Well if you did what I described you gave the other user (ben in my

your data.
If it as we surmise, then its nothing to do with samba and everything
to do with the windows client (and you giving away your password :-) )
Indeed that is what is being observed, for one particular user on one
particular machine, times 2. Which is something I have never seen
before, nor can I replicate it anywhere else, nor does it make any sense
- normally such authenticating does not survive that logon session. Yet
alone rebooting, and daily for a week with no attempt to access the share.
It's a bit like saying I did "sudo some-command" on someone's linux box,
shut down the computer, then that user came back the next day and
continued to have sudo access.
I'll consider the issue a windows one from here and resolve in another
manner. Clearly the credentials are (unexpectedly) being cached
somewhere/how. Thanks for the replies though, it has been helpful in
the clarification and confirmation it has provided.
