David: in your testing, do you log in on your Linux system after the
"restart", or do you directly test under Windows XP for share access ?
If not, this probably fails because the user's password isn't migrated
to smbpass yet.
Here is how it should work : installing share support also installs
libpam-smbpass. This PAM library ensures that user passwords are synced
to the samba password tdb when the user logs in (or changes passwords).
Until the user password is migrated the share will fail to authenticate
you. When you "restart" the session, two things (should) happen: the
user gets the rights to setup a share (gets the usershare group rights)
and when the user logs in his password gets migrated. So you should
actually restart *and* log in again for the share to work.
