Hi,
please also try with a user with uid => 1000 ( or greater )
change : valid users = paul
to
valid users = %U
and why dont u use the default for the users like this:
[homes]
comment = Private docs of user - %U
read only = No
create mask = 0644
directory mask = 0775
browseable = Yes
this is also useable for xp, when you enter \\servername\paul
is your /home a nfs mount of other external source.
the also use this in the [homes]:
wide links = yes
follow symlinks = yes
and add this in global config:
host msdfs = No
unix extensions = no
good luck.
Louis
