Is nmd running along with smb? Not having nmd running after an upgrade 
for me caused a problem where I could access the share if I used the ip 
address but not the server name.

Someone mentioned the services being individual now and starting and 
having nmd started at boot solved my access problem.

Just an idea since the suggestion was right on to fix my problem.
