I have been reading about getting samba installed.
Im reading 
http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/faqguide-all.html#sect-samba-server
at ubuntu about getting it up and running.

I am in need of a  little clarification.

On number 3 under samba it says,
    Add network user:
    smbpasswd - a system_username
    sudo gedit /etc/samba/subusers

Ok. Add network user. What group does this go in - admin?
And what type of user does it mean - something like "smbuser"?
and what about the password? Do I just put something in there?

Im sure Ill have lots more questions but this is really not that clear 
to me.
