Have you checked out SWAT? If you've configured it (you require samba, swat
AND apache typically), try pointing your web browser at:

http://yourlinuxbox:901

and see if it's there. If so, log in using the root account and password
(DON'T expose swat to the Internet!)

SWAT lets you easily set up a basic smb.conf file. This will help you build
a WORKING config that you can study. Once you've got the basics going with
swat, read the manpage for smb.conf, and you should be in good shape.
