If you have a client that:
- can access the share if it uses the right user/pass,
- and cannot acces the public share if it uses the wrong user/pass, 
(that is you don't have password-encryption related problems)
the try using

map to guest = bad user

this will map non-existent userid's to the guest user.

Note that on some systems "nobody" is not a valid guest account, try
"ftp".
