can anyone helpppppp?? plz

Why? :P :

Ok let me see, you need to create a share for each user, accessible only by the user? Correct? Do you have Samba security set to "user"?

You could do something like this for each user:

[username]
comment = My Share
path = /usr/somewhere/
valid users = username
public = no
writable = yes

There are bunches of other options you can include. The above is REALLY basic.

You also need to add each user and their password.

smbpasswd -a username password

man smbpasswd for more information.
Might also take a look at: man smb.conf

You can browse Samba shares in Nautilus or konqueror. There are some stand alone browsers for Samba shares available. Just search on Samba on http://freshmeat.net

Never heard of that one. Doesn't seem to be actively maintained any longer. The last version was released almost a year ago. :'(
