samba - Jun 2000 - can we setup a proxy user in samba

Hi Samba,

I want use samba for file sharing between, Solaris 2.6 and NT domanins. The 
end user, NT application processes need to access the file system which on 
Solaris. So I dont want create/add every user who wants to access to 
filesystem by authenticating NT user name. I just want create a proxy user 
on samba, who ever connects, I mean irrespective of any NT login name, they 
should be able to login using this proxy user login of samba. That means, I 
don't want enter any NT user name, but by using proxy user, they should be 
able to access the file system.

See "guest ok" or "public" in the man page for smb.conf
