Just install samba and you are ready to go

sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install samba 

Then you'll need to edit the conf file accordingly /etc/samba/smb.conf

This should be very basic config to start with:

# Global parameters [global] workgroup = HOME netbios name = SAMBA server string = Samba Server %v map to guest = Bad User log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 security = User # My share [share] # Path to your share path = /home/user/samba browsable = yes guest ok = yes read only = no create mask = 0755
