You shouldn't have all that much trouble finding someone in your local
area who is *not*; I would strongly suggest you find one and pay him to
tutor you for a couple hours.  :-)

The most important thing you need to confirm for us, though, is *how
your windows clients are talking to your fileserver*.  Is it Samba?
Netware/Linux?  Or something else?
