Uhm, I hope that using X: in both lines was a typo, you aren't going to mount different shares on the same letter.


Pardon me, I misspoke. Of course you can use the same drive letter on different workstations.


I.e. I was hoping that the same Samba server, could "service" multiple Windows workgroups. I think you've answered my question already, i.e. that this is not possible, and we would need a 2nd Samba server to service the user accounts on the 2nd windows workgroup. Is this the case?


Actually, there have been threads on the samba list about running multiple workgroups on one server. You essentially run a second instance with its own smb.conf file. Look at the man page for smbd, I believe the -s option for smbd allows you to specify the smbd file


        Authenticating against 2 domains housed on the same server.
 and
        Sharing the same share with members of 2 domains.
        
are different questions.

Inter-domain trusts may be what you want.
