  No idea if it's related, but a recent samba update in Fedora jumped 
versions, introducing some change or another (I forget the details) that 
made the shares inaccessible to XP boxen unless they rebooted.  (Yes, it 
sounds cliche, but it seemed to work.)  Have the users tried rebooting?
  Total shot in the dark...
