I have a fresh install of 9.10 64 bit.  Had the same issue when you
click configure file sharing, it prompted for a password, and then
nothing happened.

I installed kdenetwork-filesharing and now I got a bunch of menus to
setup samba shares.  Even a Samba menu under System Settings.  However I
couldn't get any shares to be visible locally or from other machines.  I
resorted to editing the smb.conf manually, and still had no luck.  When
I tried to restart samba I couldn't find /etc/init.d/samba.  Turns out
the package samba is also not installed.

No where were there prompts to install these 2 packages needed for the
UI to function.
