On further study, I strongly suspect my mods to the config file are being overwritten on reboot. Apparently the NAS has firmware that restores basic stuff from a read-only partition on booting.
Does it have a persistent rc.local or cron (thinking @reboot here)? We've got a PVR with that kind of behaviour (custom hacks vanishing on reboot).
This will require some hackery to sort out, but doesn't seem to be anything directly related to Samba (nor to Fedora of course), so I won't pursue it here for now. Thanks to everyone who tried to help.
As a final suggestion, have you got a home linux server that's always on? If you get nowhere with Samba on the NAS, there's always NFS from the NAS to your server, then Samba from there. That way you'd have control over the Samba software.
