[Samba] Path issues in share name

[Barry Johnson]

You are 100% correct on this.  After banging my head against the wall for a
couple of hours I thought of SELinux also and disabled it.  After that it
worked with no errors.  I'm still surprised that people haven't run across
that error more.  Google didn't return anything intelligent at all, guess
I'll put it on my blog to help others.  Thanks

I did check the permissions of the directory and everything looks good.

[root at leatherneck home]# ls -l
total 413528
drwxr-xr-x   2 baj      baj           4096 Nov 12 10:35 baj
drwxrwxrwx   4 root     root          4096 Nov 12 11:35 samba

It also isn't mounting my home dir on the windows xp machine, same error
as before with the obvious changes in the error message, and those
permissions look good too.  I'll mention that I didn't make any changes
to the home dir section of the config file.

I did a ps of the smb process and it still looks like it runs as root,
does it spawn children that run as some other user that could be causing
this problem???
