Samba - The bane of my existence (smb.conf)

If you want a basic share and no password you could create a share that is
guest access only and then force an internal user and group. I do not
currently have a Linux file server up and running or I would share my conf
file with you. Interestingly enough I have had the best success digesting
options and settings for samba using webmin. Better than any GUI tool by
far.
