Anonymous File Sharing Server

[LuckyTaxi]

I've setup Samba on my bsd box but I'm having a tough time having to act as a file sharing server. Nothing special, I just want to be able to save files on it w/o having to input a password/username. I've gotten it to work with authentication, but thats not my concern since I would just be saving drivers and other stuff I need for work. Everytime I go try to access it via my Network neighborhood it tells me I need to input a username/password.

post the top part of your smb.conf
What kind of security do you have set?

 

[Haden]

Use security = share,
look http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/smb.conf.5.html for more information.

I answered my own question! It works.

Now I want to be able to authenticate against my domain.
do I use server or domain for the security level?
