I changed that setting and it had me log out and back in, but still
did not work. I chose a test folder (named test), went to properties
and turned on sharing for several users. I am pretty sure linux is
recognizing that there is a share name because I get this error when I
put in a non-existent share in /etc/fstab:
[root at localhost ~]# mount /win1
mount error(111): Connection refused
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)
What am I doing wrong on the windows end or what do I need to do?
