Rpi2 samba server not listing usb hard drives

hi guys! i have osmc installed on a rpi2 with samba server up and running, loving it so far! however, when connecting to the server using my mac, i can only see media folders named movies, music, etc, but all of them are empty and i cannot see my usb hard drives! i have been researching the web for hours but can’t find a soulution, would you please help me out? thanksss

On the pi, can you see the drives mounted in /media?

yes, I can. My movie library has been updated with all my movies in the drive. however, I still have plenty of movies in my mac that I can not get to transfer to de pi. It is incredibly upsetting. thanks a lot for your help!

Please post the output of the following commands:

sudo journalctl | paste-log
sudo net usershare info | paste-log

I’m having the same problem…

Outputs to commands are:

Your second log link does not work. Please try to post that one again.

I see pages and pages of the following error:

Are you trying to mount a cifs mount in fstab ? What does your fstab file look like ?
