Ubuntu/XP Share

I have Ubuntu Server v7.04 installed on 1 computer. I want to set up someway to share files between that computer and my windows XP computers. I know how to use SAMBA in GNOME but I don't want to install gnome just for that purpose.

I'm using this computer to make simple command line applications and as a web server so I have no reason to have a gui.

Can anybody explain to me how to use SAMBA on the command line?


thanks
Ryan

A bit of googling turned this up: http://www.linuxheadquarters.com/how...ng/samba.shtml

Seems to me like the hardest thing to get right on the command line will be writing your config file w/o any graphical check-boxes and tips...
