When trying to attach them mapping to the users home directory a message box comes up prompting for username and password. The username is grayed out showing only guest. The other shares come through just fine as to be expected. The server is running AIX 5.3 using Samba 2.2.7. Below is the smb.conf file. # Global parameters [global] workgroup = COMP.CH netbios name = USOTR1 server string = usotr1 security = SHARE encrypt passwords = Yes update encrypted = Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*UNIX*passwd* %n\n*ReType*new*UNIX*passwd* %n\n *passw username map = /var/samba/users.map unix password sync = Yes log file = /var/samba/log/log.%m max log size = 50 local master = No dns proxy = No [homes] comment = Home Directories path = /home/%u read only = No [share] comment = User Area path = /tmp/share read only = No create mask = 0777 force security mode = 0777 directory mask = 0777 force directory security mode = 0777 guest ok = Yes

The unix permissions are set on the /home drive. When mapping from My Computer....
