[Samba] SAGE Line 50

[Hamish]

Hello
I have used a very basic share, and it seems that users can still 
connect concurrently without locking problems:

[Accounts]
    path = /data1/fileroot/Accounts
    read only = No

SuSE9.0 with Samba 3.0.3pre2 from rpm, security DOMAIN, w3k active 
directory joined.

This is all in smb.conf - the directory has acls to keep out prying eyes.
I tried to use valid users=accounts with hide unreadable=yes in [global] 
but other users could still see the share, so I have done it this way 
(also it is easier to manage for other windows-loving admins)
Not sure if it is a security risk to use acls instead, but it works!
