Ok! But this is not enough, you have to create a kind of dummy user on
your system and make this user a samba user.
See:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_Samba_as_a_Standalone_Server
Everything on that page related to the creation or use of a user account
falls under a section that reads "To provide authentication."
You're not trying to provide authentication. So you don't need a user
account. If you're creating a user account, then it's not a guest
account and you have to provide a password. I see why you're confused,
but that's the purpose of the "map to guest" setting. You don't need to
create an account to provide anonymous shares.
