what distro are you using? you should be able to install samba with your
package manager and be done. you could change your workgroup to match your
domain if you like but shouldn't even have to do that. backuppc uses
nmblookup which is part of the samba package to determine ip address from
the host name, then connects directly to that machine via the samba client
with the supplied username and password in the backuppc config. no need to
configure samba in most circumstances. If you have an active directory
domain you may need to join that domain to gain access to those resources.
