Well, first of all, I didn't see any attached files. You might try sending
the attachments again (or maybe the list doesn't allow attachments?). Samba
stores passwords for users (if your security=user) in the smbpasswd file,
not in the passwd file. If you compile samba yourself with the default
prefixes, etc., I believe the smbpasswd file goes in
/usr/local/samba/private (I'm not exactly sure). You must set passwords
with the smbpasswd command (which will alter the smbpasswd file). There are
options in the smb.conf file to enable password syncronization between Unix
and Samba, although I am not sure exactly sure what those options are at
this time (try 'man smb.conf'). If you have security=share set, you set
the
passwords per share instead of per user.

You can't make a difference until you are willing to be different.
