The default samba configuration will do as you want 'out of the box'. All you need change is the workgroup name in your /etc/samba.smb.conf file. If you prefer using a GUI install the drakwizard RPM and then your Mandrake Control Centre will have a new entry for a Samba server wizard which will make the edit for you.
