You could create one account and let all users connect with the same account. Not ideal but works great for informal sharing. Or have 2 or three accounts with differeing levels of security.
With Samba 3, you can get the linux box to join a domain and thus authenticate. I've heard samba 3 is even capable of doing windows domain authentication, although I've never tried it. There's a document below on ntfs-3g for CentOS as well. Samba 3 join windows domain: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/domain-member.html#id2571111 CentOS and NTFS: http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/NTFS |

It is possible to have the users authenticate against AD or LDAP. I have no experience with those. I have always just created Linux accounts, but my user base is much smaller. |

That is true for me too. I have never used it for that many users. In fact, in all honesty and against my judgement, I would buy a windows server for that... It does make life a lot easier.
