I believe your permissions are not correct. If I understand correctly you want to run a wide open share that allows everyone full control. If this is correct then first:
chmod -R 777 /your/share Change your create masks to: create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 Sent on the Sprint® Now Network from my BlackBerry® -----Original Message----- From: "J. L.

I want to access a Linux share resource in /var/share without password from WXP desktop FROM ANY USER. This is my scenario: - I don't create any Linux local user because I want total access from any user - I use security = share - My smbusers file is: root = administrator admin nobody = guest pcguest smbguest - The Windows XP guest account is "guest" but I don't know if it has any password setup. - This is my smb.conf: [global] workgroup = G-COMPANY.NET server string = Samba Server Version %v security = SHARE passdb backend = tdbsam [share] comment = Archivos Compartidos path = /var/share read only = No create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 guest only = Yes guest ok = Yes Form Windows XP I execute: \\samba_server\share but I get the error "DENIED ACCESS". What can I do to access this resource ???
