samba

Hi, I'm creating a SMB share on a windows machine using the net share command. I write

net share MyCompany_server___0.0.1-SNAPSHOT___server=E:\JavaWorkspace\Product\src\generated\server

Then, this share is visible by other Windows machine in network shares of my machine, but not be accessed. Is there an option I forgot to set ?

EDITED due to comment

Accessing the share using an OpenSUSE machine brings the "The folder contents could not be displayed." message.
Accessing the share using the Windows machine sharing that folder succeeds without any issue
Accessing the share using another Windows machine displays

MyCompany_server_0.0.1-SNAPSHOT_server is not accessible. Access refused
