You need to explicitly enable share-level security instead of user-level
security for samba. To do so, open a terminal and type


Code:
--------------------
    sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf
--------------------


Scroll down to the commented line that says


Code:
--------------------
    ; security = user
--------------------


Add the following line after it


Code:
--------------------
    security = share
--------------------


Now, restart samba to let changes take effect


Code:
--------------------
    sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
--------------------
