check out http://www.samba.org .. 'apt-get install samba' will install the deb
package of samba .. then you can check out the /usr/doc/samba and stuff
.. there is already pre-set config in /etc/samba, you can modify that to your
liking .. 

to mount smb resources under linux, you can check out fs(5) manpage .. there is
also url that has some patches for mount, though i think debian doesn't need
them, few months ago i've made it work on machine with fresh debian installed
from last years cd distro [20001207]
