Please follow the examples in the book "Samba-3 by Example", Second edition. 
You can obtain this in print from Amazon.Com, or in PDF from:
http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-ByExample.pdf

The chapters that will help you most are Chapters 5 and 6.

If you run into difficulties with the official documentation I have suggested 
please get back to me with specific details of what does not work for you. I 
will need to know the Chapter, section and page number please.

If the documentation is wrong, or misleading, I will fix it.

Cheers,
John T.
