granting full access to a server

[Henry Zektser]

All,
I have a need to grant unrestricted anonymous access to a server. The box is
secure (network isnt net-connected) and an application requires the ability
to browse \\computer and any shares therein without it prompting for
authentication.

Ive granted Full access in share permissions and on the c:\ to ANONYMOUS
USER, SERVER\NONE, NETWORK, and Everyone (all in the domain). I have not
granted the local version of these accounts, only the AD version, but I
still get prompted for login...

How do I essentially disable all security?

Try enabling the guest account on that server [I never use it]. I have not
verified that it will work myself, but I have read that others claim it will. ---
