This is the simplest setup for Samba. It will allow anyone with network access to the server to access shares without having to have a valid account/password. The following smb.conf can be used to accomplish this, please remember to replace EXAMPLE with your workgroup/domain and MACHINE_NAME with the hostname of your machine.

/etc/samba/smb.conf

[global] workgroup = EXAMPLE netbios name = MACHINE_NAME security = share browseable = yes ##example share. /home/share is available for all to read and write [share] comment = wide open samba share path = /home/share read only = No guest ok = Yes
