Try here:
http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/swat.8.html

and here:
http://samba.linuxbe.org/en/samba/learn/swat.html

Bare in mind your distro may keep the files in different places. If you have problems PM me.

ok, thanks for your help

I've used SWAT but i still have problems with shares

Now, everybody can see the linux machine, but nobody can browse shares

The linux machine can browse,read and write every windows shares

any idea?

thanks

Can you post your [shares] portion of your smb.conf file?

I forgot to add a user of samba with the same credentials that the winxp user

thanks for your help
