LinuxQuestions.org - [SOLVED] SAMBA is not working

Hi Guys!
I am new to Linux, I have cent OS version 6, and I installed samba version 3.3 on it. For some reasons i cannot upgrade my machine, this server is in production environment so please give me something which is real not just to test, I can see i can access shares from windows machines in my network if i create new directory from scratch things are beautiful till hare, as I mentioned this is production environment I already have some directories created in home directory but if i try to share those i can see from windows side but i cannot browse through them, i get an error message 'user does not have permissions to access this folder'
or windows credential window pops up and does not take any credentials, I need help is there any certain way to share already created folders or something I did assign permissions to all folders but no success, i have been working on this for more than 24 hours with out any break.
Any response will be highly appreciated, if you need more details i can provide, please spare some time and help me out, this is a humble request from a professional to professionals.

My smb.conf file

"/etc/samba/smb.conf" 311L, 10069C
Press ENTER or type command to continue# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
# many!) most of which are not shown in this example
#
# For a step to step guide on installing, configuring and using samba,
# read the Samba-HOWTO-Collection. This may be obtained from:
# http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samb...Collection.pdf
#
# Many working examples of smb.conf files can be found in the
# Samba-Guide which is generated daily and can be downloaded from:
# http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-Guide.pdf
#
# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash)
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
# may wish to enable
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm"
# to check that you have not made any basic syntactic errors.
#
#---------------
# SELINUX NOTES:
#
# If you want to use the useradd/groupadd family of binaries please run:
# setsebool -P samba_domain_controller on
#
# If you want to share home directories via samba please run:
# setsebool -P samba_enable_home_dirs on
#
# If you create a new directory you want to share you should mark it as
# "samba_share_t" so that selinux will let you write into it.
# Make sure not to do that on system directories as they may already have
# been marked with othe SELinux labels.
#
# Use ls -ldZ /path to see which context a directory has
#
# Set labels only on directories you created!
# To set a label use the following: chcon -t samba_share_t /path
#
# If you need to share a system created directory you can use one of the
# following (read-only/read-write):
# setsebool -P samba_export_all_ro on
# or
# setsebool -P samba_export_all_rw on
#
# If you want to run scripts (preexec/root prexec/print command/...) please
# put them into the /var/lib/samba/scripts directory so that smbd will be
# allowed to run them.
# Make sure you COPY them and not MOVE them so that the right SELinux context
# is applied, to check all is ok use restorecon -R -v /var/lib/samba/scripts

#======================= Global Settings =====================================

[global]

# ----------------------- Network Related Options -------------------------
#
# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: MIDEARTH

# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field

#
# netbios name can be used to specify a server name not tied to the hostname

#
# Interfaces lets you configure Samba to use multiple interfaces

# If you have multiple network interfaces then you can list the ones

# you want to listen on (never omit localhost)

#
# Hosts Allow/Hosts Deny lets you restrict who can connect, and you can

# specifiy it as a per share option as well

#
# workgroup = WORKGROUP

security = share
guest account = nobody
map to guest = Bad User
server role = standalone server
# server string = Samba Server Version %v

# netbios name = MYSERVER

# interfaces = lo eth0 192.168.12.2/24 192.168.13.2/24

# hosts allow = 127. 192.168.12. 192.168.13.

# --------------------------- Logging Options -----------------------------

#
# Log File let you specify where to put logs and how to split them up.

#
# Max Log Size let you specify the max size log files should reach

# logs split per machine
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
# max 50KB per log file, then rotate
max log size = 50

