well
i have done valid users = mar fred

but problem is that the system is configured to authenticate through Windows 
Active Directory Server
and when i try to access the share i just created with valid users = may 
fred
it doesnt authenticates me

seems there is a problem in authentication that Samba is confused about that 
from where it should authenticate the given credentials
