Hi
My laptop running Arch + Gnome + nautilus asks for password when I try to mount passwordless samba shares from my desktop computer running Arch + KDE Plasma. Nautilus file manager shows an authentication dialog with "Anonymous" radio button already selected, I click on "Connect" button and then everything works as expected, but I want to get rid of this annoying and unexpected authentication dialog.
I have another distribution called neon unstable (based on ubuntu 20.04) running samba 4.11.6 installed on the same laptop and it can mount the same samba shares without asking for a password, then I think that there is something wrong with Gnome and/or nautilus installed on my laptop.
Here is the smb.conf file of my desktop computer:
#======================= Global Settings =====================================
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = Servidor Samba do PC
security = user
map to guest = Bad User
server role = standalone server
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
usershare path = /var/lib/samba/usershares
usershare max shares = 100
usershare allow guests = yes
usershare owner only = yes
create mask = 0777
directory mask = 2777
force create mode = 0777
force directory mode = 2777
#============================ Share Definitions ==============================
[Home Arch-PC]
comment = Home do Arch do PC
path = /home/stalker
public = yes
writable = yes
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
guest only = yes
[WD]
comment = Western Digital
path = /mnt/WD
public = yes
writable = yes
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
[SEAGATE]
comment = Seagate

Apparently there is something wrong with gvfs-smb. Thunar file manager also asks for password, but Dolphin does not.

Another thing related to this issue: when I cancel the password dialog, nautilus shows it again.
Is there a way to stop this behavior at least?
