[Samba] Samba 4 AD DC "Element not found" error in Windows 8

Hi:
I've just configured a Samba 4 install as an AD DC, following the Wiki
page at https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_AD_DC_HOWTO
I've successfully joined a few machines to the domain, and am now
trying to add some simple shares.
When I add a share to smb.conf, it appears on client machines via
\\domain.example.com\sharename but trying to open any shares gives the
error "Element not found".
I can only open the \netlogon and \sysvol existing shares, but nothing
else I create is openable (always prompts with "Element not found.")
Running Ubuntu Raring Ringtail / Samba 4.0.0+dfsg1-1.
All the clients are Windows 8, I'm logged on as the domain
administrator, and all machine clocks are NTP synced.
Thanks,
Nick
