For public shares including the IPC$ share for browsing, a guest account was
sufficient for access when user had no account on Unix box. With 2.06
however on my Solaris 2.7 box I can not seem to make the box browsable or
public shares work for non account visitors. I have tried the guest = *
entry in the map file, but than account that were already mapped get
remapped to guest and local account holder are treated as guests! I have
also tried the: map to guest = Bad user to no avail. I have tried several
combinations including changing my guest account. None allowed real account
holder in as themselves while all unknown users showed up as guests able to
browse server and map public services like printers and public shares.
This all seems to have worked fine in 2.05 so what do I do differently in
2.06 to make it all work again.
For reference below is sanitized smb.conf
; Configuration file for smbd.
