Don't have you original message and don't know your platform/version.
This is probably due to samba having mis-detected your system method to
switch uid/gid.
After you ./configure samba look into config.h and manually adjust the
definitions to match what your system needs; on my linux systems it says
/* #undef USE_SETEUID */
#define USE_SETRESUID 1
/* #undef USE_SETREUID */
/* #undef USE_SETUIDX */
.
Samba 2.0.7 should be more capable of getting this setting right.
Also check that the guest account has an uid > 0.
