So samba isn't such a PITA for a normal user. The reason I am reporting this is because if you don't do that, setting up shares with gnome (right click folder, "share folder") will not work properly. The windows computer will not be able to reach the said folder.
In /etc/samba/ smb.conf,
we should set
;security = user
to
security = share
