Hi,

I have a new Xubuntu installation, I have installed samba and all appeared to be fine.

I discovered however that although I can connect to the Samba share form my Windows 7 PC, my housemate cannot. His PC gives the error "The account is not authorized to connect form this station"

I can see nothing in the logs that would cause the problem.

The only thing I can think of is that my Windows PC has the same defaulty username as the Xubuntu box, while my housemates doesn't, but he doesn't even get prompted with a username/password login option.
