[Samba] Can't get 'root preexec' to run

[Ole Traupe]

Rowland, thanks for your effort, I highly appreciate it!

 From what I had read before...

[home] would be an arbitrarily named share and its preexec command would 
execute whenever a domain user connects to it
[homes] is a special purpose section in the smb.conf that comes into 
play whenever a domain user connects to his or her home dir defined on 
the DC

What MJ is telling seems to confirm this distinction.

(continued in my response to him)
