installing samba can be fairly easy with the right package manager. I
like ubuntu myself. and if any user had a question about how to share
files with windows computers many linux users can point them to samba,
in Ubuntu you can go to "add/remove programs" and do a search for
samba. in the results you see samba, and gadmin-samba which is a
graphical administration tool. I think if the user has a network
currently up and running they should have some general idea about
network setups, setting up a samba server isn't quite as scary with
the graphical tools, in fact you might be surprised how easy it can
be. If you have KDE checking out smb4k might be nice. great little
samba share browser.
