If it successfully install you can get the some output related to the Samba, if not there is no output to visible.
Before config the Samba in your Linux environment, please backup your previous Samba configuration file if you already have the some Samba sharing settings. if not you can start it as the fresh configuration.
Please use the below command to backup the already having Samba configuration file.
sudo cp /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf.orig
As a second step please create the folder you want share using the Samba,
mkdir /<path>/<FolderName>/
Now we can assign the permission for folder.
