Samba Media Server, asking for confirmation

I am a newbie to samba, and here is my samba config file. I am hoping to get confirmation that there is no security holes here and if I have it setup right. The user I have the guest account mapped to is the main user on the server, however I am hoping this creates no issues as it is also the user name on my netbook which I use to access the server. I am able to access the files easily on my netbook, but I suspect that might not be the case on any other computers in the house, on my girlfriends archlinux laptop the Server doesn't show up under "Network" in her file manager.
