I have got a bit further with this thanks to Brian

Samba is now running and visible from Windows machines. The only thing
now is how to allow users created on the BQ GUI to be able to access the
shares.
I have SWAT running but even using the wizard I cannot see how to set it
up.
Any guidance gratefully received.
Thanks
