<title>I have set 'force user' and samba still makes 'root' the owner of all the files I touch!</title>
<para>
When you have a user in 'admin users', samba will always do file operations for
this user as 'root', even if 'force user' has been set.

<title>I have just installed samba and I'm trying to log in from Windows, but samba refuses all logins!</title>
<para>
Newer windows clients(NT4, 2000, XP) send encrypted passwords. Samba can't compare these
passwords to the unix password database, so it needs it's own user database. You can
add users to this database using "smbpasswd -a user-name".
</para>
<para>
See also the "User database" chapter of the samba HOWTO Collection.

<title>How can I make samba use netbios scope ID's</title>
<para>By default Samba uses a blank scope ID. This means
all your windows boxes must also have a blank scope ID.
If you really want to use a non-blank scope ID then you will
need to use the 'netbios scope' smb.conf option.
All your PCs will need to have the same setting for
this to work. Scope ID's are not recommended.</para>
