First of all, if you are only trying to setup Samba on a mixed Window
NT/95/98 network, then it's cake...

First, make sure to enable encrypted passwords in your smb.conf

  encrypt passwords = yes

Then, add any user who you would like to have connect to your system
like this...

smbpasswd -a username

You will want to modify the smb.conf a little more for the particular
shares you would like made available...
