NFS: Install nfs-kernel-server and portmap on the server. Add
exports to /etc/exports and restart the NFS server using its
initscript. Mount filesystem on the client and start using it...
/etc/exports entry:
----
/srv/media 10.0.0.3(rw,async,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)
----
mount command:
# mount -t nfs vlad:/srv/video /media/video
Samba: Your guess is as good as mine for how to make it work.
Samba and I aren't on speaking terms, and haven't been for some
time. :)

I think that describes LDAP quite well. :)
I have NFS+Samba at home (the latter under protest), and I don't
use LDAP here at all. The main point of LDAP is so that you can
centralise the username-uid mappings. There are other solutions for
this (including simply creating the users on client machines with the
right uids).
