   Samba makes Linux see and understand SMB (Server Message Block) 
   protocol, which is what the PC Lan boxes are using to exchange 
   file and directory information. You don't need to make any 
   changes on the PC side, except that you must enable NetBios over 
   IP, as that is the only NetBios that Samba knows.

   You also have to setup permissions on the Samba box, the docs 
   should explain that...
