my guess is "smbpasswd -a yourusername"  will probably help, as to
documentation

http://de.samba.org/samba/oreilly/using_samba/

or the mirror of your choice

Subject: connecting to samba server



	I have freeBSD 3.4 installed on a dedicated gateway machine in my
basement, and two win98 boxes connected to it through NATD for my ISPs
connection. I've recently tried installing samba to allow printer and file
sharing between the two [windows] boxes, and I've been having some
difficulty. I can see all three machines in Network Neighborhood, but I
can't access anything within them. (ie: I open an item, and the folder is
blank)

I am using samba-2.0.5 and I am having difficulty configuring smb.conf.
Samba is being run from inetd and smb.conf is configured as follows:

[global]
   socket options = TCP_NODELAY
   printing = bsd
   printcap name = /etc/printcap
   load printers = yes
   guest account = miyako
   log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m

[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   browseable = no
   printable = yes
   public = yes
   writable = no
   create mode = 0700

but I am not sure how to configure this for file sharing. Could anyone
please direct me to some solid documentation on this.

Thanks kindly.
Fred
