they would be read only.

Home Directories: Yes they can be Shared on a Per User Basis. What I
mean is only one user connects to a /home/user-name and no other user
connects to that same home. That home folder can contain a W$ roaming
profile plus be a holder for the user created files.

The article could be a starting point for more samba articles in a
series. One small basic configuration file would be good also.
Explanation at the begining is pretty good. Would also be good to put
all the samba articles on the wiki in one direct place.
