That is true. It will be corrected in the next release. Sorry.

I can't reproduce that behaviour here (one of my test users just has the
standard NETMBX/TMPMBX privileges, and it works OK). 
When does that happen ? Is it immediately when you try to open a share, or
is it later, and if it is, when ?
Could you please send me the SMBD_STARTUP.LOG file which is on the default
directory of the SMBD user defined in TCPIP (probably SYS$MANAGER). That
file should contain the traceback of the failing SMBD process, so I can
study it.
Could you please send me your SMB.CONF file too, just in case.
