You will probably always be asked for authentication. I take it we are
talking about the 'AXIARListen' share here, if so, then only the guest
user will be allowed access. To ensure that it is a guest user, Samba
has to check that the user is unknown, so it checks the connecting user
against its database and if unknown, the user is mapped to the guest
user, it will do this every time a user connect, because the unknown
user will not be stored in Samba's database.
