9.3. Enabling/Disabling Guest
Accounts
Enabling guest accounts allows people to connect to shares
without authenticating (
Fig. 39
). However, there are some limita-
tions. For instance, under Windows, you will not be allowed to
connect to protected shares unless you map the share as a drive,
and there are also security issues. Some problems may also oc-
cur under the Mac OS, as well. Therefore, it is recommended
that you not enable guest accounts unless you have a high-level
of technical expertise and know exactly what you are doing.
