Hi Eric, Thanks for your help. We actually figured out our problem. We had a variable set to "Read Only" which was preventing us from getting to our data.
Thanks again for your help and prompt response!

This is usually caused by a permission problem. Did you copy username.map from the VOB server to the View server? What are the exact details in the view_log on the client? Is there anything in the error_log? What is the ALBD Account? Is there a corresponding UNIX account? Do you realize that performance of views through Samba will probably be 50-200+% worse than a local view? If you increase the Samba debug level to 3 and repeat the operation, what is in the Samba log? Do you have 'log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m' in your smb.conf? This will make it easier to debug. -- Eric M.
