Restricting samba clients to a single user

[Andrej Borsenkow]

One way is as following:

put

  include = /usr/local/lib/smb.d/usr.%m

in your master smb.conf and for every PC with name %m create the above
file with

  valid users = <your user name>

See smb.conf(5) about %m, include and valid users.

If file won't be found, the include line will simply be ignored, so some
of your PCs can be restricted and other not.

cheers
