samba - Feb 2004 - Anonymous access to Windows XP [pro] shares using "smbmount"

Hi, 

I am having trouble accessing Windows XP share using smbmount [anonymous]. The
"smbmount" command, would say "Anonymous login successful",
but when we try to access the folders /list the contents, "Permission
denied" is the error that props up.

smbmount //MY-XP/XP-SHARE test/ -o "username=anonymous,guest"
Anonymous login successful
#ls test
ls: test: Permission denied

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Mahesh

See Local Policy Settings in Control Panel if XP-SHARE test is named in 
the list of shares with guest access allowed. I don't have english Windows 
XP Pro here to see exact english name of that setting. Enabling guest user 
account is not enough.
