Alas, adding that config line (added that directive wasn't present in 
the default smb.conf) hasn't made any difference.

While I can't read the contents of any files when navigating via my 
client mount points., interestingly I *can* read the contents of files 
when I connect to the share using the Nautilus "Network Servers" dialog 
- so clearly Gnome VFS is doing something clever that regular samba / 
CIFS mounting is not.
