This is really bad advise. If you want to restrict access to home
directories, they appropriate syntax is:
[homes]
valid users = %S
Once a user is correctly authenticated with 'user level' security, it is
not possible for Samba to force re-authentication, only access control.
If you set 'security=share' (and accept the consequences that imposes)
then passwords are required per-share, which may be closer to what is
wanted here.
