Perhaps the problem is that samba doesn't know about the ordinary
user accounts?
At the command line on the samba server, you may add an account to
samba with:
smbpasswd -a your_unix_account_name
You will be prompted for a password twice.
If that isn't the issue, then I would expect that problem is that
your ordinary user isn't a member of whatever group has permission to
access the share.

I just started learning to use Samba. I just have the default

access my
shares from another networked computer?
The other computer is running Windows XP and I setup shares on
there as well.
When I browse for host I can see it but it wont let me access any
or even see
a list of shares. I used the default settings for Windows shares
on Windows
XP. I realize this last part isn't related to Samba but I am
trying to
access those shares from a Samba client.
