As long as samba is running and the windows login name is the same as
the linux name - or you are using samba as the domain controller for
windows it should just work. That is, each windows user will only see
the corresponding home directory. If you also want access to linux
applications while running windows you can use the NX client with
freenx, cygwin X, or vnc.
