Bro, read the documentation. And use SWAT to configure samba, it works really well and
helps keep things in order

Sorta. as root on the linx box (one at a time, k? after the first one works then get
the second one working) type:
smbpasswd -a johnny
and then give it the password you want. This assumes, of course, that you want a samba
user named johnny, hopefully there's a system user named johnny too. It will use it's
own file, /etc/smbpasswd - UNLESS you've told the config file to use another one

It means you do not have shares setup, at least not correctly

Nothing will work, it's not an accessible share

Good. If the usernames match perfectly between the Windows and Linux boxen it will be
easier to deal with.
Make sure you have "Encrypted Passwords" set to yes

Why didn't you use the deafult [homes] share which takes care of it automaticlly:
[homes]
comment = Uesr home dirs
browseable = no
read only = no
create mode = 0750

Argh.. I don't have time to read all that. work on getting one box's samba set up
correctly so that you can connect to it from windows, then we'll work on the rest.
Post to the list, don't mail me directly please.
