Well, actually, the PHPTR link points to an older copy of the official 
documentation.

Best advice for newbies is to point them at:
	http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-ByExample.pdf

The PDF is easier to read for many, but the HTML link is preferred by others.
	http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-ByExample.html

Craig,
You've been fielding a lot of activity for a while now - you know the ropes. 
Advanced users should consult the HOWTO, and a newbie would easily get lost in 
the wild woods there. Despite that, most newbies apparently want to master 
brain surgery before they ever attempt the basics.

Cheers,
John T.
