I'm having some problems in getting annonymous access onto
my Samba server. It's setup and working with people that
connect that already have accounts on the linux box. It's
also setup and running with MS encrypted passwords.

Nothing has been modified in the passwd/shadow password
files. Within in the smb.conf file, I uncommented on of
the examples of allowing anonymous or guest access onto
a local directory. Whenever I attempt to connect to the
server, it asks for an account code. Then it comes back
with something like "dual password" error of some types
and access is denied.

Here is the part in the smb.conf;

# A publicly accessible directory, but read only, except for people in
# the "staff" group
[public]
  comment = Public Stuff
   path = /home/samba
   guest account = nobody
   guest ok = yes
   public = yes
   writable = no
   printable = no
   write list = @staff


So am I missing something? I tried activating the guest account earlier
in the config file, but it still didn't work. Do I have to set soemthing
up in the passwd/shadow file? What am I doing wrong?
