Bill -

Here is my configuration (samba-2.0.7):

[global]
        workgroup = {Domain Name}
        security = SERVER
        password server = {Name of PDC}
        os level = 0
        wins server = {IP address of WINS server}

# Access to UNIX home directories
[homes]
        read only = No
        browseable = No

# Public Scratch area
[public]
        path = /{pathname}/public
        read only = No
        guest ok = Yes

# Restricted Project Work Area
[{project name}]
        path = /{pathname}
        valid users = @{UNIX group name}
        force group = {UNIX group name}
