Samba user registration

Hi I am trying to get Samba running … sofar so good

I can not access the specifies folders (under samba ).

The system requests user-name and password.

According the documentation the samba user must register => user-name and password.

??? Where ( and how) do I register ???

thanks

Use smbpasswd…
sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME
