	The write list will do what you want, but the user
	must be logged in first, as themselves or as guest.

	You can make a share readable to guest by playing with
	"guest ok", but that will mess up write list!  Better
	is tio use "map to guest" for peopel who don't have unix
	accounts...

	ps: this should have been directed to samba at samba.org,
	as samba-technical is the developers' internals 
	discussion.
