I'm sorry, but about configuring anonimous/guest, read-only share on w2k3
I do not know anithing :( Briefly, you must have build share, what you can
login without any password as "guest" user (I'm using Linux box), from
other windows or unix/linux box. Also, as I wrote, Linux does not hadle
netbios names, you should setup DNS or give the ip address explicitly for
access smb/cifs (simple windows share).

Live CD/DVD (Knoppix, RIP etc.)?

Unnattended using two some what independent boot disk. Clean Linux boot
(linuxboot.iso is it) what using clean Linux shell/perl environment for
partitioning and formatting hdd, connect to server, copy files to be
install, copy some scripts and setup for installation procedure. Important
part of the boot/setup process is mounting \\ntinstall\install share as a
guest. The mount command itself you can find in directory
"unattended root"\linuxboot\misc\master
After messages *** Trying smbmount \\ntinstall\install /z -o ...
and/or *** Trying mount.cifs \\ntinstall\install /z -o ...
When is it unsuccess you can step out to the Linux shell environment as
root (admin), and you can try some test commands:
ping {yopur server's Ip address}
if ping does not work you should check cables, or existence of ethernet
card driver:
lsmod
If driver does not exist (you can search apropriate driver module name
on the WEB or apropriate kernel documentation) but is it possible tath
you have card not supported by Linux for now. You may try using DOS boot
disk.
If ping is working, then you can try mount share, using command:
mount.cifs \\ntinstall\install /z -o username=guest
if this does not work, you can try other way:
mount.cifs \\{your server IP address}\install /z -o username=guest
or
mount.cifs \\ntinstall\install /z -o username=guest,ip={your server IP
address}
(I'm not sure, but some times I need share should be typed other way
\\\\ntinstall\\install - but it does not bother script, it is only a
manual issue)
