Graeme, I believe that's all due to the current default settings for guest user handling in smb.conf. I don't like it all when you want to act the Samba box as a PDC, so I always change the following 2 parameters in smb.conf (in the template) to avoid all that: guest ok = no map to guest = never That's just my personal preference for that. Other opinions welcome.
