You created the samba password for your users david, steff and tracey?� who were already users on your server?

man smbpasswd
sudo smbpasswd -a david

Cheers,

Hi guys. I am having an issue with my fresh samba setup.
I built a 14.04.1 LTS Ubuntu server and set up a single mount point� (/media/data) and pointed 3 separate internal hard drives to it (eg it contains directories "music_drive", "tv_drive" & "movie_drive").
I turned "/media/data" into a samba share.
Annoyingly permissions look fine but I cannot seem to be able to either see the share on my network from other machines or connect to it. Even using the servers IP address.
Any advice? Or am I just missing something obvious.
My config is below.

samba.conf

[lspace]
�� valid users = david, steff, tracey, smbguest, @sambashare
�� guest account =
�� comment = Lspace media share
�� writeable = yes
�� force group = sambashare
�� path = /media/data
�� read list = smbguest
�� write list = david, steff, tracey
