Ok, so here is how it is. I finally got my file server setup with Gentoo, and it all works nice. The only thing is, whenever a user logs into one share via windows, whenever they go back to the share, it always logs into the same account. I need to make it to where whenever they go to access the share, it asks for their username and password. Any suggestions?

*bump* To clarify, after talking with my CIS instructor, I am looking for some sort of a samba based session timeout.

I doubt that. TO test it, connect, then stop samba and restart it. THen try again. Afaik, WIndows remember user/password combinations

http://www.google.de/search?hl=en&c...la:en-US:official&q=smb.conf+deadtime&spell=1 is the only thing I could find, not totally sure it''s what you want, but better than status quo I think
