Hello all,
I havent got any replies on this matter but, since this can interest
any future
users, i leave the solution for the problem i reported!
After a *lot* of tests [which involved installing a winXP and win2k+3 without
any patches], i came to find that the problem was related to Windows and *not*
samba related!
Allthough the users arent listed on windows [via the typical gui], i
could list
them all via the "net user /domain" command!
I was also able to add a share to a specific user using rmtshare (from the NT
resource kit) and cacls (for managing Access Lists).
Hope this helps anybody! ;o)
Best,
Luís Silva
