Ubuntu File And Print For Windows Workgroups

This is a detailed tutorial about the steps to set up an Ubuntu based server (Ubuntu 5.10 - Breezy Badger) to act as file- and print server for Windows workstations in small workgroups. This howto uses the tdb backend for Samba to store passwords and account information. This is suitable for workgroups for up to 250 users and is easier to setup than an LDAP backend.

I'm primarily posting this as a reference to myself - so I can get my new file server running the right way from the start. Which would be a welcome change.
