The fact that you can ping the computers only means that the network 
is running OK and has nothing to do with SAMBA.

You need to tell os what you want. Is it a domain controller? The 
samba homepage has excellent documentation on how you set up things. 
Try this link:

http://sunsite.auc.dk/samba/docs/ntdom_faq/samba_ntdom_faq.html

Note: Users are added with the following command (in case you use 
encryption):

smbpasswd -a username

Enter the password twice as usual. Then you need to enable the SAMBA 
user accounts:

smbpasswd -e username

The last part is often forgotten.
