Samba access deny problem with guest.

I have 2 linux computer.  one is ubuntu and the other is Archlinux.
When ubuntu makes a usershare folder, archlinux can access to the ubuntu' share with guest account.
But when archlinx makes a usershare folder, ubuntu can' t access the Arch' share folder.

#smbclient -N //localhost/work
Unable to initialize messaging context
Anonymous login successful
Try "help" to get a list of possible commands.
smb: \> ls
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED listing \*

I read wiki so I had all guest option available and changed folder permisson to 777.
And I can confirm the "nobody" user and group account exist.

User account works well but only guest(nobody)  account doesn't work.

This is my smb.conf and it is almost same my ubuntu smb.conf.
why guest account doesn't work on only Archlinux ??
