os x leopard samba networking

Asked by poko2121 in Leopard (MAC OS 10.5), Apple Networking, Windows Networking

Tags: leopard, samba

Hi guys I'm running Mac OS X leopard on my laptop and trying to network with pc's in the house.  The problem is that when I enable sharing on a folder on the mac it won't show up in the "network places" of windows xp on the pc.  The only way it will show up is if the folder I am sharing is not in my home folder.

So if I place a file in the root folder and share it then it will show up in windows network shares, but otherwise if it's in my home folder it won't show up.

Any ideas?
Please help
