[Samba] Basic question for user/pass authentication

I have found that it is just easier to use the same credentials for each
user on all machines in a workgroup.  Windows is pretty quirky about
when it will allow you to use alternate credentials, in my experience,
and Windows always prefers to use the credentials of the user who is
logged in.
Also, check your smb.conf, there are directives that can lock you out
regardless of correct user credentials or file permissions, (valid users
might be there without your user listed, for example).
