[Samba] Cant connect to samba share from windows xp with another user

[Flávio Fonseca]

Hi,

  I getting this problem since I updated my samba server for the one with 
opensuse 11.1.
  When I try to get to a share in the samba server, say \\sambaserver\apps, 
and Im logged in the station with a user that has access to the share 
everything works fine.
  But when I log in with a user that does not have access to that share 
windows prompts me a user/password dialog box. I fill in a valid 
user/password samba does allow me to log in.

  Here is my smb.conf share part:

[aplicativos]
        path = /home/SemBackup/aplicativos
        valid users = ff 
        force group = users
        writeable = yes

  when I logged in a station with user ff I can access the share. But then I 
log in with user visitantes which does not have access permission. Windows 
prompts for user/password. I fill in user ff and my password and windows 
denies access. In the log it shows it trying to log in with user visitantes 
and not with user ff:

  user 'visitantes' (from session setup) not permitted to access this share 
(aplicativos)
[2009/10/29 20:53:11,  2] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(740)


  If it can help: smbd version 3.2.7-11.4.1-2210-SUSE-CODE11 started.

  Why samba, or windows, is not trying to log in with ff password?

  Thanks for your attention.
