    First thing I would do is change security to "user" and make sure you have
    a smb user created that matches the user/pass of your account on your
    laptop. Add anoter variable to the global section "valid users = (your
    username)" and add it again under your share. I had that problem at first
    too, I fixed it by changing security to user and then ran into the browse
    problem which I finally figured out yesterday. Let me know what happens
    after those suggestions. Here is part of my smb.conf file:
