Edit /etc/config/samba

# vi /etc/config/samba
config samba
        option name 'OpenWrt'
        option workgroup 'WORKGROUP'
        option description 'OpenWrt'
        option homes '0' 

config sambashare
        option name 'samba'
        option read_only 'no'
        option users 'samba'

        option dir_mask '0777'
        option path '/home/samba'
        option guest_ok 'yes' 

        option null_passwords 'yes'

 Install useradd application :

# opkg update
# opkg install shadow-useradd

Adding samba user to OpenWRT:

# useradd samba

Create password for user diantokam

# passwd samba

Start samba service

 
# /etc/init.d/samba start

Adding "samba" to samba user

# smbpasswd -a samba

Enable samba service on startup

# /etc/init.d/samba enable

To accesses samba share from windows type \\samba_server_name on address bar, in my case it is \\openwrt  or using  \\ip_address in my case, it is \\192.168.1.1

not require username and password for samba if you have configured "null_password yes"

Done.
