You want to use a security level of user not domain.  If you could send me
your smb.conf I can take a look at it for you.  I jsut finished setting up a
couple Samba domain controllers in both 2.0.7 and 2.2.

If you "reply to all" the rest of the discussion group will be able to
help as well.

OK, so you're using DOMAIN security, but you're not sharing any
directories.
What type/version of UN*X are you using? Also, sending a copy of your
smb.conf would probably be useful. What error message(s) are you getting
that led you to determine that those specific permissions were required
for login?
