The easiest way to maintain Samba is with SWAT.
SWAT allows you to manage Samba with your browser.
Uncomment in /etc/inetd.conf the swat line
Type: /etc/init.d/inetd restart
Start your browser and type: http://localhost:901
You can export manually shares in smb.conf for example:
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S
read only = No
create mask = 0640
directory mask = 0750
browseable = No
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/tmp
guest account = johnz
create mask = 0600
guest ok = Yes
hosts allow = 192.168.1.
printable = Yes
use client driver = Yes
browseable = No
[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /var/lib/samba/drivers
write list = @ntadmin root
force group = ntadmin
create mask = 0664
directory mask = 0775
[home]
path = /home
read only = No
[etc]
path = /etc
[var]
path = /var
