I just switched to share security because I can not get any authentication 
with user anymore. It asks for my ID and password but will not authenticate. 
I have rerun smbpasswd -a mike 
then the password, but it will not authenticate.
If I rebuild 3.0.22-r2 it will work sometimes. I would prefer user level 
security but can't get it to work.
