Kai, Perhaps I missed this in the threads, but are you sure you have the proper permissions set on the directory/files you are having Samba access? Samba can access what you point it to, but the basic permissions in your linux file system also need to be set to allow that user as well. You have to set both. I've never used this for a specific user, but have a share set up with file access to allow guests and all users can read/write. This suits my particular purpose for home network sharing. Fine tuning that should work. In older versions of Suse, Swat worked very well, and still probably does, but I find the Yast Samba tools to be very good now.
