I've setup a samba-3.0.11 share with

[General]
   guest account = ftp
   security = domain

[pub]
   comment = pub
   path = /pub
   read only = yes
   browseable = no
   guest ok = yes

And attempts to access the share from WinXP(sp2) clients anonymously fail,

Appended is the (log level 2) samba.log entries (names changed to 
protect the innocent):
