The HOW-TOs tell you to download and install Samba. You probably already installed Samba when you installed RedHat. I suggest you check your RedHat documentation. If you have already installed Samba, setting it up might be even easier for you than the HOW-TO. I wasted a couple of days the first time I installed Samba trying to download and install software I had unknowingly installed when I loaded RedHat. I created problems for myself by trying to install over the previously installed software. Once Samba is installed (assuming it isn't already) its just a matter of configuration.
