You can totally fix this by setting up your home drive to DENY guest, and thereofr ya

TRY this [homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        read only = No
        browseable = No
        invalid users = nobody
        guest ok = no
Then in your smbusers, set this up.
# Unix_name = SMB_name1 SMB_name2 ...
root = administrator admin
nobody = guest pcguest smbguest
and go ahead and setup the username nobody up in samba with no pass, and you 
should be all set.


What benefits does this offer over the normal samba guest access? As far
as I can see it is more complicated (you are creating accounts that
aren't needed, generating a share for it, and then denying access to the
share) and less user friendly (users have to login rather than letting
"map to guest" sort things out).
