[Wylug-help] FC, Samba, and permissions problems

[Gary Stainburn]

Hi John,

I tried dropping guest ok and guest only. It asked for a password then failed 
exactly the same way.
Putting guest ok and guest only back and removing valid users and force user 
still failed, but did not ask for a password

'gary' has been added using smbpasswd
