Paul, you'd probably fare better with rcrsn51's pkg.

No.
First of all, Shinobar's samba sfs is not compatible with micko's samba. Shinobar's does not work on some recent Puppy's shipped with micko's samba,
Second: After installing shinobar's samba sfs, look up the directory /etc/samba. Copy smb.conf.sample to smb.conf and edit it as you need.
Third: Run samba.sh(Samba Simple Management).

That's even more confusing. What's micko's samba got to do with my problem?

SFS instllations should "just work". that's part of their raison d'etre

I gave up trying and just installed SambaTNG, and it just worked immediately with no problems

no further help required
