Just configure a share by editing the /etc/samba/smb.conf.

Create a User with useradd.
Add the user to samba with smbpasswd.
Configure the rights on the filesystem.

You get the password windows by going to :

Window$

-Start-Execute

and type

\\servername\sharename

Thx, but what about security option in smb.conf?

security=user

or

security=share
