Problems with share accesses.

Samba v2.0.6 is installed, but obviously not configured properly on
an old DEC Alpha Model 3100 running VMS 7.3 and TCPIP 5.0
The node name is WOODSTOCK. It is being used as a development/
evaluation box for SAMBA at this time. [eventually SAMBA would
replace our Pathworks servers.]
The system shows up in NT's server manager as being active [the icon
is lit] but any action from the File menu results in "network path not
found"
I used smbclient.exe_axp to get the node to join the domain and it
reported,
as well as appears, to have been successful.
The only error testparm reports is the the locks directory should have
create mode 0755 to allow browsing. From the smb.conf, I included
force create mode 0755 for the locks directory but still have had no
success browsing. I have also, from VMS-side, opened up directory
and file permissions to s:rwed, o:rwed, g:rwed and w:rwed in an
attempt
to get the directory into condition.
I guess I'm at the point of "where did I go wrong?" Towards that end,
following is my [current] smb.conf file:
; Configuration file for smbd.
