strange problem with samba
windowsxp:192.168.0.11
fedora14:192.168.0.12, running smb server
I have disabled selinux.

user list of fedora14:
jone (wihch is created when install fedora14, with password 'jone')
jone2 (which is added by hand, with password 'jone2')

I added jone and jone2 as samba users using 'smbpasswd -a' command.

The problems are:
In winxp I can access the home dir of jone via \\192.168.0.12\jone
But I can't access the home dir of jone2 via \\192.168.0.12\jone2 (access denied)
And even the user 'nobody' can browse (read only) all the files in '/' except '/home/jone2'.

I want that 'jone2' can access his home dir while 'nobody' can't browse the file system.

Some infomations:
Code:
$ls -al /home
drwxr-xr-x.  5 root   root   4096 Dec  5 12:18 .
dr-xr-xr-x. 25 root   root   4096 Dec  5 12:54 ..
drwx------. 36 jone   jone   4096 Dec  5 14:01 jone
drwx------   4 jone2  jone2  4096 Dec  5 12:50 jone2
