[Samba] Can't get Samba to work as a print/file server

Hi everyone,

I'm new at this, been through all of the troubleshooting guides without any 
luck.   So here I am.

smb.conf looks like this:

# smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented
# version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SuSE
# Date: 2003-09-23
[global]
        workgroup = CORBIN
        netbios name = CORBIN1

[data]
        comment = Common Data
        path = /export

[homes]
        guest ok = no
        read only = no

The samba servers are up and running.

Running the smbclient against the server yields the following:
en at corbin1:~> smbclient -L localhost

Domain=[CORBIN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.9-2.3-SUSE]

ken at corbin1:~> smbclient //localhost/data
Password:
Anonymous login successful
Domain=[CORBIN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.9-2.3-SUSE]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

I'm running SUSE 9.2.  There is a fancy firewall in place, but it should be 
allowing anything from localhost or the internal network through.
Nothing appears in log.smdb or log.nmdb, or in the main system log file.

Here I'm stuck, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
-Ken
