Hello list, I am trying to make a very simple samba share with out any authentication which will work inside the lan only and accessible from winxp too. This is debian lenny box and samba is 2:3.2.5-4lenny7 To achieve this I have written smb.conf ( collected from testparm as ) ``````````````````````````````````` Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf Processing section "[shared]" Global parameter deadtime found in service section! Loaded services file OK. Server role: ROLE_STANDALONE Press enter to see a dump of your service definitions [global] workgroup = OFFICE_DEBIAN_SERVER server string = %h server interfaces = lo, eth0, eth1 bind interfaces only = Yes security = SHARE log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d [shared] comment = Public Shared Folder path = /home/shared force user = nouser force group = nobody read only = No force create mode = 0777 force directory mode = 0777 guest only = Yes guest ok = Yes `````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` After restarting the samba I tried to mount the shared from a win box and it still asking for authentication. then I tried from a linux box and get as below ``````````````````````````````` smbclient //192.168.1.1/shared web Domain=[OFFICE_DEBIAN_SERVER] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.2.5] Server not using user level security and no password supplied. Server requested LANMAN password (share-level security) but 'client lanman auth' is disabled tree connect failed: SUCCESS - 0 ````````````````````````````````````` could any one please tell me what prevents my samba to work properly ? Thanks
