Public bug reported:

After configuring a share in my home folder with nautilus, I cannot
connect to the share with my username and password.


Steps to reproduce (fresh install):
1) open nautilus
2) configure share, uncheck "guest access" 
3) click "browse network" down left
4) go to your computer, try to connect to the newly created share
5) login with the username and password of your account

Expected Behaviour: you can login and see the share
Behaviour I get: Access Denied

If I check guest access, I can connect as guest. I think this has
something to do with your user not being a samba user.

Adding myself as a samba user in system-config-samba solves the problem.
