You may just be overthinking this. Here is a snip of my config file
(only relevant portions). You may want to add the user guest to your
smbpasswd file you can even use no password, then have your guest
users authenticate with that. Maybe there is a better way but that
works for me.

[global]
	workgroup = akron
	netbios name = snoopy
	server string = Gentoo File Server
	...
	map to guest = nobody
	security = user
	...

...

[public]
	comment = Public folder for all users.
	path = /home/pub
	public = yes
	only guest = yes
	writable = yes
	printable = no

[webroot]
	comment = Storage for public web files.
	path=/home/www
	public = no
	writable = yes
	valid users = cruteme
