    Make Windows Share Not Need "Nobody" as Username


    I am trying to make my SMB Windows share so that I don't have to type "nobody" as the username in order to get into the share. The share didn't require this before but started asking randomly a few months ago, not sure what changed.

    Appreciate the help

    Anyone have any ideas? Or does anyone know what I'm talking about?
