This page is a collection of links to the main document.
After I put some tips and trix on the Samba-Mailing list
many people sent me a thank you letter... At the end of my work
I decided to put all of my experience on the Web.
I hope that it will help you and will save you time...
The main document contains my experience with Samba and

Samba and Samba as PDC. You will find here many solutions
