+This parameter is only useful in link(bf(security))(security) modes
+other than link(bf("security=share"))(security) - ie. user, server,
+and domain.
+
+This parameter can take three different values, which tell
+url(bf(smbd))(smbd.8.html) what to do with user login requests that
+don't match a valid UNIX user in some way.
+
+The three settings are :
+
+startit()
+
+it() bf("Never") - Means user login requests with an invalid password
+are rejected. This is the default.
+
+it() bf("Bad User") - Means user logins with an invalid password are
+rejected, unless the username does not exist, in which case it is
+treated as a guest login and mapped into the link(bf("guest
+account"))(guestaccount).
+
+it() bf("Bad Password") - Means user logins with an invalid
+password are treated as a guest login and mapped into the
+link(bf("guest account"))(guestaccount). Note that this can
+cause problems as it means that any user mistyping their
+password will be silently logged on a bf("guest") - and
+will not know the reason they cannot access files they think
+they should - there will have been no message given to them
+that they got their password wrong. Helpdesk services will
+em(*hate*) you if you set the bf("map to guest") parameter
+this way :-).
+
+endit()
+
+Note that this parameter is needed to set up bf("Guest") share
+services when using link(bf(security))(security) modes other than
+share. This is because in these modes the name of the resource being
+requested is em(*not*) sent to the server until after the server has
+successfully authenticated the client so the server cannot make
+authentication decisions at the correct time (connection to the
+share) for bf("Guest") shares.

+e,(BUG:) There is currently a bug in the implementation of
+bf("security=domain) with respect to multi-byte character
+set usernames. The communication with a Domain Controller
+must be done in UNICODE and Samba currently does not widen
+multi-byte user names to UNICODE correctly, thus a multi-byte
+username will not be recognised correctly at the Domain Controller.
+This issue will be addressed in a future release.
