[SOLVED] Samba access denied

I installed samba and smbnetfs on three of my computers and things were going swimmingly about a month ago when I set it up orginally with smbnetfs but now it doesn't seem to work properly. I can access two of my home shares from all of my computers but I can't access my laptop from any of them. They all have the exact same smb.conf's so I'm really not sure what's going on. I can't manually mount the laptop shares from any computer (using smbclient or mount), I get a permission denied error, so it doesn't look like an smbnetfs problem. Any ideas?

EDIT: Here's a copy of what my smb.conf looks like from testparm:

[global]
    workgroup = MYGROUP
    server string = Samba Server
    log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
    max log size = 50
    dns proxy = No

[homes]
    comment = Home Directories
    read only = No
    browseable = No

EDIT #2: Permissions look good on the laptop, the folder is rwx by me and the partition is mounted rw.

EDIT #3: Apparently I didn't add the user on this computer as I remembered as per https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Samba#Adding_users
