Package: samba-common
Version: 2:3.2.5-4lenny2
Severity: normal
File: smb.conf.5
Hello
There is a section on user validation in the smb.conf(5) man page. This
ends with point 6: if the user supplies the guest user name the user is
validated regardless of password.
However, for setting up guest shares that are reasonably usable it is
required that user names are mapped to the guest account.
Specifically, the security should be set to share or guest map to
Invalid User.
