I Tried XP restarts, and tried removing hosts allow/deny, and I still
have the same problem, enforced guest login.
I am starting to wonder if this might be somehow related to the fact
that I changed the XP's name, except that it shouldn't
be a problem as I see the new XP name and shares correctly from Linux.
I Will try to add a new user to XP and add that to samba, login with the
new user and see if it works then.

You should also try removing your global hosts allow and hosts deny
lines. If they aren't done properly, they can cause you to be unable
to connect.

Is your borzo password on Unix the same as your borzo password on
Windows? And have you tried rebooting your Windows box between

After a couple of minutes of inactivity I tried to access the samba
share again and I got the error message I wrote about previously:
* Error Message: /xxxxx/ is not accessible. You might not have
permission to use this network resource.
Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have
access permission * .
The share is accessible locally and so is the XP share from Linux.

You said, I believe, that you are running XP/Home. Are you logged
on as borzo (and not Borzo, BORZO or some other variant)?
Also, take it back to just including the path, restart samba, and
let us know the exact error message Windows gives you.

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.
