But that would change the entire directory, not just a subdirectory.

What I was hoping to be able to do was create a new subdirectory but
ask the users for a password for that subdiretory only, not the entire
branch.

Does anyone know if this is possible in Samba ?

Even if I could just create a new password protected share without 
changing or effecting existing ones... can you do anything like this?

[Private]
comment = Private
path = /Private
public = no
writable = yes
only guest = no
password = 9letmein9

Thanks for your replies.
