samba shares in FC4

[Craig Preston]

I don't think the fact it is on a separate partiotion should have
anything to do with it. I take it the directory exists, and you haven't
accidentally created a file called public in the data directory. If you
go ls -ld /data/public it sees the directory ok?

Yes it was a typo. 

Your suggestion didn't help. I know I have the conf file right because
if I change the public share to something under / like /boot it works
fine. But because /data is a separate partition I'm having trouble.
