You could take one of the examples from the first few chapters of the Samba3 by example book online and make up a simple share. Something like this should do: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = COPYWORLD netbios name = Firebird comment = Firebird database server server string = Firebird database server security = SHARE disable spoolss = Yes show add printer wizard = No wins server = 10.0.0.2 hosts allow = 10.0.0.(W2K3IP), 127. [Firebird] comment = Firebird database path = /data/Firebird force user = iceserver force group = iceservergroup read only = No guest ok = Yes nt acl support = No Look at the book for the rest of the configs and procedures.
