I would like to share folders without making an account for everyone who wants access to those shares. I am already restricting access to those shares based on IP address. I would like to also restrict access with password protection. Basically, I want to restrict access to a share based on IP address and a password, but without creating user accounts. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.

Bad answer Robert, Racer X, with security = share you can do something like that. you still need a user per share, but that will make things similar to what you need. see also the "username" parameter in smb.conf Simo.

Simo, If you still need a user per share, isn't that the same as having an account? I believe that RacerX was looking for a way to have anonymous (With no username) access with a password.
