[NTLUG:Discuss] force group ownership

[Rob Holland (INSI)]

If you go into linuxconf, Samba file server, defaults, password tab and set
the Map To Guest = Bad User, then Windows clients will be able to browse the
Planning share through Network Neighborhood, or by mapping a drive letter,
without having to set up any additional accounts on the Linux server.
