Tip: to keep things manageable, do not start with the default smb.conf. 
That’s just an example. Create your own smb.conf from scratch (using the 
default as reference), and make sure every line you put in has a purpose 
you understand. Do not blindly copy/paste bunches of stuff “just in case”. 
The man page gives a lot of detail about each option; refer to it 
frequently.

Basic diagnostic tools like nmblookup, smbtree and smbstatus are also 
useful for troubleshooting. As is smbclient for checking that you can 
actually connect to your server.
