`mkpasswd` and `mkpasswd -l -U0-20000' produce the same output
(neither
includes the SMB user); the drive is mapped in Windows as z: and I can
also access it directly from the cygwin prompt.
What is the output is you run:

mkpasswd -l<samba-server-hostname>  -U 0-20000

It's rather prodigious (and slow, as warned by the man page). If I limit it to my own uid on that server, I get:
ryanjohn:unused:12680:99999:,S-1-22-1-2680::
mkpasswd (370): [31] A device attached to the system is not functioning.

Thanks for explaining that. I've never used the command before and the man pages weren't closing the gap.

Not sure how that will help my local user have write permissions to ryanjohn's files, tho...

Regards,
Ryan
