Can't access NTFS shared folders any more

After upgrading to Lion, my NTFS shared folders are no longer accessible. I can see the shared folder, but when I try to enter from Windows 7 box it says

Windows cannot access \\path\\to\\usbsharedresource
.


Even BOOTCAMP partition which was shared and working now inaccessible...

Macbook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.4)

SMBUp is working great for me, replaces Lion's implementation of smb filesharing service (which *****) with the real deal (Samba) and provides a nice GUI to manage it all from. Does not require messing around in console. Working great for me so far on OSX Lion with Paragon NTFS sharing drives with Windows 7 PCs.
