          @Romo Still don't know where I'm going wrong here 😞 Is this correct?

          -Modify your global config settings :
          map to guest = Bad User you wrote Bad user

          Restart your services
          systemctl restart smb.service
          systemctl restart nmb.service

          Check your folder owner and permissions again.

            @Romo It's detectable now but It prompted me to login. Realized none of my work PC's are Windows 10 and I am not sure what the account is considered locally, being an online account. [email protected] would make the domain @gmail.com

            When I restarted the services they error'd out so I just performed sudo reboot

                          Did you change your global configuration settings?

                              @wirestyle22 the change in config file should have solved the issue of the share asking you for a password. Did you check config file with testparm to check for any other errors?

                                Load smb config files from smb.conf.master
                                rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384)
                                Error loading services.
                                [root@localhost ~]#```

                                  @wirestyle22 There is something wrong with your configuration. If you created a backup of the original config start from it again.

                                  Following the guide you can just:
                                  rm smb.conf smb.conf.master
                                  cp smb.conf.bak smb.conf.master
                                  vi smb.conf.master

                                  While editing once again add: map to guest = Bad User to the global parameters section.

                                  Go to the bottom of the file and add your share details once again.

                                  [sharename]
                                  path = /chosen/path
                                  read only = No
                                  guest ok = Yes
                                  browseable = Yes 
                                  public = Yes
                                  

                                  Create your final smb.conf and check for error using:
                                  testparm -s smb.conf.master > smb.conf

                                  Restart your services:
                                  systemctl restart smb.service
                                  systemctl restart nmb.service

                                  And it should be working.

                                    That worked! I must have typo'd somewhere. I did re-read it a ton. Idk. Thanks!
