ubuntu 10.04 samba one share two users


hi
i have a computer that i have install quite a bit on:
ubuntu 10.04 desktop (computer name t5026)
set ip to static
samba
wakeonlaN
openssh-server
ethtool
x11vnc

mounted a second hard drive fstab:
/dev/sdb1 /media/st1 ext4 rw,suid,dev,exec,auto,user,async 0 0

klein@t5026:/media$ ls -l
drwx------ 6 klein klein 4096 2012-11-17 12:33 st1

klein@t5026:/media/st1$ ls -l
drwxr-xr-x 4 klein klein 12288 2012-11-18 21:47 old computer


in ubuntu there are two users created klein,beth
i have done as i always do:

sudo smbpasswd -a klein

i'm on a local network at home and i use the same passwd for samba as
well as my ubuntu login

everything works as expected the problem comes when i try to add beth to samba first i did:
sudo smbpasswd -a beth
my passwd
her passwd
her passwd

sudo smbpasswd -e beth
my passwd
beth added

then i added her to the valid user:
valid users = beth, klein

after rebooting from another ubuntu 10.04 computer i can browse to places > network > t5026 > old computer find and open it but if i try to login and browse using beth it says failed to mount window share

from t5026 i did testparm and the only problem it had was:

rlimit_max: rlimit_max (1024) below minimum Windows limit (16384)
