The default configuration is not so much intended to work with windows as it is to provide a very broad example of the many things you can do with Samba. Most of these things you will not need in a basic configuration. Samba has the capability of acting as a PDC, a WINS server, a print host, and so on. Not everyone uses these portions. In addition, not everyone calls their windows share group, "WORKGROUP." Modifications will have to be made for such changes / adaptations.
