Okay Victor, here is a (sanitized/altered) smb.conf file I use.
Granted, this is setup to authenticate against the NT4 PDC.
But, the setup of samba users locally is really documented heavily on
samba.org's documentation. The rest should get you on the right
track.
The @admin and @marketing are unix groups.

To exercise power costs effort and demands courage. That is why so
many fail to assert rights to which they are perfectly entitled -
because a right is a kind of power but they are too lazy or too
cowardly to exercise it. The virtues which cloak these faults are
called patience and forbearance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
