OK, it works for myself:

rowland at devstation:~$ smbclient //raspberrypi/public -c 'get 
logon_linux.sh' -N -U\\rowland
getting file \logon_linux.sh of size 35 as logon_linux.sh (2.1 
KiloBytes/sec) (average 2.1 KiloBytes/sec)

pi at raspberrypi:~ $ cat /etc/samba/smb.conf
[global]
     ...........
     map to guest = bad user
     ...........

[public]
     path = /home/freeshare
     read only = no
     guest ok = yes

There is a big error with your share, you cannot use 'valid users' with 
'public = yes' (which is a synonym for 'guest ok'), Whatever user is 
attempting to access the share, the user is authenticated before it gets 
anywhere the share. This means that a guest user is mapped to 'nobody' 
and 'nobody' isn't a member of the 'Domain Users' group. Try removing 
the 'read list' & 'valid users' lines from your share.
