Passwordless shares with samba

[Jose Gomez-Dans]

Hi,
Hitting a bit of a wall here. I am running Feisty, and I want to be
able to share directories from Win2k clients, but without having any
sort of passwords (it is a trusted network). I have done everything,
that to my knowledge, was needed (securtiy=share, guest account etc.).
Some Win2k computers on the network allow passwordless logins to
\\<server_name>\. Others, however require a password, and nothing
happens. In the latter, the shares can be accessed nicely if I access
them through  \\<ip_address>. No password is required, and everything
works as it should.

Anyone know what the problem might be? In the past, my server was
running on Win2k, and had the same server name...

Cheers,
Jose
