error sharing home directories in samba

[Ries van Twisk]

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,

Ries
