I am using samba 2.07-36 on a RedHat 7.1 linux system. I want to share a directory on my Linux system to various Windows operating systems (Windows 95, 98, 2000 etc).
In the shares definition section I have: [MyShareDir] comment=My Shared Directoy on my Linux system path= /home/john public = yes writable = yes printable = no create mode = 0664 directory mask = 0775 browseable = yes guest ok = yes guest account = ftp guest only = yes
At a DOS prompt on a Windows 2000 machine, I type: net use v: \\10.2.2.2\MyShareDir
I get a message: "The password or username is invalid for 10.2.2.2" then it prompts me for a username.
From reading about samba, I thought the guest account would login in userftp and not prompt for a password since I have guest ok set to "yes". Am I wrong in that idea or is something just wrong with my setup?
Thanks
