Samba user authentication

[David Bandel]

Folks,

<rant>
Why does everything dealing with M$ products have to be so
aggravatingly, horrorifically frustrating?  What takes 9 seconds to do
in UNIX takes NiNe HoUrS or more to do in Windoze (if it can be done
at all).
</rant>

I installed Samba on a server.  The client wants to mount the home
directories on each system to save files to the server (and thus be
backed up when the WinXP machines crash).  So I want each user to log
in and mount his home share to save files to.

I have samba set up with user security.  I have the pam samba file
created.  I have the home share created.  However, no one can log in
(encryption is turned on).

The server is visible.  And selecting it pulls up a login prompt
(good).  User is on system called SA.  he enters his username and
password, but gets the login prompt back only with his name filled in:
SA\eloo.

Any idea _how_ I get this to work?  Or does M$ have it deliberately
broken as usual?

TIA,

David A. Bandel
