 But you probably don't have any shares marked as 'public' or 'guest OK'.
  In user mode these don't mix well with normal authentication.

I've just created a new share with "public = yes".  I am still able to
browse and connect.

But if you connect to the public share do you have the guest id so you can write there? This may also work differently if you aren't already logged into windows with a login/pasword that matches. You probably authenticate as the matching linux user without knowing it.
