Samba is the Windows Networking server package. It would act like a WIn95 box doing file sharing or an OS/2 Lan Server. You cannot connect your Win95 box to your FreeBSD box using parallel. They use completely different protocols. Instead, buy a couple of cheap Ethernet cards and string a cable between them. (If you get 10BaseT/TP units, you need a special crossover cable with pairs 1-2 and 3-6 reversed.)
