Hi.
I think you have to add the following options to you share defenition

public = yes
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
Force user = some user @ the server # Don't know if this one will be 
needed, but try

And of course, you'll have to have the "security = share" definition in 
the [general] part of smb.conf
