This does survive a reboot as it puts samba_enable_home_dirs in 
/etc/selinux/targeted/booleans.local.  Unfortunately I tried doing both 
this and

setsebool -P smb_use_home_dirs=1

to no avail.

smbclient //machine/swalton

still throws a NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME error when I try to connect to 
my home directory with SELinux set to "enforcing", and the error message 
in the smb log file reads

'/home/swalton' does not exist or is not a directory, when connecting to
