Sounds fishy to me :-)

Here's the setup that works for me:
In /etc/services (can't remember whether I had to add these):
netbios-ns 137/tcp # NETBIOS Name Service
netbios-ns 137/udp
netbios-dgm 138/tcp # NETBIOS Datagram Service
netbios-dgm 138/udp
netbios-ssn 139/tcp # NETBIOS session service
netbios-ssn 139/udp
In /etc/inetd.conf:
netbios-ssn stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/samba/smbd smbd -d1
netbios-ns dgram udp wait root /usr/local/samba/nmbd nmbd -d1 -G WORKGROUP
Make the obvious change if your workgroup isn't called WORKGROUP.
And my smb.conf:
seagoon:rb > cat /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf
[global]
printing = bsd
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes
guest account = daemon
[printers]
comment = All Printers
browseable = no
printable = yes
public = yes
writable = no
create mode = 0700
[homes]
guest ok = no
read only = no
[fs7]
comment = seagoon:/fs7
path = /fs7
; public = yes
writable = yes
printable = no
[cdrom]
comment = seagoon:/cdrom
path = /cdrom
public = yes
writable = no
printable = no
seagoon:rb >
This gives access to all configured (in /etc/printcap) printers, home
directories, and /fs7 [password required] and /cdrom [no password required]
explicitly. If you just want homes, I think you only need the [global] and
[homes] sections.
At the WFW end, you must be running TCP/IP (which doesn't come as standard
but is freely available). Also, I believe you have to have the LMHOSTS file
set up (I usually populate both HOSTS and LMHOSTS because I can never
remember which does what).
