I wont give you exact way of doing that but when I've done something similar
last time I've found those two links very helpful:

http://library.pantek.com/Applications/Samba/Samba-3%20By%20Example/
http://www.brentnorris.net/samba2005.html

hopefully they will help you as well ;)


Enjoy and Regards
