[Samba] read-only share still requires domain user authentication?

Hi,
I have an issue with how I have setup one of my shares. I have a file
system on one of my boxes that sync's to a cygwin repository on the
net. I eventually will have my internal windows workstations do a weekly
(or some frequency) sync to my internal cygwin repository. When at a
workstation I often do this cygwin sync by hand to make sure the user
has the latest cygwin files. When I run cygwin's setup pointed at my
local cygwin repository share, I must authenticate as a domain user.
I want this share to be readable by anyone.
Here's what I have for this share:
[cygwin]
comment = cygwin package repository
path = /opt/cygwin
public = yes
writable = no
read only = yes
printable = no
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
Anyone see something I need to change? I don't understand why I must
authenticate to the share.
