You should add a line
SRC_URI += "file://smb.conf"
that will copy a file from your "${THISDIR}/iris:" to ${WORKDIR}
and then..

..install this with "install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/smb.conf 
${D}${sysconfdir}/samba/smb.conf"

Also make sure that you have a directory ${D}${sysconfdir}/samba by 
adding the line:
install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/samba
