User 2 will not see those shares (unless they are listed in User 2's directory

In Mac OS X (10.3.4, 10.3.5, and 10.3.6) as well as in various Linux
distributions like Mandrake 10 and 10.1 and the latest Debian, if I log in as User 1,
I cannot see the shares that correspond to User 1. The only shares I can see
through the Mac Finder or through the Mac "Connect to Server" or through the
Linux Smb4k or LinNeighborhood are those defined in the general
"/etc/samba/smb.conf" file.

I don't know how Windows does this, but I know initially MacOS X does not transmit a username. When using the "Connect to Server", have you tried clicking on Authenticate? Only then does it tell the server who you are and for me the available shares get updated. However, I only have the standard [Homes] section plus shares that are available to everybody. So before Authenticate I see only the common shares. After Authenticate I get my own home directory added to the list. In linux have you tried the smbclient, supplying a username and password, to see if you see everything you are supposed to?
