Our Debian 3.01 file server, running Samba 3.0.0 is setup for guest

configured smb.conf, see below.
[Payroll] path = /home/pam comment = Private valid users = pam writeable = yes username level = 3
Do I need to do anything to the smbusers file?
When I try to access that share, I'm not able to enter a username.
It's defaulting to guest, and prompting for a password. Actually, it's
doing this for all shares. When I first set this up a few weeks back, I
was being prompted for a password, but I could never connect
successfully, so I left it alone. (Currently searching the archived
logs for an answer.)
i'll bet you have 'security = share'. User mode security is much more intuitive.
