SMB shares

[jep]

Greetings

Just finished installing freeNAS 9.10.2 and am trying to set up my shares.
I would to create the following shares to begin with:

Folder (ower, owner group)

myFolder (me, no group)
wifesFolder (wife, no group)
shared (root, homeUsers)
apps (root, homeUsers)
movies (root, homeUsers)
music (root, homeUsers)
photos (root, homeUsers)

I created myself as a user to begin with and added me to a new homeUsers user group.
Then I created a SFZpool consisting of all my 3x 2TB drives (left root as owner and wheel as group), and created a new set called myFolderSet (owner = myUser, group = noGroup, sharetype = windows)
Then I made a SMB share called "myName" that points to the dataset i just created, and left the "apply default permissions" checkbox checked.

The only user that has access to the share on windows is root, it's visible to myUser though
If i examine the shares security tab in windows (as root) it shows that myUser has full access, and so does "noGroup". All other users have read only.

What am I doing wrong?

Additional questions:
Is it possible to set the SMB shares up so that they don't show to users that do not have permission?
Do people just use the root account, or do they create a power user for "root access"?
How does a "home folder" work?

Is it possible to set the SMB shares up so that they don't show to users that do not have permission?

I think that's the default behavior. If someone doesn't have read permissions, they don't even get to see the share (though this is done client-side, I believe).

As for the bulk of the questions, @m0nkey_ has a couple of videos that should help, in the resources section:
