The 'public', 'guest ok' and 'browseable' settings are supposed to be
share level, not global.

If you are using Win98 or later clients, then you will need to setup
encrypted passwords if you implement any security.

You don't need a netlogon share unless you are doing domain logons.

This share is setup correctly, assuming you want anyone to be able to
read/write in the share.

I hope you are either disconnected or have a very good firewall. This type
of share is like putting your files on an anonymous FTP server. Worse,
your files can be overwritten and deleted.

Try this:

  nmblookup -A 127.0.0.1
