I rebooted to make sure they kick off when starting - and they do. That part is now good. I also checked the config, and the parts I understood looked good. Workgroup was set, print sharing is set, directories are not browseable - that might be my next step.

I made them all the same now. I still don't see my home directory, but will mess around a little more. I do see the workgroup and the printer, so it's going in the right direction.
