MacOS X does not have GUI for adding shares like MacOS X Server.
For example, to add the following new share to MacOS samba service:
\Macintosh\lacie
do this:
sudo pico /etc/smb.conf
then add new share, such as:
[shared]
comment = Shared Directory
path = /Users/Shared
read only = no
browseable = yes
create mode = 755
then do this:
sudo killall -HUP smbd
