I have a wireless network with a MAC using OSX, a Windows 2000 Pro PC and a Ubuntu 6.06 PC. All systems can access the internet through Qwest DSL. I have downloaded Samba and am trying to understand the step-by-step proceedures to allow communication between boxes. The first goal is to be able to use the Ubuntu box as a print server for the three systems. The second goal is to allow file sharing between the windows PC and the Linux PC so I can weed out old files and transfer needed files to the Linux unit as a step toward elimination of Windows. I have read parts of the Samba3-By Example but I need additional help understanding how to setup configurations for each box. I would be happy to bring the Linux system to a convienent location for help.
