[Samba] OS/2 Warp 4 Access Issues

OK, here are the versions:
OS/2 Warp 4.50
Debian Etch
Samba 3.0.24-6etch4
linux kernel 2.6.18
I actually started having problems before upgrading to etch. Then, I was on a
2.4 kernel, and had upgraded to what was then the latest security fix for
samba for the debian "stable" version previous to etch. I was hoping that
upgrading to etch might fix the problem, but it did not. FWIW, I did a
"clean" upgrade to etch, using the netinstall CD, so all of the previous
binaries and config files were over-written (nothing left behind to cause
problems).
As for the problem... on the OS/2 box, the shares on the debian box are
displayed (just as the shares on the Win9x box are), but when I "click" on
any of the debian shares, OS/2 reports that "No objects were found that
match the specified find criteria." So, none of the files that reside
in the shared folders are displayed. It is as if the shares have no files
in them (but they do!).
OS/2 does appear to access the "PDF Printer" share OK, and acts as
though it is printing to it, but I have no idea where the PDF files that
it is "printing" are being saved. ;-) It cannot access any of the
disk shares.
Here is the smb.conf config file (with certain bits replaced with 'X'):
[global]

Thanks for your assistance!
