Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apparmor

Official documentation for 9.10 (
https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html )
recommends to create folders to share in /srv/samba/ - however, it seems
that the apparmor profile for smbd is preventing it to access that
folder, therefore making it impossible to share folders in that folder
unless the smbd profile is turned off or in complain mode.

Maybe a warning in smb.conf about apparmor restricting the folders smbd
can share would be worth it too? I can imagine quite a few people having
issues sharing folders outside of /srv, not imagining apparmor would be
blocking that :)
