Little update.
I just found that if I chose Map Network Drive on the vista machine it
will authenticate and connect the share as a network drive. Why does it

this with share level security. It's a shame, it would have been very
useful in a low security home environment.

I have a backup server with samba on it and am trying to set it up to
only allow write access when a user authenticates but to allow reading
from anyone (guest). At this time I have
That is the version of samba that I am running, but it does not work.
This is an Arch system and I doubt they would have changed it.
