Sharing folders with everyone

I have a machine with a shared folder on it that I would like to share with everyone on my network (20 people).
There are 3 workgroups, with the users evenly divided up, and I would like everyone, no matter what privileges they have, to be able to map to this folder with their own username/password.
I have played with permissions, and cannot find any answers.

Just give "Everyone" permission to the share. That's an easy one.

enable the "guest" user in your machine or create everyone a user account with their corresponding username and password in your computer. the first option is the easiest part but the second is a more secure one. good luck!
