Everytime I have to manually map it thru Net Neighbourhood or check the option of Auto Mapping so that >it is available in the next login. It helps, but I want to control which user can access which share. The >share available to the user shall appear mapped whenever he/she logs in.
Ok, heres what you need to do. You need to create a user account on you Linux OS for each user on the windoze PC. Then, you need to create a samba account for each username (smbpasswd). Once you do that, then you will be able to make a share selectively available to users. For example:
[Music] comment = Music files on Linux PC path = /home/music valid users = my_favorite_user browseable = yes writable = no
So, on the network, the above share will be visible to all users BUT only my_favorite_user will be able to gain access to its contents ;)
