SAMBA NEWBIE ?

[Herb Lewis]

You cannot do this with the automatic [homes] share (unless you want
jo to have access to everyones home share. Create a share name [ernie]
and add a "valid users = ernie jo" to that share definition. You may
also have to play around with the permissions if you want him to have
write access as well.
