[Samba] Adding Users to Samba Kill Access

At a rough guess I suspect that when the user exists, the XP box
connects as that user and then discovers that it has no access to the
underlying filesystem.

Once the users are deleted, Samba treats the user as "nobody" which
does have access to the underlying files.
