This is how you'll setup the share: [share] comment = Patrick's File Share path = /some-path guest only = Yes guest ok = Yes If you want someone to be able to write to the share, set the parameter 'writeable' to yes. No passwords needed. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Phil Brutsche [EMAIL PROTECTED] "There are two things that are infinite; Human stupidity and the universe.
