Edit /etc/samba/smb.conf

For a share called myshare:

Code:
[myshare]
        comment = My Wonderful Share
        path = /local/linux/path
        writeable = yes
        public = yes
Change the path to whatever the local path is.

Then make sure you restart samba with the following command (as root):

Code:
service smb restart
