<samba:parameter xmlns:samba="http://samba.org/common">
		<term><anchor id="ONLYUSER"/>only user (S)</term>
		<listitem><para>This is a boolean option that controls whether 
		connections with usernames not in the <parameter moreinfo="none">user</parameter> 
		list will be allowed. By default this option is disabled so that a 
		client can supply a username to be used by the server.  Enabling
		this parameter will force the server to only use the login 
		names from the <parameter moreinfo="none">user</parameter> list and is only really
		useful in <link linkend="SECURITYEQUALSSHARE">share level</link>
		security.</para>

		<para>Note that this also means Samba won't try to deduce 
		usernames from the service name. This can be annoying for 
		the [homes] section. To get around this you could use <command moreinfo="none">user =
		%S</command> which means your <parameter moreinfo="none">user</parameter> list
		will be just the service name, which for home directories is the 
		name of the user.</para>

		<para>See also the <link linkend="USER"><parameter moreinfo="none">user</parameter>
		</link> parameter.</para>

		<para>Default: <command moreinfo="none">only user = no</command></para>
