Jerry, 

I am now translating Samba docs into Japanese and found some problems:

1) smb.conf.5.sgml - wins hook

  <para>An example script that calls the BIND dynamic DNS update 
  program <command>nsupdate</command> is provided in the examples 
  directory of the Samba source code. </para>

  Actually there are NO nsupdate samples in examples directory now.
  Can I delete these below? or why the sample was deleted?

2) smb.conf.5.sgml - add machine script
  "Samba 3.0" is found.

3) smb.conf.5.sgml - veto files
  The indentation is broken at "examples" section

4) smb.conf.5.sgml - username map
  "The special client name '*' is a wildcard and matches any
               ~~~~~~~~~~~ <-- "user name" is valid?
  name."

And there are several words which means "parameter" such as
"parameter", "option", and rarely "line". Which word should we use?

5) smb.conf.5.sgml - short preserve case
><listitem><para>controls if new files which conform to 8.3 syntax, 
>that is all in upper case and of suitable length, are created 
>upper case, or if they are forced to be the "default" 
>case. This option can be use with "preserve case = yes" 
>to permit long filenames to retain their case, while short names 
>are lowercased. Default <emphasis>yes</emphasis>.</para></listitem>
 
As far as I examined, ...
=====
<listitem><para>controls if new files which conform to 8.3 syntax, 
that is all in upper or lower case and of suitable length, are created
with the case that client passes, or if they are forced to be the
"default" case.
This option can be use with "preserve case = yes" 
to permit long filenames to retain their case, while short names 
are lowercased. Default <emphasis>yes</emphasis>.</para></listitem>
=====

6) smb.conf.5.sgml - server string
  the described default value is "Samba %v", but it is not valid.
  the default value is "Samba VERSION".
