[Samba] how to disable home directory to some users?

[Jordi Castells]

I try this sugestion and is not exactly what I want:

with a global 'broweable = no' no one see the home directories, including users that belong to group homeusr

I also try to set group id of home directory to homeusr group, without any luck

any ideas?

thanks
