Anonymous Logon for File Sharing without using Simple Sharing

[KM Leow]

Please teach me how to allow anonymous logon (no need to enter
user/pass) for file/printer sharing in Windows XP without using Simple
Sharing.

The Guest account will do that. Aside from that, NO user is 'logged on anonymously'

Any object allows access based on the Permissions list. Put the Guest account, (or all users) on the list.
