Where is the group "david" defined? IMO, it is a bad idea to use the same
name for a share and for a group, as it's easy to get confused. If you want
only you to be allowed access (and you log into Windows as "david", and are
registered with Samba the same way), I recommend changing the indicated line
to
valid users = david
(you don't have as much control over Netbios names)
