Question

I have following smb.conf: http://pastebin.com/gCchZQvC

Situation is that when I’m mapping my shares I need to login using my credentials to have ability to create directories and files. When I’m using applications ment to use the share as a write folder I land with write permission denied error. Is there any way to setup smb, so each pc from subnet 192.168.0.0/24 have anonymous read/write access without needing to authenticate? I think that’s the issue why I’m landing with errors.

Answer

It seems that you need to use guest account config option. It determines which local *nix account will be used for guest access.

Try something like this:

[global]
   workgroup = WORKGROUP
   server string = DareFreeBSD 
   security = share 
   hosts allow = 127.0.0.1 192.168.0.0/24
   load printers = no
   log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
   max log size = 50
   dns proxy = no * * * * *[music]
   comment = Music Share
   path = /media/music
   writable = yes
   guest ok = yes
   guest account = musicuser
   guest only = yes
[downloads]
   comment = torrent downloads
   path = /home/rtorrent/download
   writable = yes
   guest ok = yes
   guest account = rtorrent
   guest only = yes* * * * *

More info – in appropriate samba documentation.
