Did you add the users to samba with smbpasswd? Samba has its own user list that is separate from Linux. If you don't want passwords at all, consider using the Guest account.

I solved the problem,now i can see the share resource(The share name is adm),but i cant enter that directory.
This error appears:
\\192.168.200.30\adm is not accessible.you might not have permision to use this network resource!

But in samba i gave permission to everyone.

help me please

/home is already set up for each user - you should not use this as a common access directory.
Create a directory /data and set the permissions using chmod 777
Now configure this as a samba share and point it to /data then set the samba permission for everyone.
