Beginner question on setting passwords

[Dr Robert Young]

I can not easily read the docs on samba 2.2.8 (8/17/2005) since they  
are all HTML (I am working on a VT320 ). Can someone give me ( or  
point me to a description) the "step 1...step2  .... step 33) for  
setting usernames/passwords on samba? This is a one user system, and  
I simply need to transfer files occasionally to back them up to a  
second location.  I have tried to read the HTML and get the feeling  
it has something to do with the smbpasswd command, but my eyes are  
starting to "cross" after staring at html with a text screen!!!
