Here is a simple config that should do the trick -- this sets up an open
share called "public" in the WORKGROUP workgroup.
# begin smb.conf
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = Linux File Server
security = SHARE
map to guest = Bad Password
null passwords = Yes
create mask = 0775
directory mask = 0775
hosts allow = 10.0.0. 127.
[public]
path = /storage/public
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
# end smb.conf
