Hi all,
I'm sure this has been discussed here before but at the time, it didn't
apply to me ... until now.
I'm trying to configure a public print share on a VAX/VMS system that
doesn't require any password to connect to. Anything I've tried always
asks the users for a password to make the connection. I don't much care
about who connects to this system and its shares as all it really does is
serve up printers and plotters to our Win95 PCs.
Here's my config for this share:
[datdj01]
comment = LIMS HP 1600 CM Deskjet Printer
path = /samba_root/var/spool
browseable = no
available = yes
guest account = samba_user
guest only = yes
public = yes
printer name = datdj01$print
printable = yes
writable = no
create mode = 0700
Thanks for any suggestions/solutions.
Dave
