See the man page for smb.conf.

Basically you want:

workgroup=<your_workgroup>
local master = yes
domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
os level = 250 (just something high)

And you probly want:

wins support = yes

You need to think about your security methods, how you will use passwords to authenticate for your network. Read the man page.

If you're connecting Linux machines together, I recommend you use NFS. See the man pages for nfs, exports and fstab. NFS is the best way to share directories in a unix environment.
