From [global] I have removed valid users
At first in [MyFiles] I left only the path, which didn't work at all ( I was presented with an error on XP ), here's what I'm left with:

[MyFiles]
      path = /home/samba/
      force user = borzo
      force group = borzo
      create mask = 0644
      directory mask = 755

but this didn't change the situation, I am still presented by the grayedout login prompt, and by the way the share is accessible through samba locally, aswell as the XP shares. The share's permissions are set to 0777, user and group are set to borzo and borzo is added and enabled with smbpasswd.

thanks so far,
SG

----------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

you really _don't_ want to put this in the global section, or the only
user allowed is borzo everywhere, and guest connections will always be
denied.

Simo.
Yes, but that probably isn't his problem as he also has borzo as the only valid user for his MyFiles share.

My concern is that he has so much other unnecessary entries in his share definition. My advice to him would be to clear out all the unnecessary stuff until he can get a working share. Start with just the path and see if that works. If it doesn't then your problem lies elsewhere.

What are the Unix directory permissions for the share? Try setting them to allow everyone read-write-execute access.
