Hello Ally, You can create shares as usual by defining them in your smb.conf file. You can control access via users and groups, as long as samba knows about them. Reading the wiki at samba will help you a lot. Samba 4 is only really useful if you specifically want an AD domain, so version 3 should do it if NT style works. -- Regards, Jan Henkins

I prefer using command line and am not afraid To get my hands dirty with editing config files. Distro of choice is Centos but I am also familiar With Deb based distros. The PDC has to work with both Win XP and 7, I want to start with the basics before I even attempt LDAP, Kerberos Samba4 the way to go?
