Everytime a box joins a SMB network, they all have a pissing contest to see who gets to be boss. It can take a while to sort out, and some things can go peculiar in the meantime.
I do not think it is the case, Tim, as the reported problem occurs even when the virtual machine is started long after the F7 reboot. On the other hand, when I run system-config-samba, I see that the shared directory is not set as visible; I only need to set it as visible to have the sharing process running fine. But I have to do that after each reboot. Paul
