[Samba] Cannot get user level access to shares

[isdtor]

 I'm setting up a new samba server under CentOS6.3, samba-3.5.10-125.el6.x86_64,
 and am running into a strange problem I am unable to solve. There's actually
 a bunch of problems, but I think they can be solved once this particular issue
 is fixed.

 Samba is set up as a PDC for WinXP clients. The old samba server bit the
 dust and I had many problems trying to migrate. So I started from scratch
 with a very basic configuration, straight from the RHEL6 documentation
 ("Primary Domain Controller (PDC) using tdbsam"), but even with this setup,
 I keep running into the same issue. The logs (log level 2) are littered with
 lines like these:

[2012/12/18 12:39:35.740861,  2]
smbd/service.c:587(create_connection_server_info)
  guest user (from session setup) not permitted to access this share (MYID)
[2012/12/18 12:39:35.740893,  1] smbd/service.c:678(make_connection_snum)
  create_connection_server_info failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

 So, despite success login as MYID, samba only grants guest-level access to
 this share. One consequence is that software like Office cannot save to
 the share because it's "in use by another user". I can fix this bit with
 various locking related options.

 In order to discount issues with other network services, I have created
 MYID and the corresponding home directory locally on the samba server.
Yet, the issue persists.
