I have been trying for a year to get samba to work with Suse (first
started with SuSE 9.0) and have had no success.

Have one machine setup as a server with its default settings in Yast
One machine is client, again with default setting in Yast.

It does not work with the firewall on either machine even though I
enabled tcp and udp ports 137, 138, 139.

Without the firewall, I can browse the network and it shows groups,
users, and profiles

If I click on users, it asks for login and password. I put in the user
and password for the server, it does not authenticate.

All I want to do is to set up one machine as a server where both my wife
and I can access a common directory from our two machines.

Any suggestions on how to do this or a detailed howto for a
non-networking specialist would be appreciated.
