Hm, it seems to be working now...


I've added the following to smb.conf on the server:

"map untrusted to domain = yes"

restarted samba, tried - it wouldn't work. Removed that line, restarted 
again, tried again, now it works...

Also, domain should be noted in lowercase.

Don't know what fixed it ...


Also if you have hidden share (with $ at the end of the name), you 
shouldn't escape it in /etc/fstab or in automount maps.
