Samba HEAD starts to add some of this, but the manpage is compleatly
inaccurate...

Set 'restrict anonymous = 1' should get you the start.

I'm looking into how to best implement 'restrict anonymous = 2'.

In the meantime, if you set 'auth methods = sam' (for standalone
servers) then it will skip the 'guest' module, and deny all anonymous
connections.  However, this will break browsing and other services.
