No you dont have to install samba on the windows client.You run testparm /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf to see if smb.conf has no syntaks errors. Then you must add users with the same username and passwd as in linux.Type smbpasswd -a (username) and give passwd when prompted for it. Then run smbclient -Llocalhost to see if you can see the shares.I attach my smb.conf file which work and you can use if you get problems with yours.Remember to replace the ip-addresses in interfaces,remote announce and broadcast with the values of your lan.
