Chuck,
        Edit the file /etc/samba/smb.conf to put your shares. I've included mine 
as a sample.  Then start up smbd.  This can be done from the script 
'/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb'.  Then you should be able to get in.
In my smb.conf you can see the share 'root' points ot '/'.  Not very 
secure.  Also to give clients full access to stuff (not reccommended but 
possible try 'chmod --recursive 0777 /'.  That opens up every file on 
your system.

So basic steps
Edit the smb.conf file
% vi /etc/samba/smb.conf
Start Samba
% /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start

If you want samba to start automagically then you'll have to tell your 
machine how...on RedHat you can run 'setup' and then pick system 
services and select 'smbd' and/or 'nmbd'.
