On a server "linuxbox" using ADS security in a Windows

       valid users = ADS-Name+Administrator,ADS-Name+dave
       path = /var/spool/samba/sambashares/srvbackup

[homes]
       browseable = no
       writeable = yes

from an XP professional client, srvbackup is usable but i
cannot access  my home.
error dialog shows "\\linuxbox\dave is not accessible"




On my system "FileTest" joined to a Win2K domain connections to home work with following setup:

1 - check path for home in getent:
FileTest:~ # getent passwd | grep testuser
testuser:x:11053:10513:testuser:/home/TEST_WIN_DOMAIN/testuser:/bin/false

2 - note valid user parameter:
[homes]
       comment = Home Directories
       valid users = TEST_WIN_DOMAIN/%S
       browseable = No
       read only = No

3 - note location of home directory:
/home/TEST_WIN_DOMAIN/testuser

Hope this helps.

getent passwd | grep 'dave' shows
ADS-Name+dave:*:16777216:16777217:David Rigler:/home/dave:/bin/false
ADS_Name+davez$:*:16777217:16777219:DAVEZ:/home/davez_:/bin/false

that second line, davez is the name of the XP box

i tried adding "valid user" to the [homes] section but nothing worked

valid users = %S - same as original error
valid users = ADS-Name+%S or valid users = ADS-Name/%S , brings up a login box, 
nothing i enter will pass
