the users "homes" share was also shared separately to automatically map the drive 
via "logon drive = h:"
samba was applying standard linux perms to files in homes.
my solution: change home directory in /etc/passwd to something else, and
use a logon.bat to map the drives we need.
simple really, too many late nights I suppose!
