Without details, it's hard to tell what you're trying to do.  Do you
want a Samba server, or is it just to access Windows shares on your
other systems as a client?  You may find 'man mount_smbfs' interesting.

As far as FTP, you can enable the FTP server on FreeBSD (uncomment the
first FTP line in /etc/inetd.conf) and use the Windows machines as
clients.
