There is a samba package, but only in unstable right now:
     samba               2.2.4-1        SMB and CIFS client and server for UNIX
     samba-ssl           2.2.4-1        SMB and CIFS client and server 
for UNIX, with SSL support
     sambasentinel       0.1-1          Gtk+ frontend to smbstatus

But noet that OS X also has built in SMB support, albeit no SMB 
browser right now, so if you just want to connect to SMB machines 
that's enough.

As to a SMB browser: I haven't tried it myself yet, but look at  SMB 
Browse http://shukwit.com/main.php (found via the almighty 
http://www.versiontracker.com/)

That's it, yeah.

Yes: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=371315&group_id=17203

But first check if the package already exists:
