The source code package includes a (almost) complete documentation. See 
there, under docs, the following books:

- Samba3-HOWTO.pdf -- This 965-pages book contains a whole chapter 
dedicated to vfs modules: Chapter 23 Stackable VFS modules

- Samba3-ByExample.pdf

The HTML versions of the above are also there, under "htmldocs". This 
directory also contains the man pages in HTML format.

The smb.conf man page contains information about the general use of vfs 
modules. Most of these also have their own man pages.


Please note that you can download a very good precompiled samba 3.3.0 
from here:
