[Samba] winxp home login to samba shares

[Gary Dale]

Samba won't ask if your username and password on the server are the same 
as what you logged on with. I believe this is Windows XP trying your 
current credentials before it asks for new ones. You may have to ask on 
a Windows XP forum if there is a way of disabling this.
