Hi Lorenzo,
I think the schema proposed is much simpler...

let's say you have, machines mickey and minnie. Then you have shares
sales, marketing and accounting.


The three shares are defined in the file /etc/smb.conf.sales,
/etc/smb.conf.marketing, /etc/smb.conf.accounting

mickey can see sales and marketing, so the samba file is
/etc/smb.conf.mickey will be
include=/etc/smb.conf.sales
include=/etc/smb.conf.marketing

minnie can see accounting only, its samba file is /etc/smb.conf.minnie,
and the content will be:
include=/etc/smb.conf.accounting

The global /etc/smb.conf will be
****global definitions***
include=/etc/smb.conf.%m

Bye
Marco
