Ubuntu-Windows network

[Owen Townend]

Hey,
  Open a command prompt and type this (without quotes):
  'sudo smbpasswd -a <username>'
  Where <username> is the username you want to add. It'll prompt you for
a new password. This username/password will work when windows asks for
it. If you want to be able to (insecurely) access without a password you
can use the username 'nobody' and no password.

  Hope this helps.

cheers,
Owen.
