Detailed Samba information is available in the digital documentation.
Enter apropos samba at the command
line to display some manual pages or just browse the
/usr/share/doc/packages/samba directory if Samba
documentation is installed for more online documentation and examples.
Find a commented example configuration
(smb.conf.SUSE) in the examples
subdirectory.
The Samba 3 HOWTO provided by the Samba team includes a section about
troubleshooting. In addition to that, Part V of the document provides a
step-by-step guide to checking your configuration. You can find Samba 3
HOWTO in
/usr/share/doc/packages/samba/Samba3-HOWTO.pdf after
installing the package samba-doc.
