samba share without authentication

[François Patte]

Bonjour,

I read a lot of smb.conf that are supposed to configure samba to share a
folder without authentication (ie. everybody connected to the LAN can
access this folder) but all these config files are wrong... ie. when I
try to connect to the samba server (f27), from a windows computer, user
name and password are required!

I want to do the same for the printer connected to the samba server:
everyone connected on the LAN can use this printer without user/password...

Is that possible? And how?

Thank you.
