samba with public access
Hello friends ..

I have configured "smb" in debian machine . Created a share named "share_one" with public access and started samba service .

I am able to access the share "share_one" directly without any difficulty on linux machines.

But when it comes to windows it asks for username and password.

If I create a user on debain and provide the same username and passoword on windows then i am able to access share.

can anyone assist me on this issue ..
