But for now I can even get my laptop to conect to the server I can ping it and the sever can ping the laptop, I even see homefront under maping lol but can connect to it. here is my samba config. and smbaclient
[global]
; General server settings
netbios name = homefront
server string =
workgroup = homefront
announce version = 5.0
socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_KEEPALIVE SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192

security = user
null passwords = true
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers

;valid users = %S
;create mode = 0600
;directory mode = 0755
;browseable = no
;read only = no
;veto files = /*.{*}/.*/mail/bin/
