Some of us have found that SELinux prevents Samba from working properly. In
one case published earlier turning off SELinux features completely fixed
the issue. In my case I went into Desktop/System Settings/Security Level
SELinux Tab and turned off SELinux features for Samba. After that my shares
re-appeared and seem to be working normally.
