Sorry to drag this up again, but I thought it fit as the symptoms were similar and the fix was the same.
After another samba upgrade the other day - I'm not quite sure when it initially hit, I hadn't upgraded my system in a week and a half or so - but upon the upgrade when I went to load a share on another machine (a Mac), it wouldn't let me get past the main folder, but this time it wasn't empty, it simply told me I didn't have the proper permissions, when it should have. On a lark I decided to change the follow symlinks from 'no' to 'yes' as the fix listed for this bug and it fixed it. I didn't have time to mess around with it and investigate why at the time, so I left it in its' working state with the promise to come and investigate when time allowed for it. So, here I am. If I should pose this query elsewhere as well, please let me know.
