Anonymous access for disk space

I'm running Samba 1.9.18p4 on an SGI Octane running IRIX 6.4.
People who have accounts on the machine can access their home
directories without problems, so it is configured and running OK.

We have a filesystem (/pc1) that is to be used by any of the PC
users.  I have not gotten it to allow people to access the disk
without requiring an account on the octane though.  I've RTFM, and
obviously am missing something.  What am I missing?

My smb.conf file is below.

Thanks for any assistance.