----------------------- Standalone Server Options ------------------------

#
# Scurity can be set to user, share(deprecated) or server(deprecated)

#
# Backend to store user information in. New installations should

# use either tdbsam or ldapsam. smbpasswd is available for backwards

# compatibility. tdbsam requires no further configuration.

# security = user

# passdb backend = tdbsam

# ----------------------- Domain Members Options ------------------------

#
# Security must be set to domain or ads

#
# Use the realm option only with security = ads

# Specifies the Active Directory realm the host is part of

#
# Backend to store user information in. New installations should

# use either tdbsam or ldapsam. smbpasswd is available for backwards

# compatibility. tdbsam requires no further configuration.

#
# Use password server option only with security = server or if you can't

# use the DNS to locate Domain Controllers

# The argument list may include:

# password server = My_PDC_Name [My_BDC_Name] [My_Next_BDC_Name]

# or to auto-locate the domain controller/s

# password server = *

# security = domain

# passdb backend = tdbsam

# realm = MY_REALM

# password server = <NT-Server-Name>

# ----------------------- Domain Controller Options ------------------------

#
# Security must be set to user for domain controllers

#
# Backend to store user information in. New installations should

# use either tdbsam or ldapsam. smbpasswd is available for backwards

# compatibility. tdbsam requires no further configuration.

#
# Domain Master specifies Samba to be the Domain Master Browser. This

# allows Samba to collate browse lists between subnets. Don't use this

# if you already have a Windows NT domain controller doing this job

#
# Domain Logons let Samba be a domain logon server for Windows workstations.

#
# Logon Scrpit let yuou specify a script to be run at login time on the client

# You need to provide it in a share called NETLOGON

#
# Logon Path let you specify where user profiles are stored (UNC path)

#
# Various scripts can be used on a domain controller or stand-alone

# machine to add or delete corresponding unix accounts

#
# security = user

# passdb backend = tdbsam

# domain master = yes

# domain logons = yes

# the login script name depends on the machine name
; logon script = %m.bat

# the login script name depends on the unix user used
; logon script = %u.bat

; logon path = \\%L\Profiles\%u

# disables profiles support by specifing an empty path
; logon path =

; add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd "%u" -n -g users

; delete user from group script = /usr/sbin/userdel "%u" "%g"

; delete group script = /usr/sbin/groupdel "%g"

# ----------------------- Browser Control Options ----------------------------

#
# set local master to no if you don't want Samba to become a master

# browser on your network. Otherwise the normal election rules apply

#
# OS Level determines the precedence of this server in master browser

# elections. The default value should be reasonable

#
# Preferred Master causes Samba to force a local browser election on startup

# and gives it a slightly higher chance of winning the election

; local master = no

; os level = 33

; preferred master = yes

#----------------------------- Name Resolution -------------------------------

# Windows Internet Name Serving Support Section:

# Note: Samba can be either a WINS Server, or a WINS Client, but NOT both

#
# - WINS Support: Tells the NMBD component of Samba to enable it's WINS Server

#
# - WINS Server: Tells the NMBD components of Samba to be a WINS Client

#
# - WINS Proxy: Tells Samba to answer name resolution queries on

# behalf of a non WINS capable client, for this to work there must be

# at least one WINS Server on the network. The default is NO.

#
# DNS Proxy - tells Samba whether or not to try to resolve NetBIOS names

# via DNS nslookups.

# wins support = yes

# wins server = w.x.y.z

# wins proxy = yes

# dns proxy = yes

# --------------------------- Printing Options -----------------------------

#
# Load Printers let you load automatically the list of printers rather

# than setting them up individually

#
# Cups Options let you pass the cups libs custom options, setting it to raw

# for example will let you use drivers on your Windows clients

#
# Printcap Name let you specify an alternative printcap file

#
# You can choose a non default printing system using the Printing option

# load printers = yes

# cups options = raw

; printcap name = /etc/printcap

#obtain list of printers automatically on SystemV
; printcap name = lpstat

; printing = cups

# --------------------------- Filesystem Options ---------------------------

#
# The following options can be uncommented if the filesystem supports

# Extended Attributes and they are enabled (usually by the mount option

# user_xattr). Thess options will let the admin store the DOS attributes

# in an EA and make samba not mess with the permission bits.

#
# Note: these options can also be set just per share, setting them in global

# makes them the default for all shares

; map archive = no

; map hidden = no

; map read only = no

; map system = no

; store dos attributes = yes
