[Samba] Can't access shares - additional information

[Carl Carpenter]

I realized I forgot to include my smb.conf file:

[root at custer etc]# testparm -s
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
Processing section "[homes]"
Processing section "[printers]"
Processing section "[tmp]"
Processing section "[Intranet]"
Loaded services file OK.
Server role: ROLE_DOMAIN_MEMBER
[global]
        workgroup = HCCMHMRC
        server string = Intranet
        security = DOMAIN
        password server = colnago
        log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
        max log size = 50
        preferred master = No
        dns proxy = No
        wins server = 192.168.0.7
        default service = Intranet
        cups options = raw

[homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        read only = No

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = //var/spool/samba
        printable = Yes
        browseable = No

[tmp]
        comment = Temporary file space
        path = /tmp
        read only = No
        guest ok = Yes

[Intranet]
        path = /var/www/html
        read only = No
        create mask = 0774
        directory mask = 0775
        guest ok = Yes

I can access the tmp share and the Printer share.  This tells me that there
is not an issue finding the Samba server.

Permissions on Intranet share (/var/www/html):

[root at custer www]# pwd
/var/www
[root at custer www]# ls -al html
total 16
drwxrwxr-x 2 apache www-data 4096 Sep 18 10:27 .
drwxr-xr-x 8 root   root     4096 Sep 18 10:27 ..

Ccarpenter is a member of www-data.

I cleared out the samba log for my machine.  Then I tried to access the
Intranet share.  It asked for username and password which, of course,
failed.  Here's the contents of the log after that attempt.

[2008/03/14 09:39:23, 1] smbd/ipc.c:api_fd_reply(290)
  api_fd_reply: INVALID PIPE HANDLE: 72df

  osc00062 (192.168.0.101) closed connection to service Intranet

Then, looking through Webmin at the connections, I see this:

 	6097 	IPC$ 	ccarpenter 	ccarpenter 	osc00062 	Fri
Mar 14 09:43:38 2008 	None

Which also coincides with the appearance of the Printers share which is not
visible when I first open Custer through Network Neighborhood.

Is this an old problem that I'm supposed to find the answer in an obvious
place, or has it stumped everyone out there?
