[Samba] Somewhat bizzare share issue

Thanks for your help.

I'm looking at log.smbd and the client samba log that is generated for each client connection.
Using smbd -D -d2 I'm not finding any errors in log.smbd and see the following in the client log.

When connecting to "exports":

With the client "scott-desktop" and username of scott connecting to "exports" (the working share):
[2008/05/23 09:58:09, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(309)
  check_ntlm_password:  authentication for user [scott] -> [scott] -> [scott] succeeded
[2008/05/23 09:58:09, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(1033)
  scott-desktop (172.29.212.124) connect to service exports initially as user datlasn (uid=525, gid=101) (pid 77978)

And everything works for "exports".

For the "export" share (the non-working one) I see:

[2008/05/23 10:04:36, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(309)
  check_ntlm_password:  authentication for user [scott] -> [scott] -> [scott] succeeded
[2008/05/23 10:04:36, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(1033)
  scott-desktop (172.29.212.124) connect to service export initially as user scott (uid=525, gid=101) (pid 78008)
[2008/05/23 10:04:45, 1] smbd/service.c:close_cnum(1230)
  scott-desktop (172.29.212.124) closed connection to service export

So it's immediately closing the connection on me once I authenticate successfully and can't figure out why.
Verified that there isn't a user export on the system.

I'm going to try a higher debug level.

Thanks.
