I've found the instructions on this page pretty helpful when setting up
the Windows side:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComprehensiveSambaGuide
There is also a Samba link page here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba
that might be of help.

Kim Briggs (of this list) also has a pretty good page on Samba:
