   My notes: This works for me and is well tested on bookworm.   
   Hope there are clues for you there.   
   It shares the root so you can see the lot.   
      
      
   sudo apt-get install samba samba-common-bin   
      
   sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf   
      
   In the [global] area make sure you have ;   
      
   workgroup = WORK GROUP   
      
   unix extensions = no   
      
      
   Comment out using # anything in [homes] even [homes] itself   
   to prevent unwanted 'pi' share. eg.   
      
   #[homes]   
   #   comment = Home Directories   
   #   browseable = no   
   #   read only = yes   
   #   create mask = 0700   
   #   directory mask = 0700   
   #   valid users = %S   
      
   Then Print$ as that too shows a share on fileBrowser iPad.   
      
   #[print$]   
   #   comment = Printer Drivers   
   #   path = /var/lib/samba/printers   
   #   browseable = yes   
   #   read only = yes   
   #   guest ok = no   
      
   Then, just above [printers] in the share definitions...   
   Add the following 14 lines...   
      
   ---------------------------------------------------   
   # The following added to share the root.   
      
   [root]   
      comment = root   
      path = /   
      writeable = yes   
      only guest = no   
      directory mask = 0777   
      create mask = 0777   
      force user = root   
      force group = root   
      public = no   
      follow symlinks = yes   
      wide links = yes   
   ---------------------------------------------------   
      
   Save back the file      Cntrl-X, Y,    
      
      
   Set the share password   
   ======================   
      
   sudo smbpasswd -a pi   
   enter password for pi user twice.   
      
   sudo systemctl restart smbd   
      
   'root' connection should now connect from a PC.   
      
      
   Done.
