Synopsis

Allowable values: Never, Bad User, Bad Password

Default: Never

If set to Bad User, allows users without accounts on the Samba system to log in and be assigned the guest account. This option can be used as part of making public shares for anyone to use. If set to Bad Password, users who mistype their passwords will be logged in to the guest account instead of their own. Because no warning is given, the Bad Password value can be extremely confusing: we recommend against it. The default setting of Never prevents users without accounts from logging in.
