Create samba password for users using smbpasswd command:
#smbpasswd -a <username>
#smbpasswd -e <username>
eg:
#smbpasswd -a jethin
then give password.
#smbpasswd -e jethin

Add the following to the configuration file in /etc/samba/smb.conf


[Folders]
comment = linux shares
path = /
public = yes
browseable = yes

printable = no
valid users = jethin
hosts allow = 192.168.1.

The above details can be edited according to your necessity.
