In the windows machines usually are used two protocols:
IPX/SPX and NetBEUI for connecting the MS network, while for samba is
request the stacks TCP/IP.
In the Linux box must be installed the TCP/IP (naturally), but when you
login in a box with the name 'paul' and try
/home/paul/$ smbclient -L my_host
samba identify 'paul' and the 'homes' share is the home of
paul (/home/paul)
therefore if you use a login_name in a windows pc as 'paul'
you can be access to the listing of shares resources, otherwise
no.
whith security=share instead the community can view (only VIEW)
the resources.
If you want limitate the access from other networks can use
allow hosts = 193.xxx. 141.xxx.

I non use the username.map, but I believe is a file that contain the name
conversions between PC and U*ix
