Thanks for the attempts at helping me.
We are working to improve compatibility between SELinux and samba (F7 will have much better defaults and also some comments in smb.conf to help with it). SELinux constrain samba and prevents it from access directories if they are not labeled appropriately. If you create new directories to share them you should mark them as samba_share_t. Use: chcon -R -t samba_share_t /your/path But, make sure you don't change system directories types, or you could compromise other daemons.
