Set 'security=share' on the server, and create an account in smbpasswd for a new user 'share_user' (or whatever you like to call it). Then put 'user = share_user' and 'valid users = share_user' in the declaration for that share. This gets you pretty close to the 'share level' password on Win9X. Not quite (because we map to unix users) but pretty close. Note that setting 'security=share' will affect other shares on the server, so you might want to look into a %L include to host this on a separate virtual hostname.
