Yes, This is called force guest.
It maps any connections to the machine to the guest account.
It turns off the admin shares on the XP machine, too (admin$, c$).
If you are trying to use any central management tools, (For Kaspersky, in my
case), they don't work.

If you join an XP machine to a Windows domain, it gets turned off as part of
the process.
Not sure about a Samba domain, because I had done it before I joined any
machines (but I would think so....)
Here's the registry key, if you want to add it to a script....:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa]
"forceguest"=dword:00000000
