David,

In a previous message, you seemed to say that you had not tested for write
access to the un-authenticated share. It may be due to my limited under-
standing of English. Please clarify.

All along, I have been assuming that the un-authenticated share access
allows no more access than would be available through a local login (if it
were allowed). I am now not sure about this: you seem to be saying that
this gives you _more_ access that through a local login. Is this the case?

If you do get more access than through a local login, the smbd process for
that share (one process per share, right?) may not be running with your
identity but with the system UIC. Could this be the case?
