hello,
thanx to your reply.
i am sending you attached the /usr/local/etc/smb.conf from
my samba box.
as i don't have big knowledge of samba you may find yourself
smiling at the configs :))

what i can tell you now is that i can access the samba box
from other desktops but i dont yet understand how to
implement an authentication policy.
i want that users/password be created locally and every
login attempt triggers a user/password prompt.

do you see what i mean ?

thank you for your help
