RE: SSH SAMBA


 

Yes you are again right. We tried that option, created 2 different users onto WinXP and made them login and map their individual home directories in their respective logins. But then the problem is , when that user connects to Win XP via SSH , he is not able to see his mapped drive , ( df doesn't show the mapped drive).  Like said before , SSH is configured using Administrator account. If the users map their home directories in the administrators login then only they are able to see their home directories after connecting via SSH. 
Just saw Corinna reply, and I think Corinna understood the situation very correctly. The last option , I would surely give it a try. Give me few mins to respond.

I never tried such a setup however I would bet that the permissions 
valid for the cygwin drive mounts are those of the user or users who 
were used to connect the network drives. If you want to have SAMBA drive 
a and drive b with separate access logics, you need to connect these 
drives using two separate users on the windows box AND set the 
permissions on the samba end (FS and samba) repsectively.
