I can't tell if it's the problem or not, but you may or may not need to relabel (or whatever that is) your system. If not sure or no one chimes in soon, at least boot with selinux=0 at the kernel prompt and then see if it works with selinux off. Other thatn that, only thing I can bring up, is did you add the user(s) to samba as well? I believe it's smbpasswd -a user (might need to add "guest" (as in the actual word guest) as well ), but I could be wrong. -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY
