Samba Anonymous Login Authentication

Hey guys,
My old nas had the option for Samba Anonymous Login Authentication, I was hoping you guys could add it to my Terramaster F5-422, preferably in a way I can select it on a per share basis, so I can have a share that doesn't request a password and others that do.
Thanks, Hobba

HI! Enable the guest user, and set the shared folder permissions for the guest user.

Thank you, but this still requests credentials when the shares are accessed and requires people to know to type guest into the login, understandable when there's multiple accounts associated with one share, but otherwise a nuisance.

Enter
net use to view your network connection, the drive letter corresponding to the network connection will be displayed.

hey guys, I found my problem, I had no permissions set for the guest account, I had assumed by allowing all users that the guest account would receive permissions from that, but makes sense for security.
Thanks for the help,
Hobba
