I am currently sharing a path off an AIX server: it's shared as read-only, guest-only; basically anyone on our net can connect to it for read-only access.

[tt]
[optical]
comment = Image Services
path = /optical
public = no
writable = no
printable = no
guest ok = yes
guest only = yes
guest account = optical
[/tt]

Any incoming connections get mapped to the userid "optical" on the unix box.

What I need to do is this:

The current ability of anyone to connect read-only w/o a u/p prompt needs to be maintained.

I need for some users to be able to connect read/write to this same share. On the unix side, they still need to map to the "optical" userid.

(Restriction: perms on the entire tree of /optical are set to 700 and due to an implementation issue, cannot be changed. The owner is userid "optical".)

In short:
connect no u/p: map to optical with r/o privs
connect with u/p: map to optical with r/w privs

Is it possible?
