Could the default username/password be changed to something usable with
samba out of the box.

Guest/Guest is a problem unless you set

map to guest = bad password

but this is really not a good idea as the samba smb.conf page illustrates

"Note that this can cause problems as it means that any user incorrectly
typing their password will be silently logged on as "guest" - and will not
know the reason they cannot access files they think they should - there
will have been no message given to them that they got their password
wrong. Helpdesk services will hate you if you set the map to guest
parameter this way :-)."

Could we have the default as Unattended/Unattended that way people can set
up an unattended user or set

map to guest = bad user

which is less of a problem.

Yes I know I can set the password and user many ways, but I think the
default should not be guest/guest.
