When I look at my samba share //tower/homes (from windows) it shows the content of one of my other shares, //tower/alex. When I look at /mnt/user/homes I see the correct content. I tried creating a second share named homes2, where I deleted the /mnt/user/homes2 folder and instead linked /mnt/user/homes (so homes2 is a symlink pointing to /mnt/user/homes). That samba share gives me the homes content as expected. 

 

Any idea as to what could cause this?

 

I tried booting with no plugins an no modified go-script, but it didn't change anything. I'm running unRaid 6.4.0, the problem has been there for a very long time though.

I cannot see anything strange in the shares.cfg. I attached a non-anonymized diagnostics, so the share-names are visible. I don't think there's sensitive info there. 

 

I have also added the syslog from the clean boot (without plugins and go-modifiations). The diagnostics is from regular boot with plugins.

Looks like a default / reserved share created by Samba

Oh thanks a lot, that would explain it. I have just renamed the share to home, and that's good enough for me.
