Unable to Connect to New Linux Samba Share

from LinuxQuestions.org on (#53DHG)
I have Fedora 32 workstation running on a new machine. I created a samba share, but can't access it from other machines (Windows and Mac). I have enabled SSH, and can SSH in from these other machines. So, network connectivity is not the issue. They are all on the same subnet (192.168.1.*). All I get is "Windows can't communicate with this device". Any help will be appreciated! (smb.conf, systemctl status, and log file below)

smb.conf:
Code:[global]
