[my answer yesterday]
man smb.conf:
username map (G)
This option allows you to specify a file containing
a mapping of usernames from the clients to the
server. This can be used for several purposes. The
most common is to map usernames that users use on
DOS or Windows machines to those that the UNIX box
uses. The other is to map multiple users to a sin�
gle username so that they can more easily share
files.

This will solve your problem.

In your smb.conf [globals] add:
username map = /etc/smbusers
In your /etc/smbusers put:
cs02929 = eng.calculo
