File Server Shared folder

I have a network that does not have a domain. All the clients are in a workgroup and using WindowXP Home. I would like to share a folder on a 2003 server so that everyone can access it.

I created the share but everytime they try to access it, it's always asking for username and password.

Is there any way to access the shared folder without having to enter username and password?

Thanks,
Brian
 
Creating accounts on the server to match the usernames people log on to their PCs as (including the same password) should work (at least it used to - not tried it since NT...). There's probably an easier way someone knows though.
