You need to add some root users in your smb.conf like
[global]
admin users = user1,user2,user3
If you use SERVER passwords, the users must be well known on the server
and operate on samba as root. If the exists locally on the machine, they
will operate in samba as root.
Login is like every time: user=user, password=password
