Just confirming.
I had to do 'sudo smbpasswd jonathan' and then was able to connect from
my iMac.
It seems like it wouldn't quite fit to put the user smb passwd set
button in the shared folders box, but it *is* the best place from a
likely workflow point of view.
Maybe a [Users] button could be placed at the bottom right to allow
setting the smbpasswd for any particular user.
Is it actually possible for samba to pick up the same authentication
i.e. password for a user when it is activated? (on a standalone machine,
rather than a domain, in the most basic case) Or is it always going to
be necessary to run smbpasswd for each user to be permitted access to
share?

When setting up a simple file share you are unable to access the share from a
Windows machine, while the samba server has no password set.
