The reason I want to have multiple connections at the same time using different users is: in one program I want to map a network drive for users to share documents; in another program I want to map a different share/drive with different name/id to run financial program. Is this the problem of samba or MS OS? Is there any way to get/fix problem?
Thanks.

The error is quite clear...you're trying to map two resources to the same place. You can't do that under ANY OS.
Map one folder (say, /users/shared-documents) for the document share folder, and another to /users/finance for the application. Both can use a different Windows ID/password, but go to different places. You won't be able to map both to the same place.
