I am taking a Samba setup essentialy unchanged from Samba on Red Hat 8 (samba-2.2.7-5.8.0) to Fedora Core 1 (samba-3.0.0-15). I can use smbclient to access anonymous shares (i.e. those not requiring a password). I cannot use smbclient to access my home directory. Security is the default, user, and passwords are to be encrypted.

I finally found the problem. I had "valid users = %S" in the configuration file, apparently figuring that Samba would expand the %S. It does not. I changed it to "valid users = ccurley" and it worked.
Actually, this seems like a real problem. I have 30+ users, each with a home directory on my samba server. I have 3.0 on a test server now, to get everything worked out before moving it online. Good thing, eh?
While your solution works for a single user, I'd still like to see the question answered for a multiuser environment.
