new samba user seeks alternative to NT

[Robert Fowler]

Hi all ,
im an new samba user with a few preface questions 
ive got samba up and working as my master browser but
when i try to go into the shared directory or main folder 
it comes up with a password screen ..  \\alpha\ipc$
but my question is , is there a default password for guest 
or nobody ?  it just keeps rejecting my password .. 
               Thank  Rob
