Dear, I have a Linux Samba server and a Windows XP SP2 client joined to the "g-company.net" domain. I want to access a Linux share resource in /var/share without password from WXP desktop FROM ANY USER. This is my scenario: - I don't create any Linux local user because I want total access from any user - I use security = share - My smbusers file is: root = administrator admin nobody = guest pcguest smbguest - The Windows XP guest account is "guest" but I don't know if it has any password setup. - This is my smb.conf: [global] workgroup = G-COMPANY.NET server string = Samba Server Version %v security = SHARE passdb backend = tdbsam [share] comment = Archivos Compartidos path = /var/share read only = No create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 guest only = Yes guest ok = Yes Form Windows XP I execute: \\samba_server\share but I get the error "DENIED ACCESS". What can I do to access this resource ??? Thanks a lot, JeLo

[Samba] Access to a share resource without password
I believe your permissions are not correct. If I understand correctly you want to run a wide open share that allows everyone full control. If this is correct then first: chmod -R 777 /your/share Change your create masks to: create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 Sent on the Sprint?

OK, with Wolfgang advice I do:
[global]
workgroup = G-BAPRO.NET
server string = Samba Server Version %v
netbiosname = bangkok
security = user
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
guest account = guest
[share]
guest ok = yes
path = /var/share
writeable = yes
and execute from Windows desktop:
net use Z: \\bangkok\share
after that I put user=guest and password=1234
but I CAN'T ACCESS
"guest" is the name of a local Linux account and it's a samba user
(smbpasswd -a guest with pass "1234").
What can I do ???

You can just stick with security = user and then do something like this: [freeaccess] ? ?comment = free access folder ? ?browseable = yes ? ?path = /home/freeaccess ? ?public = yes ? ?writeable = yes ? ?create mode = 0644 ? ?force user = adhocuser ? ?force group = adhocuser just create such adhocuser into the server disabling it shell access and then do a: chown adhocuser /home/freeaccess PS: bounce to the list this message to discover if I've said something real wrong... -- Marco Ciampa +--------------------+ | Linux User ?#78271 | | FSFE fellow ? #364 | +--------------------+

Hi Chris, thanks and just three short questions: 1) The Linux local user "guest" must be added to samba with "smbpasswd -a guest" ??? 2) The Windows XP desktops must have a guest account enable named "guest", or it can be named "Invited" or "Invitado" (Spanish Windows version) ??? 3) What owner and group must have the share /var/share ???

I forced /var/share to be owned by group "publicshare", and in smb.conf I have force group = publicshare. The permission bits are 775. HTH -- Marcello Romani
