I'm no expert on this, Therese, but I doubt the advice you've been given that 
setting to permissive is the same as having it disabled.  Why?  Because I had 
quite a number of problems with it set to permissive, mainly ones that 
stopped samba working.  Once I had sorted out the necessary commands samba 
has behaved without problems.  If it was as ineffective as setting it to 
disabled I would not have had to do this.  I'd say set it to permissive, use 
setroubleshooter, and if you still can't sort it, either post here what 
setroubleshooter says about it or google for parts of the message.
