[Twang]

Yes, I am trying to allow guest access to the new share, just like what I 
had setup with the /tmp share.

workgroup = Radio

server string =

hosts allow = 192.168.0. 192.168.10.

printcap name = /etc/printcap

cups options = raw

guest account = pcguest

log file = /var/log/samba/log.smbd

max log size = 1000

security = user

socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192

domain master = no

dns proxy = no

winbind uid = 16777216-33554431

winbind gid = 16777216-33554431

restrict anonymous = no

preferred master = no

netbios name = Rivendell

max protocol = NT

map to guest = Bad User

guest ok = yes

case sensitive = no

msdfs proxy = no

create mask = 0777

directory mask = 0777

use sendfile = yes



[homes]

comment = Home Directories

browseable = no

read only = no

[printers]

comment = All Printers

path = /var/spool/samba

browseable = no

guest ok = yes

printable = yes

[snd]

path = /var/snd
