Correct. I just wanted to point out that it was not a one size fits all
solution. (Well, it is, but it's intrusive and overkill for fine grained
issues - smbd reads the smb.conf when a PC connects, so you only need a
full restart when you want all PCs to get new smb.conf settings).

A few more questions if you don't mind. When you do a restart, it does
not disconnect a user does it? And what if they auto-mount the smb
directories when they log in (like on a Windows box). They would not ever
need to reconnect until they log off right? Or does each attempt to
read/write a file force a reconnect?

It does disconnect all the users, but Windows silent reconnects next
time the user makes use of that mapped drive.
