Costas,

My install guide may help you most of the way..

You will have to add the samba and any other packages you need..

Then I would suggest you read the handbooks that are available on the 
digium.com website on the documentation page..

If you don't have an IP hard phone then you probably want to download 
X-Lite from www.xten.com

That should get you on your way..

Later..
