I personally have not done this (setting up simple shares for my wife's NT
box being about as far as I've gone), but I did notice that my 7.2 box has
the following documents in /usr/share/doc/samba-2.2.1a/docs/htmldocs:

                           Samba-PDC-HOWTO.html
                            samba-pdc-faq.html
                           samba-pdc-howto.html

Looks like they're chock full of tips/tricks/gotchas... :-)

Please, let us know how you make out -- this is one aspect of Samba that
I've not had any real exposure to, and I for one am interesting in learning
more about it...
