If you have a Samba share, and the Samba share has some symlinks to other folders, then you will not be able to access those "symlink folders" with a basic Samba setup.

If you do want to access the folder, you need to add this to the #### Networking #### section of your /etc/samba/smb.conf file:

wide links = yes
unix extensions = no

Restart your Samba daemon:

$ sudo service smbd restart

... and you're done! :-)
