Hi am trying to setup samba on a small network with no special data i don't want every user to have to know a username and password i just want them to be able to connect read write and create new files.
this is my config at the moment:

Code:

[global]
        workgroup = BOB
        server string = Samba Server Version %v
        netbios name = centos
        interfaces = lo eth0 10.1.1.0/24
        hosts allow = 127. 10.1.1.
        map to guest = Bad User
[public]
        comment = Root
        path = /samba
        public = yes
        writable = yes
        printable = yes
        read only = No
        create mask = 0777
        directory mask = 0777
        guest only = Yes
        guest ok = Yes

but at the moment the share shows up as a printer??
how do i make it show up as a share and not a printer

That would be because you have "printable = yes"

What do you have "security" set as? You probably want it as share
