Take a look at the "guest ok" option.

OK. I've looked at the "guest ok" option. I've added it to my [global] section. Even better, here's my config:

[global]
        server string = portablepoch shares
        security = SHARE
        log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
        max log size = 50
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
        dns proxy = No
        guest ok = Yes

[shared]
        path = /home/shared
        force user = thepoch
        force group = thepoch
        read only = No
        create mask = 0664
        directory mask = 0775
        guest only = Yes

Whenever anyone else tries to access my machine, it still prompts for a password. Is there anything wrong with my config? For that matter, has anyone actually successfully gotten Samba to work with "security=share"?

Does anybody know how to set up samba so when you access a share it will not prompt for a username and password?
