[Samba] Is there something missing?

[Lonnie Cumberland]

Hey Success!!!!

Wow do I feel so stupid about not being able to figure that out. I
was starting to go crazy because I thought that I had misconfigured
Samba.

Thanks for the help and this is something that I will not soon forget
I'm sure.

Tahnks again,
Lonnie
