Ok. I installed swat. Was able to connect and log in and all that
goodness. Now I"m configuring shares. So far I have not been able to
view any shares from Windows XP. Here's the current config:

# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2004/11/10 11:16:37

# Global parameters
[global]
	netbios name = LINUX SERVER
	server string = Samba Server
	log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
	max log size = 50
	socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
	printcap name = /etc/printcap
	dns proxy = No
	idmap uid = 16777216-33554431
	idmap gid = 16777216-33554431
	cups options = raw

	comment = All Printers
	path = /var/spool/samba
	printable = Yes
