Try man smb.conf

It explains how to set up the samba server to assign a user name to a logon with
no password.
eg.

[global]
	guest account = ftp

[cdrom1]
	comment = CDROM1
	path = /mnt/cdrom1
	guest ok = yes

guest account can be any valid user, like root. This gets rid of all those
pesky permissions problems.
