This reverts commit c58194e3d2.
As mentioned by Andrew, we shouldn't break environments where
"force user" has been configured to use substituted variables.

<para>This specifies a UNIX user name that will be
|
|
assigned as the default user for all users connecting to this service.
|
|
This is useful for sharing files. You should also use it carefully
|
|
as using it incorrectly can cause security problems.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This user name only gets used once a connection is established.
|
|
Thus clients still need to connect as a valid user and supply a
|
|
valid password. Once connected, all file operations will be performed
|
|
as the "forced user", no matter what username the client connected
|
|
as. This can be very useful.</para>
|

|
|
<para>In Samba 2.0.5 and above this parameter also causes the
|
|
primary group of the forced user to be used as the primary group
|
|
for all file activity. Prior to 2.0.5 the primary group was left
|
|
as the primary group of the connecting user (this was a bug).</para>
