[Samba] Acess from windows to share get closed..

[kissg]

It's because PAM rejects user "nobody". Adding the following line to the
[global] section of /etc/samba/smb.conf should help:

obey pam restrictions = No

Try it, and see what happens. By the way, it's always a good idea to attach
your config files if you experience problems. It's much easier to help, if
we can see how your configuration looks like.
