By editing "log level" to "2", log.smbd nows says "Authentication for user

I read that Samba is able to share files with anonymous users, where all
users will be treated as "nobody": If this indeed possible, what do I need
to do?

Here's my smb.conf at this point:
=======================
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
encrypt passwords = yes
;wins support = yes
log level = 2
;max log size = 1000
;read only = no
guest account = nobody
security = user
map to guest = Bad User

;[homes]
;browsable = no
;map archive = yes

[test]
path = /tmp
browsable = yes
read only = yes
guest ok = yes

;Still get ERR 5
;public = yes

;Err 6118: List of servers for workgroup not currently available
force user = nobody
=======================

Thank you.

OK, so I set up a test VM and set up samba as above and tried to connect from a Linux Mint 15 machine running cinnamon and got the same result as the OP. On cinnamon the file browser has the ability to connect to a server via 'File' --> 'Connect to server', now if I use this and enter the samba 3 servers details etc it connects and I can read a test document I placed in the /tmp dir on the server. Initially it did not connect, but once I changed the 'Domain' setting that cinnamon had filled in automatically, from my domain name to 'workgroup' it did connect, could this be the OP's problem?
