Well to be fare I have had that line in there for a long time and it never
occurred to me that it could be the issue because the smb.conf has been in
use for over a year maybe more. What changed was the way the default tools
set up the connection sharing.
Also I'm not recommending anyone else to use this if they don't want to. I'm
just pointing out the fact that they could have problems if they do use it
and what the problem is.
