Description

Without entering username and/or password, user can still create/update a SMB connection to a public share. This makes the anonymous checkbox meaningless.

UI should

  • block user from saving if username is not entered and anonymous checkbox is not checked
  • disable username and password textfields if anonymous checkbox is checked
  • allow save/update only when username is entered or anonymous checkbox is checked

Research direction

Start by locating the SMB connection dialog and reading its save and update entry points. Trace how the anonymous checkbox and username/password fields currently affect validation and enabled state. Done means saves are blocked without a username or checked anonymous option, and the credential fields are disabled when anonymous is selected.
