It works now since i removed the user sven, which was only for testing
purposes.
Another Question which i have in mind all the time while setting up the
Samba Server:
since i work with NT WS too i think it's more convenient to be asked for a
username AND Password combination everytime it try to mount a Samba Share -
is that possible for a Win 98 client? The only thing i saw sometimes when
connecting to a smb Share was a question for a password.
