sharing external drive

[buzdog]

Hi,
I have an external USB hard drive (FAT format) connected to my Kubuntu Feisty box and I'd like to share it on my wireless network via samba (or other suggested method?) so i can read/write access it from my macbook (or any other mac/windows comp on my network) and continue to use it as normal from my Kubuntu box. I'm kinda familiar with samba config for sharing home folders but not sure how to add this drive.....pls help
cheers

Re: sharing external drive

Following the way I'm sharing a part of a partition of one of my usb disks:

USER # ls -l /media/data [in excerpts]

drwxr-xr-x birdy birdy Buffer

USER # more /etc/samba/smb.conf [ditto]

[global]
interfaces = eth0
workgroup = FAMILY
unix charset = UTF-8
security = user
map to guest = bad user
guest account = nobody

[Buffer]
path = /media/data/Buffer
browseable = yes
writeable = yes
wide links = no
username = birdy
create mask = 0644
directory mask = 0755
