I don't know if [%U] works.  [homes] should give the same effect.

For what you are trying to do, use

  security = user

instead of "share".  Also, you will need

  encrypt passwords = no

so Samba can use /etc/passwd passwords.  (This might or might not be
the default, I can't remember.)  Finally, in order to use unencrypted
passwords, you must apply the registry hack to all your NT machines (at
least for NT4SP3 and above).  The .reg file is in the docs/ directory
-- apply the file using the "import" function of REGEDIT.EXE.

For details on that last bit, read docs/textdocs/ENCRYPTION.txt (or
wherever ENCRYPTION.txt is in your Samba version).
