[Samba] unable to access HOMES share

[Adam Williams]

I am unable to mount my home directories on my Fedora 8 samba 3.0.28 
server, I have the following share defined:

[homes]
  comment = Home Directories
  valid users = %S
  read only = no
  browseable = No
  writeable = Yes
  hide dot files = yes
  public = no
  create mask = 0600
  force create mode = 0600
  directory mask = 0700
  force directory mode = 0700

and the permissions on /home/adam are:

[root at bldg2 samba]# ls -al /home/adam
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 adam users  6 2008-02-12 15:03 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root  17 2008-02-12 15:03 ..

and either way I try to access it, I get the error:

[root at bldg2 samba]# mount -t cifs //bldg2/homes /mnt -o 
username=adam,password=xxxxxxx
retrying with upper case share name
mount error 6 = No such device or address
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)
[root at bldg2 samba]# mount -t cifs //bldg2/adam /mnt -o 
username=adam,password=xxxxxxx
retrying with upper case share name
mount error 6 = No such device or address
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)

and what gets written in the log file is:
