I am trying to allow a Windows 7 machine to access files on my main computer. Under Linux I just use NFS and all Linux boxes can see all network shares if they have an IP address to start with. No username and password monkey business. With SAMBA this seems impossible. The Windows machine user is presented with demand for a username and password that have never been created. The SAMBA shared directories are visible from the Windows 7 client but just un-accessible. Is it not possible to not require a user name and password combination? This is on openSUSE 12.1. There is nothing I can find on the openSUSE Wiki and I see no SAMBA articles when I look for articles at the openSUSE site. NFS just works SAMBA is non functional. The stuff I am seeing when I google is just confusing nonsense that isn't openSUSE specific.
