Samba - add network users?

I had never created the file smbusers with the network user. The fact is
: you need to create a samba user, and this samba user needs to be a
normal unix user too.

Adding a user in ubuntu : sudo adduser {user}

Adding a user in samba : sudo smbpasswd -a {user}

Then you can make a share on you linux box and access it from windows.



In the other way, accessing to a windows share... there is nothing
special to do.



But can you tell us more precisely what you want to do?
