[Samba] Password protect shares with

[Robert Adkins]

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.

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.
