I'm not a commandline smarty, but I was wondering if there were a way to 
try to access the share from the commandline instead of the GUI file 
manager, then when the authentication failed, there might be some kind 
of failure message that could be useful.

Or, maybe I should look at the situation of the desired share w/o using 
the Webmin, so I could tell if there were something 'wrong w/ it' - the 
share condition.
