Enable Samba via SSH?

My LibreElec box is currently not plugged into any monitor. I assumed copying ~/.config/samba.conf.sample to ~/.config/samba.conf would be enough, but when I try to open \\192.168.X.XX from a Windows PC nothing is found.

I've then tried

systemctl start smbd.service, but running systemctl status smbd.service afterwards gives me
● smbd.service - Samba SMB Daemon
 Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/smbd.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled) 
 Active: inactive (dead) 
Condition: start condition failed at XXXXXXXX ago 
 └─ ConditionPathExists=!/storage/.cache/services/samba.disabled was not met 

XXXXXXXXX LibreELEC systemd[1]: Condition check resulted in Samba SMB Daemon being skipped.

Thank you, I'll try this asap.

I had edited samba.conf because I wanted to change what folders are exposed.

As for the .cache folder, does that get reset periodically? That is to say, do I need to add line 1 to my autostart.sh?

---------------

EDIT: it works, but all of my folders under /media are also getting mounted automatically. Can I prevent LE from doing so via SSH, or at least set them read-only?
