Just installed kernel update 4.12.14-lp151.28.13-default and other updates issued yesterday and LVM1 came to life, again no changes by me to SAMBA or elsewhere. I added a symlink from a directory in LVM0 to LVM1 for easier admin and I have the exact same problem - permission denied on that symlink, though the LVM1 & LMV2 shares, and symlink that was failing before are now OK. This is yet more bizarre. It's like it takes a few days for some cache or cached credentials to expire or be acknowledged ?
