Allowing file share browsing for un-authenticated users

I have a Windows Server 2003 file server in a workgroup environment
that needs to allow anyone who plugs into the network to browse its
file shares without being prompted for a username and password.
Ideally it would behave just like a Windows XP machine that has a file
share. A simple UNC path like this: \\ServerName\ should reply with
the available file shares to anyone who asks.

What is the option to get this behaviour? I can't seem to find the
local policy to get this to work.

Thanks bunches,
.
