Well, first you need to create/configure /etc/smb.conf or
/etc/samba/smb.conf (in later versions): see
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html Test the configuration
with testparm. Start the smbd in daemon mode (smbd -D) and your off and
running
My config is as follows:
# Global parameters

workgroup = RB_LAW
server string = RB_LAW Samba Server %v
encrypt passwords = Yes
update encrypted = Yes
smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u

os level = 34
