glad to hear it's working fine.
i think you already set up the workgroup name during the debian install, so the system did not have to prompt you again for that. also, with the vast user comunity debian packages are constantly updated and improved, so installation may be slightly different from the howtos you find on the internet.
i know the hackoramo page, but thought that the debian admin page would have been better since it covers both install and configuration
.
i think apt is superb, sometimes it cannot resolve all dependencies on its own but most of the time it's no problem. also when you get to that stage, most probably you don't need that guidance that badly anymore.
have you been able to resolve the issue with your nics?

SYNOPSIS
smbta-util [COMMANDS...]
DESCRIPTION
This tool is part of the samba(1) suite.
smbta-util is a tool to ease the configuration of the vfs_smb_traffic_analyzer module regarding data encryption.
The user can generate a key, install a key (activating encryption), or uninstall a key (deactivating encryption). Any operation that

the file.
COMMANDS
-h
Show a short help text on the command line.
-f KEYFILE
Open an existing keyfile, read the key from the file, and install the key, activating encryption.
-g KEYFILE
Generate a new random key, install the key, activate encryption, and store the key into the file KEYFILE.
-u
Uninstall the key, deactivating encryption.
-s
Check if a key is installed.
-c KEYFILE
Create a KEYFILE from an installed key.
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.4 of the Samba suite.
AUTHOR
The original version of smbta-util was created by Holger Hetterich.
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open
Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
