I have the usual entry in smb.conf on my FC4 server:
[homes] comment = Home Directories read only = No browseable = No
As an additional wrinkle, home directories on the server are physically on /users but get mounted on demand on /home on both the server and on client workstations using a typical LDAP/autofs setup.
With SELinux enabled, both smbclient and users on Windows machines fail to get access to home directories. What magic chcon invocation do I need?
I had this issue too, solved by:
From Gnome desktop panel menus:
Desktop->System Settings->Security Level
(Alternatively run system-config-securitylevel from a command line)
Select SElinux tab, scroll down in the box at the bottom and expand the Samba section, and check "Allow samba to share users home directories"
