You are doing it right. It maps the variable %U (the name samba gets from you on your windows box when you connect) to the UNIX name you specify. NT is the one having the problem, as it is getting your UNIX username. This is expected behavior.

I checked this using Ethereal. The environment variables $USER and $LOGNAME are both set to 'steve'. # smbclient //<Windows computer>/Shared -U steveb%<my password> works OK. Can someone tell me how to do this mapping correctly? I'm using samba-2.2.7-2 on a RH8.0 box.
