share [g+] share [fb]

I've just installed CentOS and I'm configuring Samba. I have a share with the following in the smb.conf file:

[storage]
comment = Main storage for all use
path = /share
public = yes
browseable = yes
writable = yes
printable = no
write list = bob root
create mask = 0775
guest ok = yes
available = yes

In Windows Explorer, I can reach the page listing all the shares on the server, but I click on the shares themselves, I get an error saying that the folder cannot be found.

I have verified that the folder /share exists and I've also given it 777 permissions so it cannot be due to permissions.

What is causing this? I can post more config files if necessary.

Are you running SELINUX on this machine? If so, there are some notes on enabling directories to be used in samba shares in the smb.conf file. – barryj May 30 '11 at 15:39

Make sure "security = share" in the global section of smb.conf.

This did not correct the problem, sorry. – Richard Maddis Mar 15 '11 at 20:50
