This share-level option tells Samba to force users to authenticate with passwords each time they connect to a different share on a machine, no matter what level of security is in place on the Samba server. The default value is
no
, which allows users to be trusted once they successfully authenticate themselves. You can override it as:
revalidate = yes
You can use this option to increase security on your system. However, you should weigh it against the inconvenience of having users revalidate themselves to every share.
