Try reading some documentation. You can download the Samba source
from http://www.samba.org.  After untarring, look in the docs
directory.

If you have Samba manual pages installed, try reading the
manual page for smb.conf(5).  It will tell you about setting
up a [homes] share, which will answer some of your questions.
Also look there for the encrypted passwords option, and also
read the manpage for smbpasswd(8).

Detailed directions can be found in the Using Samba book,
which is available in the Samba source distribution, or
online here:

It's the first edition, and a little old, but will answer
your basic question, and get you started.
