Are you able to authenticate to the samba server from the Windows 7
machine?

What is the out put from smbclient -L localhost -U admin?

I saw that you have the home directory enabled, by default SELinux does
not permit access to the home directory, unless you enable the boolean

$ sudo setsebool -P samba_enable_home_dirs on

When you try to access the samba share from the windows 7 machine, what
is happening? Are you being prompt for the credentials?

If you do not have a backup of the smb.conf file, I have placed a copy
from a clean install [0]
