Since the official Samba documentation is authoritative and actually
covers this subject, pointing to another 3rd party for reference is
likely to cause confusion...especially when a confused administrator
hasn't consumed the official documentation to begin with.

Well, actually, the PHPTR link points to an older copy of the official
documentation.
Best advice for newbies is to point them at:
http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-ByExample.pdf
The PDF is easier to read for many, but the HTML link is preferred by others.

Craig,
You've been fielding a lot of activity for a while now - you know the ropes.
Advanced users should consult the HOWTO, and a newbie would easily get lost in
the wild woods there. Despite that, most newbies apparently want to master
brain surgery before they ever attempt the basics.
Cheers,
John T.
But, but, if we master the brain surgery right off the bat, doesn't this
have the basics subsumed in it, and wouldn't this, then, be a more
efficient use of everyone's time? The journey of a thousand steps would
be immeasurably shortened if we could only skip all that middle part and
go right to the last step.... :^)
