[Samba] Access to a share resource without password

[J. L. Cabral]

I have /var/share with rwx-rwx-rwx, and I put create and directory
masks with 777 values.

But I still get ACCESS DENIED error.

Do I have to create a local Linux user account ??? Or waht ??? Because
I need to give full access to every user from my LAN.

Thanks in advance.
