I would suggest you follow the Samba documentation instead of the Samba part of the above link, that is full of inaccuracies and unneeded settings:Look at using samba to make your RPi filesystem available as a Windows share.

I don't think running a server is what the OP is asking about. If they are though, I'd suggest Building A Pi Based NAS wot I wrote.
