Hi There,
I am having problems with guest access. Even though I have guest access set to "yes" in my
smb.conf file, the username password prompt comes up everytime i try to connect from my 95 box.
As soon as I enter my actual unix password, I gain access.
Does anyone have an idea as to why. I have set smb.cong to use "pcguest" and have added this
user to the /etc/passwd file?
Regards
Rich.
