Right now, you have no access to the domain accounts. And your domain
probably has guest access disabled, hence the lack of access when logged
into the domain.

I'd suggest using SWAT to set up your server as a member server in the
domain. Rather than making the accounts wide open, use the domain groups
to control access to the shares.

Your smb.conf looks rather sparse in the global area. You may want to
look into the docs for other entries you may need. Try SWAT's help files.

We are running Samba v1.2 with Unix  v3.2 kernal 5.0.6

I am a complete newbie at Unix/Samba.

Samba is not a domain controller

PC users (Windows XP Pro SP2) logged into the domain are getting prompted
for a guest password.  When the username prompt pops up, the username is
defaulted to guest and is grayed out.

If a person logs into the local machine on a pc instead of logging into the
domain they are able to access samba and browse the shares directly without
getting the login prompt.

I need domain users to be able to login without a password and without
getting password prompt.

My smb.conf:

; Sample Configuration file for smbd.

; 16/04/97 JSB v1.2

============================================================================

; For the format of this file and comprehensive descriptions of all the
