Clean with water only, no soap. Dry and apply a light coating of cooking oil. That's all there is to it.

I store my dutch ovens with a paper towel in them, one end hanging out like a wick. It keeps condinsation from building up in them and them rusting inside while stored.
As for the cleaning, don't soak,clear water,no soap, get a good scrubber if you must but don't scrub the seasoning off. Also season with a thin layer of good old fashion lard. I don't mean the kind you buy in the store either. If you have a meat packer/butcher near buy they usually can sell you some in a 5lb brick. Store in freezer.
