typically
a
Windows
"service"
typically
does
not
run>under
the
user
account
logged
into
the
local
machine.
More
commonly,
a>service
is
run
with
either
an
account
created
for
the
service,
the>"system"
account
or
the
local
administrator
account.
In
that
case,
the>samba
server
(or
a
Windows
server
for
that
matter)
would
deny
access.
Just to add - in the "Properties" window of the service, on the
"Log On" tab you can
set the real username and password for this service to run. In your case you
need
an user with premissions to access that Samba share.
(if you click the questionmark and get the help for "This account"
option, it actually
says this: "Assigns a logon account to a service. Although most services
log
on to the system account, some services can be configured to log on to special
user
accounts, so that the user can have access to resources such as files and
folders
that are protected.")
