When you have security = share you don't authenticate as a user and as such you don't have a home directory. I would suggest sticking with user level security, share level is a left over from the 9x days and is pretty much obsolete.

I have checked, and my line is definitely security = user. However, I still can't see my /home, even though I can see all the other shares. What other conditions can cause this?

Anne,

I bet you have changed the default permission for your home directories from 0755 (rwxr-xr-x) to something else. If I recall you need world r-x for this to work with homes configured in smb.conf as:

[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   browseable = no
   writable = yes

        Give it a shot.
