Are you looking for this document to be shared through the Samba server? If so, you should move the folder/document onto the Samba share, and then either automount the Samba share so that it appears as a local folder, or create your symlink to link it to wherever you want to be able to access those items.

Linking the doc from your PC to the Samba share will require some very unique permissions and configurations to share that with everyone else who has access.
