[mdlug] Samba issues.

[R Kannan]

Hello

I have been trying to set up a samba server on Ubuntu 12.04 so that I
can share videos, recordings and pictures. But I am not able to see any
of the shares from Windows 7 laptops. It has been a while since I set up
Samba and so I might be missing something.

My /etc/samba/smb.conf looks like...

[global]
        workgroup = kannanhome
        server string = %h server (Samba, Mythbuntu)
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
        max log size = 1000
        syslog = 0
        panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
        dns proxy = no
        security = share
;       encrypt passwords = yes
        guest ok = yes
        guest account = mythtv

[recordings]
        comment = TV Recordings
        path = /srv/MythTV/recordings
        guest ok = yes
;       writeable = No
        create mask = 0777
        directory mask = 0777
        force user = nobody
        force group = nogroup
;       browseable = yes

[videos]
        comment = Videos
        path = /srv/MythTV/videos
        guest ok = yes
;       writeable = no
        create mask = 0660
        directory mask = 0770
        force user = mythtv
        force group = mythtv
;       browseable = yes

[music]
        comment = Music
        path = /srv/MythTV/music
        guest ok = yes
;       writeable = no
        create mask = 0660
        directory mask = 0770
        force user = mythtv
        force group = mythtv
;       browseable = yes


mythtv is a valid user on the ubuntu box. Any ideas?
