What is "Force User" in SAMBA ?

[uniqname]
comment = Unique comment
path = /path/to/the/stuff
public = no
writable = yes
printable = no
valid users = user1,user2,user3
force user = sushanth

The 'force user' directive means that at the point of connection the real
users identity is lost and the user now is 'sushanth'.
