Why do you need to access your shares via HTTP???!!
THe only thing this might be usefull is from outside your lan over
internet?!
If you plan this, there ist the linux opensource solution OPENVPN!! With
this mighty software
you work with your shares and outlook from outside as if you were in your
bureau.
Take a look at it and give it a try!

Hello,
I configured samba fileserver as a member of samba domain. PDC and
fileserver are different machines.
It works great using windows sharing.
Now, I need to set up apache to serve my shares, but I am having
problem with permissions. Apache runs as www-user, and doesn't see
content in shares.
So I would like to ask, what is the proper way to use apache (or
another http server) to serve files on file server.
Using Ubuntu 9.10 and Samba 3.4.0-3ubuntu5.1.
Thanks for help,
Martin
Right now, my configuration is:
smb.conf
[global]
workgroup = DOMAIN.EU
netbios name = share2
server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu)
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 1000
syslog = 0
panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
winbind separator = +
idmap uid = 10000-20000
idmap gid = 10000-20000
winbind enum users = yes
winbind enum groups = yes
security = domain
password server = *
[software]
comment = Shared software
path = /srv/fileserver/software
force group = "DOMAIN.EU+domain users"
create mask = 0660
directory mask = 0770
writable = yes
/etc/nsswitch.conf:
passwd: compat winbind
group: compat winbind
# ls -la /srv/fileserver/software/
total 20

I guess you are trying to do this with wedav. I've looked and have not
found
a good Linux solution. To use Apache, you would have to write a listener
that forks an Apache process as the user. That is expensive and there is
no
pre-built solution out there. We finally gave up and used Windows 2008
with
IIS 7 which can do this natively. We set-up a web site who's root is our
samba share (we only have one share and specify all permissions through
ACLs). This preserves permissions and owners so that quotas are not thrown
off.
We initially did some nasty group member things to get it to work with
Apache, but the management overhead was a nightmare and went with the
Windows solution even though we wanted to go Linux.
