What do the Samba logs say? The standard system logs? Can you access the
files locally? Also, since your home shares are exported quite
differently, I'd check permissions and the directives in your smb.conf
file for your non-/home shares.

Well, it's been done (we use XFS here for the home directories and the
other data directories exported via Samba), and aside from the smbfs 2GB
limit things are known to be smooth between XFS and Samba so I wouldn't
give up if I were you. :)
