below:

Then it is definitely a Yast problem.

You said you used Yast to modify smb.conf, but your changes didn't get into smb.conf. This can only be a Yast problem, it is this tool that is trying to change smb.conf. I suggest you go and ask OpenSuse about Yast. Rowland
Hi Rowland, Thanks for your help, I have been suspecting Suse's Yast too! Is there a samba configuration GUI tool I can use to launch it independent of Yast? This would help to chase yet another problem!
