[edit] Samba 2.-.10-security-rollup
In my network places, I see my WL-HDD as Samba 2.0.10-security-rollup, how can I change this name to something else?

Check out the NMBD guide. This contains everything you will need to get your WL-HDD displayed properly on your network.
[edit] user rights
When I create files or folders from my Windows XP in a Samba share they became always these settings: "rwxr-xr-x" and an other user (with permissions to this share) can't delete them. What can Ido?

Hi there, I have written a guide that should suit your needs.
Change File and Directory Mask
Hope this helps someone.
[edit] Non-ASCII characters
If users have names that contains non-ASCII character (eg "Tomáš") or users uses non-ASCII characters in filenames then you should configure samba to work properly with another code-page. For example for central European scenario add these lines into smb.conf:
client code page = 852 character set = ISO8859-2
This sets server-side code page to ISO 8859-2 (latin 2) and informs server that client uses CP852 (IBM DOS Central European). It's correct configuration for central Europe. I really don not know why Windows uses CP852 instead of Windows-1250.
By now I don't know how to configure samba to support full UNICODE as Windows share does :-(
