I've tried with, and without this one

Typo? Shouldn't this be 'valid users = %S'

Not according to : http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO- Collection/securing-samba.html

An excerpt:
The only user works in conjunction with the users = list, so to get the behavior you require, add the line:
users = %S

This is equivalent to adding
valid users = %S

to the definition of the [homes] share, as recommended in the smb.conf man page.

The manpage for smb.conf says:

     users
          This parameter is a synonym for username.

     username (S)
          Multiple users may be specified  in  a  comma-delimited
          list,  in  which  case  the  supplied  password will be
          tested against each username in turn (left to right).


This is very different from the "valid users" parameter. I think the securing-samba.html file is wrong in saying they are equivalent. If I'm reading it right, you want "valid users = %S".

Also unix permissions are rwx on all home dirs.

Why not just fix the unix permissions? We set home dirs to 700 and public_html to 755 here.

The home dirs are already 700. I found the problem in the global section. Removing the line: "nt acl support = no" fixed the issue. I added that line earlier to fix a roving profiles problem, but that's another story.
