1) I'm not sure about htis but from the top of my head I think you
have to remove 'path = /home/%U'n from the homes section.
Samba already knows that [homes] maps to the users home
directory.
2) Also I think that a workgroup name of '1' is invalid. It's better to
supply a real name like 'account' or 'managers'.
3) 'host allow 192.168.0.' is invalid, you must use this form: 'host
allow = 127.0.0.1 192.168.4.' for testing it's save to just leave it out,
samba will then try to bind itself to all interfaces and if you sepcify it
add the localhost (127.0.0.1)
SO Far,
