smbclient -L servername -U sharename
smbclient //servername/shared -U username

Who has access to /mnt ? To have access to a directory in Linux you also
need at least the execute (x) bit set on all the direct
I've always had to create a seperate set of accts and passwords using:
smbadduser unix-id:samba-id
usually sborg:sborg
I think is then prompts you for a password.
You can later set the password using smbpasswd.

Just check that they are connecting as themselves and not GUEST(nobody)...
`smbstatus` will show who's on etc...
run `mksmbpasswd.sh < /etc/passwd >> /etc/smbpasswd` to import the user list

set each one..
