files that I added shortly after setting up Samba and getting it running are simply not showing in client systems.

Hmm... Some initial questions to help with debugging:

• Have you checked the logs (both samba logs and system logs) to see if there are any messages that might be relevant to what's going on?
• Are the new files showing up correctly on the system hosting the shares (when you access directly on that system)?
• If you stop samba (instead of restarting it), do the shares actually become inaccessible -- as expected?
• What happens if you modify/rename a (preferably unimportant!) file that does show up currently? Can clients see the change?
• What distro are you running on the system hosting the shares?
