Rowland, clearly i know that. But you sayed:

and i'm simply saying that this (seems) not completely true, because
windows 'Guest' user are mapped 'by default' to UNIX 'nobody' user.

If i create the user 'idontexistonthedomain' on a local workstation and
i try to access to a share (and supposing DOMINIQUE is the
workstation...) DOMINIQUE\idontexistonthedomain get mapped to guest and
i can access to the share. So guest access works.

Perfectly clear. But still seems me a bit strange that samba strip the
domain also from users like DOMINIQUE\Administrator, where DOMINIQUE is
a workstation.
