[Samba] Can only see files one level deep

[Gaiseric Vandal]

I have limited experience with Macs in conjunction with samba but so far 
it seems to have been working fine for me.

What happens if you create a directory with 777 permissions in unix?   
can you "ls -l" the directory from a mac terminal?  My guess is that one 
of the "x" bits got lost so you can't traverse the directory.
