Problem Accessing Samba Server Shares

[Galen Henderson]

Hello all. I installed the latest WPI and the beta zip for SAMBA server
and it's gui tools. Everything went well except for the first install
when it said I did not have UnixRoot configured. It made the change and
at the end of the installer it errored several times and left me with an
incomplete configuration. I rebooted and reinstalled and all was well.
The nice config program ran and set up all of my shares and everything
looks good. SMBD and NMBD are both running.

Problem is when I try to access the shares from another machine . On an
ECS machine, it maps the drive but when you open it from the drives
folder, it is empty. On Windows * boxes I get the following error;

The Filename, Directory Name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

I've experimented with different shares and settings trying user and
share security. When I set the allowed users for a share and try to
connect to it, I get the access denied message but when the user is
allowed, I get the above message. Any hints?

Please set loglevel of the server to at least 5, try to access the
shares, stop the server and send me the logs.

Kind regards,
