[Samba] Samba 3.5.6: can't follow symlinks on shares

Hello,

Samba version: 3.5.6, OS CentOS 5.5 64-bit.

The problem: I have a share with symlinks leading outside the share. 
After mounting the shared resource (cifs), I can't proceed through 
symlinks (permission denied).

Setting options

follow symlinks = yes
wide links = yes

for the share doesn't change Samba behaviour. Could someone enlighten me 
on how to handle this?

Thanks.
Sincerely,
Konstantin
