I'm not 100% sure (I've only ever used security = user), but I believe you can still have map to guest = bad user, they may still be prompted for a username and password but they could put in almost anything (except a valid username) and they would be granted access.

The man page only says that you map to guest isn't valid with security = share, which suggests that it should work when you are authing against another server.

Well while the global option security is still set as server, it will prompt
for a user and a password, I do have it set to a guest account, which I
designated to nobody but the user must know this and this is why I'm looking
for an easy embedded way to let hem be aware of it.

Hi everyone,
I have been googling quite a bit and going through the samba
documentation
looking for something like a banner for a share and nothing came up.
I need to setup a public share on a server that is currently running
with
server security, so I addedd the nobody account to the smbpasswd with
null
password, but I want to set a banner on the share that let people know
this.  Is this possible?
Running samba 3.0.26a on slackware 12.0


Thanks so much.
There is a comment field for the share.

Regards,
Koenraad Lelong.
