First of all, make sure you have the smbd running. Simply start it with smbd -D
(daemon mode) as root. 
For the earlier samba-versions (i.e the one shipped by suse 5.3), the way to
add users is smbpasswd -a. For newer versions I think there is a command
smbadduser. Then you have to set the password with the smbpasswd command (in
both cases). Good luck!
