Which Samba security model do you use: share or user?

I posted the recommendation about using a credentials instruction today
in a different Samba thread.

"Instead of using password data inside the worldreadable /etc/fstab file
I would recommend using "credentials=/home/$user/.samba" syntax in the
4th column to pass the authentification data. The credentials file in
the user home then contains the username and password data."
