simple & stupid quesion

[Nothinman]

if the user's don't have accounts on the box you could use "map to guest",
if you need if you need the person to be on the box as themself I think
you'd need to give them an account.

Hi all,

I have an NT server that connects to a Samba box.  For what we are doing, I
don't want the Samba shares to ask for a password, but no matter what I do,
I cannot get Samba to do this.  I've set up guest ok and the guest account
to nobody.  Normally I'd have the Samba box go back to the PDC to ask for
authentication but the PDC & BDC are behind a firewall that cannot be
accessed by the Samba box.  So, I need to turn passwords off.

Please help!
