I would like to configure my samba server to share:

* printers to everybody (share security level)
* homes to unix users only (user security level)

What should I change in my configuration file?

With the following configuration users need password to access his home
directory but anyone also needs password to acces printers...

Thanks!


[global]
  log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
  dns proxy = no
  passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:
\\*%n\n*Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n
  server string = %h server (Samba %v)
  socket options = TCP_NODELAY
  invalid users = root
  obey pam restrictions = yes
  workgroup = t09
  encrypt passwords = true
  syslog = 0
  passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
  passdb backend = tdbsam guest
  panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
  max log size = 1000

  printcap name = cups  
  printing = cups   
  security = user

[printers]   
  browseable = yes   
  printable = yes   
  public = yes   
  create mode = 0700   
  guest only = yes   
  use client driver = yes
  guest account = smbprint   
  path = /var/spool/smbprint  

[print$]
   comment = Printer Drivers
   path = /var/lib/samba/printers
   browseable = yes
   read only = yes
   guest ok = no
