Basic Samba Configuration

Joey's Notes: Basic Samba Configuration LG #157: "Samba is a program that runs on Linux and allows seamless interaction between the Linux and Windows operating systems. By using Samba, your users can be using Windows and actually access their data on a Linux server. This benefits the administrator - in the form of ease of administration, along with the inherent security of Linux - while also benefitting the user through familiarity. This month's article covers basic setup of a Samba server for use as a user home directory server, and configuration for a simple group collaboration share."
