+SAMBA Server Installation on Ubuntu Server using Ansible
+--------
+There's a blog post that I wrote to go along with this. [Check it out!]
+
+This role is helpful to install SAMBA server on Ubuntu server 14.04 LTS.
+
+[SAMBA Installation Tutorial] - This step by step tutorial explains the installation and configuration of a SAMBA server on Ubuntu server.
+
+### To use this Role:
+
+Edit the `site.yml` file, mentioned this role:
+
+```yaml
+---
+- hosts: server
+  become: yes
+  gather_facts: yes
+  roles:
+    - samba
+```
+After that edit the `defaults/main.yml` file:
+
+> Change the username(s) and their smbpassword, but these user(s) must exist on the target system.
+> Also change the other values as per your requirement. These are self explanatory.
+
+```yaml
+---
+ubuntu_samba_packages:
+  - samba
+  - samba-common
+  - python-glade2
+  - system-config-samba
+workgroup: WORKGROUP
+public_share_name: public
+public_share_path: /samba/public
+private_share_name: private

+    smbpasswd: 'password' 
+```
+
+Then run this command:

+ansible-playbook -i hosts -u arbab site.yml
+```
+**Note:** Please don't forget to change `arbab` with your username
