I had tried guest with no password, and it didn't work.  Guest with
password guest did the trick though, thanks.  Now I am wondering if
there is a way to make it automatically use that login/pass, because
it asks me for it when I first access the computer, before it lets me
see its shares, and also any time I try to access one of the shares. 
Does the gnome keyring take care of that sort of stuff?  Is there a
setting somwhere where I can try an automatic guest login?

Thanks for your help.

Kent
